Pros

- good health benefits and RRSP matching, options for shares, etc - focus on training and development (access to a free online university), internal training organized regularly - large company so lots of room for growth and movement within the organization - in the sales jobs there is lots of room to grow in terms of salary, but it does take a long time to get there

Cons

- upper management is very male dominant, a bit of a "boys club" - the work life balance in certain roles seems to be quite poor not overly generous with holiday time - salary and compensation for things like a car allowance (when relevant) have not kept up with inflation and the very high cost of living in Vancouver

Pros

Large, North American company with many locations providing ample opportunity for advancement.

Cons

Centralization and out-sourcing removed the local, one-on-one relationship that is created between client/customer and employee.

Lots of learning, good support whenever needed, upper management is a breeze to work with.

Mid management sometimes seems to loose focus of the bigger picture while pushing towards a specific goal their personal targets are set at.
