Pros

The office was full of intelligent people, a strong interest in working hard and getting things done. Definitely a good collection of brain power.

Cons

Very awkward and cold office surroundings, people were generally unfriendly. A perfect example was "beer friday", while it was great to have such an offering, everyone would typically take their drinks and chips and go back to their desks. Also, the bathroom there was a chamber of horrors!

Pros

Was a genuinely great place to work. Great people and great culture. It was worth the slightly-lower-than-average pay because work life balance and benefits were great. I enjoyed going to work every day.

Cons

Poor financial decisions from upper management regarding the shareholder program led to the company's demise. Upper management sold out to WSP. Management made millions while long time employees got zilch. As someone else had mentioned, retention bonuses were unfairly distributed. Most people didn't get any retention bonus even if they had been long time employees of the company. It really felt like everyone who wasn't upper management got stabbed in the back. They got their payout then dumped the company. Still stings to this day.
