      I have been working at TELUS full-time

      Pros

      Excellent culture; friendly place; beautiful building

      Cons

      Coming from a smaller team and company, I could immediately feel the disconnection from being in the loop, but that is the nature of a large, global company. Not necessary a bad thing, however. As I said, it's just the way it is
