Hi, I'm sorry you feel this way. There are many issues, please let me address them: For HR and any related issues such as questions of harassment, please address these issues with the HR director, F. Achim. These matters are not taken lightly but if we are unaware, we cannot take appropriate actions. As you mention, there has not been raises for everyone lately but we have had profit sharing for the last two years to compensate. All matters regarding the furniture and decor are an issue of the past, we are moving to our new offices and will have new furniture and brand new office environment. For the COOP, it is a mandatory program for all employees. It is addressed as such in all documentation from the day a job offer is made. It is a very advantageous RRSP program that let's you invest in the company where you work, where you can make a difference, the COOP owns 43% of TEC after all. If you have any other issues, please come see your management, our doors are always open.

Pros

A relaxed, low-stress work environment with flexible hours, allowing for a healthy work-life balance.

Cons

Poor upper management, inconsistent quality control, and a lack of clear direction or vision. Additionally, pay cuts were illegally enforced without employee consent or proper contract amendments, leaving staff without financial stability or plans for reimbursement. The workplace also offers very little room to gain experience or advance professionally, limiting opportunities for growth.

Pros

Great technical team to work with, very knowledgeable and supportive. Our VP was very collaborative and supportive across anything, would communicate on strategy and help us understand the business value behind what we do. Great mentor. Loved the autonomy and the flexibility on how to achieve what was expected from me.

Cons

The rest of the company, I didn't know anything about except, there's no communication from anywhere and it was hard understanding the vision or where we are going. Financial issues with pay cuts and layoffs which were said to be temporary but communication on them was never clear afterward.
