      Pros

      Interesting projects Opportunity to wear many "hats" (analysis + testing)

      Cons

      At MDA, people tend to become generalists, not specialists. Pay could be better, but this can be said for the entire industry in Montreal (and possibly Canada). After 3-5 years, it may start to feel repetitive.

      Pros

      -Very interesting work. -Can be hands on if you choose. -Great coworkers and company culture. -Good mentoring from experienced engineers. -Unlimited sick leave. -Possibility to bank time is great.

      Cons

      -HR often don't respond to emails (overworked). -HR and engineers union are often in conflict. -Having a union representing engineers can be a double edged sword. Salary brackets are clearly defined by the union so not much wiggle room for negociation of salary. -Very little vacation (2 weeks a year).
