Fun and challenging but corporate and HR ruins it
Feb. 2, 2023 - Test Expert in Montreal, QCRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Fun and challenging work with plenty of travel, paid overtime, flexible hours and vacations, coworkers are very nice as well as immediate management (some of them actually care very much). Okayish benefits and option of a 50% share buying match.
Cons
Plagued by the traditional corporate issues: Salary increases are small, trying to reinvent the wheel in terms of some policies that in the end are mostly disliked by the employees. Justify more workload by blaming worker shortage. Low career advancement opportunities. In the past 10-20 years, talking from long term employees, it's been mostly cost cutting with less and less advantages and future outlook looks like more cuts are on the way.

Not bad could be better
Mar. 2, 2023 - Software Developer I in Saint-Laurent, QCRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
The salary was decent, especially for a fresh graduate, and the background requirements were not very strict. The coworkers were very friendly and helpful.
