Pros

*Flexible and understanding of work/life/family needs, strives to be a long-term and stable employer. *Compensation is fair for the local market and is direct deposit, on time. *Management is highly supportive of staff who take up initiatives to improve company opportunities and culture. *Super easy access via transit for the commute. *Supportive team members, good camaraderie.

Cons

*Cost of living in Vancouver is atrocious. *Being part of a small business that is trying to compete against bigger and better-funded competition can be stressful. *Not enough skilled staff for some of the tasks we set out to accomplish. (see previous point)

Pros

- Screwups have minimal consequences, so you can make mistakes and learn from them - Pay above average

Cons

- Top management at the company refused to put anything in an email or writing, as they would change their minds constantly about product/direction/code/everything and then insist that they 'never said that'... kind of a "we've always been at war with X." history rewriting exercise - Physical paycheques were often given out after 6pm on Fridays so that employees couldn't cash them until Monday so management could 'move some money around' - Dependent on a very small number of big clients - Employed a number of minimum-wage grunts to manually log into client machines and fix the constant stream of broken orders instead of fixing the software itself
