Pros

WillowTree has some of the best and most engaged group of developers, designers, and testers that I have ever had the pleasure of working with. Everyone here loves what they do and it really shows. It's a fairly flat organization where everyone has the ability to make an impact and everyone gets the opportunity to interact with clients. I really appreciate this trust that management puts into their employees and I think it makes for an overall better work experience. I am also consistently amazed by the diversity and quality of clients and work that WillowTree continues to retain. I have been able to do the best work of my life here and I'm grateful that I consistently get new and exciting projects to work on. I really can't express how great this place is.

Cons

We've grown really fast over the past year and we've started running out of space, but I think our new office buildout should alleviate some of that issue.

Pros

Lots of really nice, and smart people who are very collaborative and excited to share their knowledge. This is not a prestigious place to work, so I was a bit surprised by just how smart and competent people are at WillowTree or TELUS Digital, whatever our name is. The offices are great and the office culture is ridiculously good. Huge shoutout to the employees (it's def not upper management) who go out of their way to make the office culture great. Depending on what project you're on, it can be a pretty chill place to work. If you're early in your career and need experience, the variety of projects makes this a genuinely good opportunity.

Cons

The biggest con is the compensation. It's so terrible, and far below the industry standard that I don't really see how anyone could stay here long term. They don't give raises, no one is getting promotions. There's also quite a lot of restructuring going on, and very poor communication about it. Which is par for the course in the tech industry at this point, but worth noting. It feels relatively stable for now, but I really have trouble seeing how their tech services division is going to survive as AI decreases the cost to build software. Plus, tech services as part of TELUS Digital doesn't really make any sense long term. It's a contact center business with a bunch of people that randomly make expensive mobile apps? It seems to be making enough money for now to keep going, but I feel like that could change any moment.
