Pros

Good technology used in this company. Good compensation compared to other local companies. Good people to work with. Very structured in SDLC and tools used. Good for getting started; you can learn a lot here.

Cons

Some overtime, but it doesn't always happen. It depends on the team you are in.

It's hard to get promoted in Montreal, maybe anywhere on this point.

It's hard to get visibility in Montreal.

Something about the command of the financial industry: they lay off people every year. Very little bonus compared to NY, I guess.

Advice to Management

Consider more about promotions for IT professionals.
