Pros

- very flexible work arrangements - amazing customers - great technology - lots of interesting places to move to in the company if you are driven to get them.

Cons

- the entertainment division is rife with politics at the top levels. - Many dubious decisions based more on personal agendas then what's best for products or customers - the general feeling for many employees in the montreal office is that its a toxic environment.

Pros

Typical tech/SaaS/startup environment... snacks for days, fancy water/coffee machines that make anything you could dream up, free lunch, massage chairs, swag to make people feel proud, fancy meeting rooms, ability to work from any office or remote.

Cons

Upper management cannot explain comp plans to save themselves. This is a sales role... sales people like MONEY and knowing how they're able to earn that. If you can't explain how targets and attainment works, how can anyone stay motivated or want to stay? This was easily the biggest mess of a company I've experience, that's too big to fail with government contracts, and perks thrown at employees that makes them second guess wanting to leave. This place also favors the typical woke culture you'd expect and they sexualize the workplace (call it what it is) and favor certain groups while stomping on others. My building was wrapped in a giant rainbow, every window and door had a rainbow decal placed on it, and a work floor loaded with TVs promoted very "colorful" events - it was a VERY celebrated office space. Christian, Conservative, etc... beware of your values being stomped on like mine were. This place also
