Pros
- Easy job to get as a new grad with no experience - Office is located in Gastown, close to Skytrain - Monday - Friday 6:30am - 2:30pm (was nice to get off early in the summer)
Cons
- Was shocked to see positive reviews on here. Metasoft is a nightmare (looks like many of the positive reviews are new, short term employees) - Incredibly low pay, my salary was $21,000/year before taxes (works out to be about $11/hr) - Please do not be fooled. Helping NonProfits is not the goal, the bottom line is all that matters. - Employees are pressured to sell an over-priced subscription to an out of date software database. Metasoft promises a "Money-back Guarantee" to Nonprofits, but there are a ton small print and hoops the NonProfits must jump through. Even if they meet all the requirements, CEO Trevor avoids signing off on the reimbursement cheques at all costs. - Metasoft is a toxic environment with a high turnover rate. It is a revolving door of people. - No opportunity for promotions or development -Ultimately, I just couldn’t continue to lie to Nonprofits to get money for a greasy, morally corrupt CEO. -When I landed the interview at my current job, the interviewer laughed when she saw Metasoft on my resume. She said she had only survived a month as a Metasoft Employee and asked how I stayed so long! I am now the Executive Director of a NonProfit and every time Metasoft calls to sell me their useless software, I politely decline
