Tucows Reviews

Pros

- lifestyle and health allowance - remote working - flexible working hours

Cons

- little to no progression - mundane tasks every day - don’t feel like a team

Pros

Work from home, even pre covid lots of benefits stock options they send you a computer of your choice (Mac or HP) 3 weeks of training (paid)

Cons

weird hours similar to working at a hotel restaurant hours, any day of the week, from 6am starts to 7pm starts.

Pros

Health and lifestyle benefits were really the only great things about working here

Cons

There is zero progression so if you want to just work a menial job then this is for you.

Pros

Flexible work schedule Somewhat supportive management team Liberal work from home policy Little to no stress in accomplishing the tasks

Cons

Extremely poor career advancement opportunities. Candidates are preselected for roles, and then Job postings are rolled out. Little to no appreciation when you put in the time and effort. Management has no clue how to keep high achievers happy or recognized for that matter. You will encounter negative behaviours of work avoidance, and management does nothing. Endless call volume.

Pros

- work from home option even before the pandemic - cool coworkers - free food when in office

Cons

- management needs work. A LOT of work. It’s hard being completely open with management about issues since job security is non existent. - “seniors” which are the supervisors lack diversity. Mainly white males and not enough women or people of colour. This is really showing of a company especially at a time like this. A BLM post does not suddenly fix your diversity issues. -no opportunities for growth. Yearly raises are literal pennies even if you have done well throughout the year. - management again. - the CEO is basically a ghost we hear about every once in a while. - clear priority goes out to their Toronto office. No room for growth in their St. Catharines office. The building is outdated and frankly seems unsafe. - their best employees still don’t feel as such. There’s not enough gratitude and if there is, it’s all words. The company is well off enough to give more to the employees rather than slashing customers bills for absolutely no reason. - you will feel overworked immediately when you start the job

Pros

Work from home and remote flexibilty

Cons

There is a concerning lack of leadership at all levels within the organization. Changes are implemented with little thought given to the big picture and how changes will impact the parties who have to carry out the implementation and for the staff which will be handling the result of said changes. The organization claims to be about diversity and a 'meritocracy' but little room is provided for employees to demonstrate such merit. Unless you are an extrovert who is comfortable 'shutting up and playing ball' with your superiors you will not be provided any opportunity to advance. Diversity consists of 30 minute e-learning courses. Employees who spend the day shopping and/or on social media are given opportunity and promoted. Independent thought is not encouraged, you are expected to communicate only with your direct superior and when there is a lack of action/results you are disciplined for taking action yourself and speaking up about the challenges you face in your role.

Pros

Amazing team that doesn’t judge your experience. Helpful, Fun, and challenging work.

Cons

None come to mind at the moment.
