Pros

The peers are great mostly because you’re all trauma-bonding in the trenches. • Good for a resume line in fintech if you only plan on staying long enough to find the exit.

Cons

This isn’t a workplace; it’s a high-stress surveillance state. From the moment you clear onboarding, it’s made abundantly clear that leadership views employees as line items and liabilities, not human beings. • The "Big Brother" Culture: Management is obsessed with control. Expect to be monitored, measured, and stripped of any autonomy. If you enjoy being treated like a child who can’t be trusted to manage their own time or tasks, you’ll love it here. • Leadership’s Ego: The leadership style is archaic "command-and-control." Feedback is technically "allowed," but in practice, questioning a process is seen as an act of rebellion. They don’t want innovators; they want compliant drones. • The Retention Meat-Grinder: Turnover is astronomical, and leadership’s response is to double down on the same toxic policies that caused people to leave in the first place. They treat "burnout" as a personal failing rather than a predictable result of their own atmosphere. • Benefits & Flexibility: Absolute bottom-of-the-barrel. In an era where professional flexibility is standard, this company clings to restrictive, punitive policies regarding time off and personal needs. They demand 110% loyalty while offering 0% empathy. The "culture initiatives" are an insult to everyone’s intelligence it's like putting a fresh coat of paint on a sinking ship.

Pros

Very friendly and supportive team. There are a lot of opportunities to learn and grow within the team and both manager and colleagues are appreciative of the team efforts. Manager is very understanding about making mistakes and learn from failures.

Cons

Nothing to share as Cons. In VoPay I grew and learned a lot.

Pros

Honestly? None... maybe the location: the office is located at the Bentall Tower, next to Burrard station.

Cons

The positive reviews are misleading and I would encourage reading the other comments as well. There is a toxic culture where employees are treated more like resources than people, with micromanagement and cameras everywhere in the open space. The workload is heavy, with a lot of pressure on delivery, and benefits are limited, with high turnover. While the team is generally friendly, people are often overwhelmed and there is little real connection between colleagues, which makes the environment unfulfilling and not enjoyable to work in. Vacation policies are also very inflexible; it sometimes feels like, if it were possible, employees would be discouraged from taking time off at all. Low benefits. Most people do not stay long, often only a few months to a year. Those who remain longer tend to be newcomers who have limited alternatives due to immigration constraints.
