NORR Reviews

All cons are on the upper management side, so keep your distance: • Always understaffed and overtime seems to be always the answer when extra help is needed. The four “executives” on the corner are more concerned about their profits, so proposals are more focused on dollars rather than on productivity, quality and understanding the complexity of a project. • All workplaces are political to some extent, but NORR Toronto is the winner. Hard to advance and the few promotions seems to be for the “good suckers” and not for the “good employees”. • Very old school design approach. Zero investment in new technologies and research, no laser-cutter and the only 3d printer available is just collecting dust. • Be aware, one mistake is all it takes to be bullied or laid-off. Some people will take it on you personally and make your life miserable.

The worst managed company I have ever experienced in my entire career. Management runs this office like a sweatshop and approaches the staff like they are all replaceable. Not the approach you want to take to maintain staff. Which they don't. Currently running an average of 12 person/year turnover. That's not normal for a 40+ person office. Every project is understaffed with management purposefully ignoring the staff's continued begging for help and resources.
