Pros

This company has an awesome culture and definitely wants its employees to thrive and grow, and Enjoy working for the company. Staff across the company (at least from what I've experienced) feel comfortable sharing different challenges being experienced in the role, knowing that they are able to share and look for a solution without being punished for it. I've felt very welcome and encouraged since I arrived. My supervisor has encouraged me to learn as much as I can so I'm not in an entry-level position forever, and that's definitely something I'm seeing in other roles as well. Team leads want to grow and improve, and want their team members to improve

Cons

I live in Canada, and the company is based out of the states. There are some process differences which are being frustrated when it comes to trying to streamline/match processes across the border. At least for the role I'm in, there aren't a lot of documented processes, and requests to make a formal, written process have been ignored sometimes. This isn't from leadership, but just from other members of other departments. Depending on your work, you definitely have to be willing to push and advocate for changes that you want. While there's communication from the executive level and down about how the company id doing, communication between departments is sparse, so silos are a bit of a challenge.

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.
