      (HFX) New Hires - Be Warned

      Anonymous employee

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      * Great Pay * Decent benefits * Seems like some parts of the workforce are good to work with

      Cons

      * Horrendously disorganized * Massive purge of upper management occurred to detoxify the culture * Remaining middle management still saturated with abusive and toxic people * Absolutely no on-boarding for new employees, basically given a laptop and expected to be productive on day two. * Outrageous expectations to immediately be productive on massive projects without any on-boarding or guidance * Extremely confused management layer * Expectations set in interviews were misleading or completely false * New hires thrust into absolute disaster projects

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Salary and relocation package if you can negotiate Flexible working time around the core hours

      Cons

      Engineering is way far from agile and Agile. Engineering management is deaf, it's only keen to deliver project by project by any means, shifting any advice for improvement to "the next time". The company is clearly shifting to US.

      Pros

      Excellent past accomplishments. Done some great work in Space Systems Engineering.Great Work Experience.

      Cons

      Climbing the career ladder is nearly impossible or very biased. Toxic work environment. Willingness to listen to the engineers is non existent. Old fashioned strict hierarchical management.
