Pros

Make sure you know your team and team members before you join Do not fall for any trap or mis-leading by old members in the team May be to look good or be in good books of management - Senior employee try to direct you with wrong information about the work.

Cons

I was hired for BRP on full time. French only communication in meetings and daily routine Do not share or atleast try to accommodate non-french speaking person Do not give time to settle or know all the work process and can be lay of in first month itself. Management politics Favoritism only for French speaking Act very nice on your face and something wrong -inappropriate to management-that too not work related on your back Management is not sure what they want and senior associated in the company mislead you with wrong direction for the work- result is new hire person is hired within a month.

The products blind you from reality

Pros

It is fun to work for a company where you have a product portfolio for mainly an upper-class customer and get the chance by occasions (depending on your function) to experience the excitement of the novelties. Salary is market conform and additional employees benefits. Opportunities for youngsters who want to prove themselves. Very dedicated teams in all regions to reach or stretch the targets.

Cons

North-America and Canadian markets have focus which impacts decisions for other regions. The management peers are subjective. To ensure they stay in the club of management and secure their own position - it is seldom that job cuts are happening on a high and mid-management level. The employees bonus is based upon personal performance and company performance. The personal part should be measured by objective KPI's but in many functions they are missing so it can be considered as influential. You will be confronted with an overload of work

Innovation on Paper, Problems in Practice

Pros

• Flexible schedules. • Access to complex, technically demanding design projects connected to real users and performance needs. • Competitive and dignified salary if negotiated well (not applied equally to everyone). • Excellent pension plans. • Access to company vehicles (this genuinely builds product enthusiasm; I became a real Can-Am and Sea-Doo user). • Free French classes. • Discounts with external companies. • Multiple buildings and facilities available (in theory).

Cons

• Strong micromanagement culture across departments; lack of trust is systemic and affects autonomy, motivation, and efficiency. • Workplace culture is highly competitive; colleagues may seek recognition at the expense of others’ work. • Diversity and inclusion are mostly performative. Language and cultural barriers lead to exclusion, while initiatives like “Yellow Day” focus on appearances rather than real action against discrimination. • Management and leadership often lack external experience; many leaders have spent their entire careers at BRP, limiting openness to new ideas, modern leadership practices, and human values. • Expertise and professional background are frequently overlooked, leading to frustration and disengagement. • Workload distribution is unfair; responsibilities increase without discussion, recognition, or proper support. • Movement between buildings or teams is unnecessarily restricted, even when justified. • Salary practices are inconsistent; Latino and immigrant employees are often underpaid compared to their responsibilities and experience. • Buildings are poorly maintained and often dirty, with little visible upkeep. • Overall, the lack of trust, excessive control, and weak leadership overshadow individual talent and effort.
