Pros
It is a shame to read such negative reviews about M-Brain, and more specifically, the Toronto office, when the same sentiments are not expressed or ever felt within our office. To the contrary, our office is comprised of extremely hard-working, intelligent, and supportive individuals who generally care about the future of the company. I can speak for myself and many colleagues whom I have personally heard express the same sentiments that I can't imagine a better workplace culture. I generally go to work excited every day, and that speaks volumes. Much of this can be attributed to upper management at the Toronto office being incredibly supportive with a clear focus on learning and mentoring. Key pros include:
1. Supportive workplace culture and good work-life balance
2. Highly intelligent, down-to-earth, fun colleagues
3. Colleagues focus on going above and beyond and making real, positive impacts on clients
4. Flexible upper management that care about its people and provide real opportunities for learning and career development
5. Diverse responsibilities and different learning opportunities (nothing is repetitive, never bored)
6. Goals-oriented, plenty of opportunities for challenges and individual growth
Cons
While there has been a lot of talk about M-Brain's global operations facing some real challenges, this can be expected from any acquisition, and is likely only a temporary hiccup. This has not been felt so much at the Toronto office, especially in the day-to-day. The good news is that management cares and positive strides are being taken by setting and communicating a clear vision.
