Pros

Hard working team. Collaboration and quality work even when requested at the drop of a hat. Team is agile and lean doing the work of 2-3 associates. Top talent.

Cons

Long hours. Zero work life balance and not encouraged from senior leaders. Do as I say not as I do mentality. Leadership needs to live the principals and they do not. Financial systems are very outdated and if you want quality analysis you must invest in systems to foster growth. All data is kept in excel which is a nightmare.

Pros

Can bring your dog to work. Reasonably flexible work environment; Casual Dress code. Nice job at keeping everyone informed on what's happening in global and other divisions via the monthly town-hall style meeting that happens each month.

Cons

Clique at the Executive Management Level in Canada; Career progression ad hoc; Very poor sales systems. Canada has minimum autonomy and is largely governed by U.S. Head organizations in each of the divisions. Average age would be in 30's and 40's, so diversity is limited as much as the company talks about this as something they want to work on (opportunity on all fronts: age, gender, race).

Pros

Good benefits and nice winter garden

Cons

No respect for employees. Factory mentality by instituting badging in like a time clock. Lunch reduced to 30 min but nothing accessible within 30 min except cafeteria. Location is horrific; continuous traffic bottlenecks. Many managers practice micromanagement and favoritism. HR is cutthroat and treats good employees disrespectfully. Employee concerns are not fairly represented. Mars principles solely in control.
