Pros

Benefits are great. Best in my career.

Cons

Middle management is a sad group. Lack of leadership has made this a sinking ship. A lot of meaningless talk and backstabbing. Could have been great but left with incompetent sr leader. No integrity.

Pros

Mostly incredible, fun and talented people Company products have a lot of potential Multinational company and so possibility of relocation Subsidized personal trainer Lively sports and social club

Cons

Disconnect between senior management and staff A lot of "smoke and mirrors" types of discussion Shockingly low salaries and refusal to address this Terrible bonuses Unjust performance review structure Some of the technology used in the company is very dated Some confrontational members of management Poor communication both internally and between Firecrest and its parent company Knowledge gaps left after senior staff have left in recent months Very little room to move forward and progress Favouritism Some cumbersome and shoddy processes
