Cons: I have enjoyed my experience in London. However, the risk manager's performance in London has left much to be desired, to say the least. She demonstrated a disheartening lack of foundational knowledge in her role. This not only hindered effective risk management but also undermined the confidence of the team she's supposed to lead. Despite numerous attempts to provide constructive feedback, she remained obstinately defensive, refusing to acknowledge her shortcomings and blaming her team for mistakes we often did not make. One of the most glaring issues is her habitual tardiness and dismissive attitude towards meetings. Punctuality is not just a matter of courtesy but a reflection of professionalism and respect for others' time. Furthermore, her tendency to employ scare tactics fostered an atmosphere of anxiety and distrust rather than constructive problem-solving. Interpersonal skills are paramount in any managerial position, yet she appears to lack them entirely. She failed to celebrate the team's successes, instead focusing solely on shortcomings and assigning blame. This blame-shifting behavior not only erodes team morale but also highlights her inability to take responsibility for her own actions. In light of these deficiencies, it's evident that she is ill-suited for a managerial role. Rather than fostering a collaborative environment conducive to effective risk management, she exacerbates tensions and impedes progress. I would suggest that she reassess her career path and consider roles better aligned with her skillset and temperament.

Pros: Get to work with cool tech, and there are some great people here.

Cons: The comp team doesn’t understand Canada and market norms. It’s this constant pressure to raise the bar for average pay. I believe this is worse outside of engineering too. There’s no RRSP matching, even though the recruiter promised it was coming during my recruitment process. There are no bonuses. The company outsources lots of functions to save costs – doesn’t really scream “cares about local communities” to me. Hiring and promotions are slow due to zero headcount growth over the last three years.
