Pros

Its a nice laid back environment and you don't have to dress up to go to work. I was contractor so I never had any troubles getting time off. I think I could have taken a month off without any troubles. The management understood that it was a temp position and they didn't mind if you looked for another job.

Cons

As a contractor there is little to no chance in moving up to a permanent position. You are pretty much stuck where you are at unless a position happens to open up. The pay is ok for a contract position.

Pros

The benefits are just ok.

Cons

No support from management. You are basically on your own. There is a serious morale problem due to recent cutbacks in staff and employees are worried about another layoff. Employees have a little too much on their plates to do an exceptional job, which is the minimum requirement. Nearly everything has to be done yourself in order to get things done correctly.

Pros

1. If you love the technology (either PCs or consumer electronics), employees get to see products in the pipeline and use products that have just been released. 2. There is a good group dynamic at the company 3. The company does a good job retaining its employees and identifying new roles and opportunities for them

Cons

1. The office is located in Markham 2. It is a Japanese-owned subsidiary that has little control over its destiny with minimal resources 3. The food at the on-site cafeteria is okay (at best)
