Pros

Great company culture.

Great people, depending on the team.

Interesting work, depending on the team.

For the most part, people are honest and there's no BS.

Decent work-life balance.

Cons

Compensation is low, especially compared to California and Texas, even when take-home pay and cost of living are factored in.

Advice to Management

Compensation should be improved to reduce turnover, and because Toronto/Markham has a very high cost of living.
