Pros

- Good snacks in pantry - Amazing colleagues

Cons

The management is both passive aggressive and micro aggressive. Which is an amazing feat in itself. Things like sighing too loudly or not responding to good morning greetings can lead to them being unhappy with you. Big brother is always watching. Employees don’t talk to each other in the company using Teams or the company wifi. We use our own mobile data and other communication platforms just to have some privacy. There’s a obsessive emphasis on creating a “positive work environment”. This “core company value” borders on ridiculous because the only ones bringing down the “positive work environment” is the management. Management wants everyone to stay healthy. Which is why they weigh you every month and announce to the entire office if you’ve gained or lost weight. You’re also expected to join in on after office hours sports activities that happen weekly and will face micro aggressions if you don’t attend. You’re to bring your computer home everyday so that you’re contactable and able to work at all hours because “the industry demands that you put in the hours”. You can expect to have meetings, appraisals, and “casual discussions” scheduled at the last minute, after office hours, pretty regularly. These can take go on up to 3 hours without any time off or OT pay. The list goes on. Read everyone else’s reviews. They aren’t lying. The management is going to say things like “derogatory remarks directed at undermining our company’s core value” and “be wary of info on the internet”. When you interview with them and ask them about it, they’re going to say that it’s employees that have grudges against them. Just know that we write these so that job seekers don’t make the same mistake as we did of joining this company.

Pros

- Nice office - Good exposure to different clients from different industries. - My ex-co-workers were helpful, capable, and fun to work with.

Cons

- Management tend to be resistant to suggestions and do not respond well to feedback being given - "Constructive criticism" can get personal and affect employee's emotional health. - Copious amount of work to be completed within an extremely tight deadline. - Policies always change. - Termination is frequent and random. - Senior management will gossip about staff and clients. - Gives empty promises. - Staff must make sure that everything is in black and white. - Have zero regards for your boundary and intrude into your personal life. - One particular senior manager is of questionable character. His choice of words are often inappropriate, unprofessional, degrading and upsetting. One time, I was told that I am better off working in an environment where my contributions will not make a difference to the company. He then added that "everything I have just said is off the record".
