Pros
Employees have passion for what they do. Solid benefits. Lots and lots of company events, draws, BBq's, Dunk Tanks, Ping Pong Tables, Softchoice Cares, Collaborative environment. Many, many great managers. Access to great technology. Company is growing and fast. Many employees have been here for 10, 12, and 15 years plus, so very stable environment. Opportunities for advancement and training. Mandatory reviews and IDP's. Good place to start your career or continue one in progress
Cons
Softchoice is going through a large up-tick with hiring and growth. When ever a company does this there are growing pains, which are known and being addressed, but in the meantime, there are some processes that are dated and need updating. Manager training is lacking, but again being addresses with new programs. Salaries are a little under market value, but not totally out of wack. The sales teams are experiencing the largest growth and have the biggest pains, but it you stick it out through the training, you will be set up for great success and growth. Many of the new hires I guess feel entitled and are not willing to put in the time, but once you do the potential for good money is there. The ONL monthly calls are very heavy on numbers and sales and other teams get ignored with their additions to the 'bottom-line' and more employee recognition is needed across non-sales teams.
