Pros

Good pension match, ok salary

Cons

Diabolical mismanagement of the technology function which Vincent is happy to hide his head in the sand about. Making decisions with zero due diligence is a bad look and then doubling down on those decisions even though everyone can see it's a bad decision is even worse. They've quietly reversed a few recent decisions, but it's really poor leadership when you can't own up to your mistakes and admit that you got it wrong and take steps to avoid doing so again the future. The values are a complete and utter joke. Multiple people have reported unethical behaviour of leadership to whistleblower/ombuds functions and been quickly dispatched of in the next reorg which leads to a culture of fear and yes-men.

Pros

I used to love working here. I love the people I work with. The level of clients we get to work with is great. National, International brands.

Cons

Frequent reorganizations, salaries are not even keeping up with inflation (which is not a "merit" increase, additional responsibilities for no additional compensation, frequent layoffs and offshoring. When layoffs occur, there are always several positions / responsibilities that are not backfilled and no longer owned by anyone. Changing work from home / hybrid / full time back in office policies continue to change. Employees no longer trust the leadership. There is no stability. There is no incentive to do great work. It has not been valued.
