Pros

-Good benefits available -Share matching available -Flexible scheduling

Cons

-Company as a whole no longer values its employees the way it once did, it is all about keeping shareholders happy -Constant layoffs to reduce costs, which increases all teams workloads with no additional pay -Expected to do the work of two people with layoffs and keep same time schedules -No appreciation for long term employees into the double digit years (no one notices if you hits a milestone of time with the company, you get an automatically generated email to print your own certificate and leadership doesn't say a word) -Favouritism occurs with scheduling (some can take paid time off and others from the same team do not get the same offer) -Lack of mentorship opportunities (likely due to increased workloads for leaders and low capacity available) -Promotes a forward thinking, environmentally conscious brand but continues to support industries that have major environmental impacts

Pros

Work from home and create your own schedule. Paid training. There is an option for therapy through the company.

Cons

They are hiring, but there aren't enough tasks to make the minimum of 10 hours a week. There are no raises and no promotions. They take a long time to respond to emails, if they respond at all. The only benefit is a 401 (k). $14 is the pay rate, and one can only work 20 hours a week, if there are enough tasks. The past couple of exams for training set one up to fail them. I have been doing this job long enough to know this. They constantly threaten your job, which really affects morale and confidence. There used to be bonuses, but they haven't done them in a long time. There were times we were given permission to work up to 35 hours for the week, but again, it has been a long time. Last one, they didn't have enough tasks to allow for workers to get to 25+. They also offered stock options, but they ended that as well. They made a major mistake on my end and threatened me unless I complied. Eventually got an email that they were wrong, but they didn't apologize. I saw they were hiring freelancers with a maximum of 25 hours a week. I wrote to management and was told the rest of us were only staying at 20. I am currently seeking other employment. There are other companies that do the same work with higher pay and actual benefits. This was once a good job, but once Telus took over, it has been downhill. I would not recommend this company anymore. I'm starting to wonder if this isn't a sinking ship.
