Toxic Culture and Management

Pros

Easily to fly under the radar and do the bare minimum. Pay is good. If you're looking for something short term its an option.

Cons

The person with the check the box review is spot on. Company strives to do the bare minimum to save money, they really only care about getting product out the door. A toxic, fend for yourself culture, where everyone is constantly complaining which makes work miserable. Upper management is a good ole boys club that only promotes their favorite yes men so nothing ever changes. Something needs to change at the executive/C-suite level to build a better culture, Lyne Castonguay seemed to be helping drive that, but of course they kicked her to the curb and went back to one of their good ole boys.

Pros

Work hours are fairly stable

Cons

Upper management lacks leadership and intelligence. Senior ranking officers are not capable of adapting to changing environments. Too much politics, promotions are not given to the most competent individuals, instead, promotions are given through social committees. Growth only occurs through acquisitions and there is no program of standardization. Upper Management is very ego centric, does not like being challenged, and have their own method of doing things. As a result, it is very easy to become disconnected from the market and to lose pertinent job skills, which will hurt you in the long-run.. . No career or intellectual growth.
