Pros

there are none or very little that could be said. Some hard working employees

Cons

negative/poor attitudes, nobody taking responsibilities, everyone blames others. old out dated systems based on DOS, very manual processes. no suggestions taken for improvements, lack of addressing issues or concerns, employees are there just to get the pay, "we been doing it like this" culture. lot of fake "yes i'll get it done". very little support provided, HR need to do a better job.

Pros

It was an amazing company to work for until the new CEO forgot about what it truly means when he says “where we care about people”. Dismantling Canada and the great Canadian culture that was built by great leaders before him, is going to cause a collapse of moral. His narcissism will surely cause a once great company culture to diminish. Very sad to see the downfall of what was once a strong leading business.

Cons

Terrible leadership starting at the very top.
