Pros

The benefits at Softchoice are pretty good. Some individual managers were good. Unfortunately, it seems the best ones are no longer there.

Cons

As any public company, decisions are based upon quarterly results. Some things are not easily quantifiable, but management believes they are. Sell, sell, sell...everyone...any way possible.

Pros

Decent benefits, dog friendly environment, fun events/happy hour

Cons

Worst possible training for new employees, no positive feedback-only negative. No one to guide you in the right direction or show you how things are supposed to be done correctly. Management doesn't care to see you succeed and when you aren't meeting expectations they let you go without warning.. Too many politics involved and too little focus on performance and growth as an individual within company.

Pros

Contrary to what some of the naysayers have said below - I think this is a great work environment!! Cool office, great people, competitive benefits, lots of opportunity (I still think this and I have been around for a while), fast paced technology industry, good development programs, regular performance appraisals, weekly one on one with my manager, solid company reputation and financials are strong.

Cons

Unfortunately people who don't want to be here for whatever reason stick around too long... probably because they realize the grass is not always greener. They should hurry up and leave so this isn't such a downer for everyone else. We actually have pretty good employee morale otherwise. This is an environment of lots of change and we're super busy...this may put pressure on work life balance for some.
