Pros

Downtown progressive company. Free coffee?

Cons

Major changes in the IT side of the house and spilling over into other areas of the business. AGILE/SCRUM team methodology has turned into a cult, some exciting work to be done but there is no longer an upward path of progression. You're there to work in a loud/noisy environment, and if you don't like it or you don't perform well you're fired. Be prepared to be under the microscope now by not just your boss, but your peers as well -- since everyone works at a bench in wide open room. No privacy, reduced opportunities.. I'm not sure this is the "best employer in Canada" anymore. Best employer in Bangalore maybe?

Lots of different roles within the chain of command so different objectives are being passed down Sometimes hard to feel if you're making a difference

Thank you for the positive feedback. Our Associates are at the heart of our strong company culture and are truly what makes AIR MILES such a great place to work! We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the benefits and events offered to our Associates, as well as our remote-first working model. We appreciate your perspective on feeling as though your work makes a difference. We strongly believe that our people are our greatest asset and that the work done at all levels of the organization contributes to our success as a business. During our January Business Update, our Executive team shared our Strategic Imperatives for 2023 and the ways we will continue to scale as an organization to help Associates under the "big picture" and where their role fits in. We also recently introduced a new Goal Setting process to better align with our quarterly planning process, and to encourage more regular conversations about goals between Leaders and Associates. For Associates with questions regarding the impact of their role, we encourage you to speak to your leader or Manager Once Removed for guidance. Thanks again for your feedback, and all the best.
