Pros

I've been working here for a good number of years and I still feel enthusiastic about the job and the company. There are a large number of issues in a company and there is so little HR can do about it. Certainly, Working-Capital can be proud of their efforts. You can't change the world in one day they say. I like that the company lives within a context without ignoring whats going on around, and that are able to measure all the variables around the HR management. All these years I've felt protected and encouraged to makes changes and offer solutions to the management without any pressure or fear. I like that. The vast majority of people have mentioned pros like free snacks and great benefits. Don't forget that this company is based in Vancouver, and Canada is very different to what you have seen in the corporate world. Here we have great training courses and career development opportunities, which most companies don't.

Cons

I would say that the interdivisional transfer of employees should happen more often and in a bigger percentage. Still, we have what we have and we are doing pretty good with it.

Pros

I don't know if you ever saw this show on UK tv called The IT Crowd, well this jobs is a bit like that but we don't live in a dungeon and I don't consider myself a freak. While we have to deal with a lot of problems, it is rewarding to help the staff at the company. I feel like having a good IT team can improved the company in so many ways. Computers are the number one tool we now need to make business. About the company and the job I have to admit that I was a little bit hesitant. I used to work for Simon Fraser University and I thought this corporate job was going to be hell on earth. I never had good thoughts about bankers or business people. In any case, the move has improved my life. I love Vancouver and the sorrounding areas. Me and my girlfriend hike all the time and we have made lots of friends. We also had some friends that moved here a while ago. That motivated the move too. The office space is outstanding and we have access to the best tools. We have been working on some projects to improve the managements system of the company so it is really rewarding to see that the company can give you a green pass to work on something that is not really "work"

Cons

At times it can be very very busy. Stormy days mess up the internet connection, computers crash, people spill coffee...things like that. We are also in charge of some other equipment at the office that are not computers, like printers, which I hate with passion. Again, corporate world can be a bit annoying. Most people are nice but there are some unstable characters around. IT department is solid and we work well together.
