Pros

This is a pretty good place to work. Good team atmosphere. A lot of knowledgeable people to work with. Good chances for advancement.

Cons

Communication from upper management would be nice. Letting lower management gets their jobs down with lower interference would be great. Could support employees more.

Pros

Excellent upward mobility if that is what you would like to do. Management has a clear head on their shoulders and there is opportunity for educational upgrades.

Cons

There is mostly a need to travel outside of Canada to develop your career. The management here seem to hunker down in there position and never leave.
