Pros

- They conned some pretty stellar non-management people to work there. - Nice office location. You don't have to fight downtown traffic, and have views of the waterfront.

Cons

- All other perks like spending money on office snacks, the gym, video games, company parties, are used against staff later when they have any legitimate complaints, so I can't put the perks as a pro (e.g. "how can you complain about our culture? We have ViDeO gAmEs!") - Management are allowed to be direct with feedback (often aggressive as well) but if anyone else is not simperingly sweet while delivering criticism, they're vilified and labeled as hard to work with. - Few people are allowed to do their job - the executives have a vision for how goals should specifically be accomplished, do not ask for feedback about that vision, and then expect everyone to follow marching orders. - Lots of dodging different governments (e.g. US, Australia) to make sure websites that are advertising illegal behavior don't get shut down in those regions, and keep making money, which is exhausting. - HR and management work together to sweep serious complaints (e.g. sexual harassment) under the rug.

Pros

- They pay for your cellphone bill and health insurance - There were once some awesome people who worked here, however, they are all quitting - Work/life balance is pretty good - HR are lovely and they do care, unfortunately they are handcuffed by an incompetent and unqualified executive team who are simply in those roles due to seniority in the industry and being friends with each other. - The ex-CEO is a great person and there are very faint traces of his legacy left - key term: very faint. New leadership has destroyed this place.

Cons

- A workplace where dreams go to die - When I started here, I was ambitious, confident and celebrated in my field. When I left, I was so torn down, abused and defeated that I questioned whether I was good enough to be working within my discipline and was considering a full career change.

 - Extreme sexism, gaslighting and abuse. Newcomers to Canada are often paid far less than their white counterparts for the same roles. Women are routinely passed over for promotions and treated with an immense double standard in comparison to their male counterparts. - Many recruiters in Eastern Canada gave told me directly that they don’t want to touch this place with a ten foot pole because its reputation has gotten to be so bad. - 
Client industries are legally questionable at best. This creates extreme secrecy and an environment that's okay with bending the rules, trickling into how employees are treated and what kind of behaviour is tolerated.
