Pros

Casual work environment. Pizza lunches once every two weeks. Nice offices in central Gatineau. Most people are casually friendly.

Cons

Widespread misery as BlackBerry went down. Two waves of mass layoffs at the end of 2013. Hugely demoralizing, and they haven't stopped since. People do the minimum to talk to each other, the rest of the time they're silo'd. Little sense of mission. In that sense it's not unusual for a consultancy.

Pros

Get a front row seat on the action that surrounds building new software! Understand industry trends, get insights into new tech, and work with an award winning company.

Cons

A lot of expectations upfront on new hires - minimal guidance and knowledge sharing.

Pros

A culture of empowerment, and a management team that is truly committed to making Macadamian a great place to work.

Cons

As is typical with most consulting organizations, you can't always control which projects you will be working on next.
