Pros

Work with good people Company makes a great product

Cons

The way this company is run in both Canada and the US is ridiculous. Promises are always made to the company as a whole and individual employees that are never kept. Things are always going to “get better and change to help the company improve” Pay is terrible even after receiving great performance reviews Long days and no flexibility. Management has no management experience and embarrasses employees in front of the entire office on the daily Management throws their own employees under the bus to cover up for their own mistakes. Lots of favouritism for specific employees (who are under performing and don’t deserve it) If you’re an outside sales rep you don’t even have to make sales and can work here for years and receive promotions and praise.

Pros

The brand is amazing and you can see remnants of fun that used to make this place unique like the beer fridge and minimal hierarchy. They have decent time off when shutdowns are included.

Cons

The current CEO waffles between crying in town halls to screaming at teams in morning stand up meetings then sending emails about how various people and teams are the best she has ever worked with. You never know which mood you will get. Sales goals are not achievable and layoffs are frequent. Long-time employees avoid promotion because they want to survive so they have to keep bringing in outside management and then they either fire them or they leave often in under a year.
