Pros: Perks (great office spaces, lunches, etc.). Respectable company that is reasonably well known in eastern Canada. High autonomy and high trust if your values align with the company. Brilliant people that care a lot. The company is much larger now than when I joined. Many things have changed. Your manager will really dictate your experience, which rolls up to director/VP. There are many great teams working on challenging problems.

Cons: The company was always product-focused, with development skill being the highest valued. This is shifting in favour of product management. Product teams report up through general managers, most of whom were product managers. Many teams are still striking an okay balance, but power is definitely shifting towards product. Estimates are no longer WAGs. Departments are inconsistent. Offices are inconsistent. You will be fine if you thrive on chaos and learning the differences. It is not for everyone, though. Many managers/directors are inexperienced. It is a growing company with good opportunities for people, but you may end up under someone who you need to handle things they are not ready for. This gives you the opportunity to try more senior responsibilities before they are yours, but if you are expecting a clear vision, you will be disappointed.

Pros: - Lots to learn - Really nice co-workers

Cons: Not at all, zero cons.

Pros: A good place to work.

Cons: Due to COVID, most of my job was remote, and there was a community aspect missing because of that.
