Intact reviews

I've been working at intact lab for over 5 years and switched teams 3 times. First 2 directors were fair, but the last one was terrible and inexperienced. Would definitely not refer any of my peers to this team/department. The system architect where the data is store and extracted through multiple platform is a pain to work with. The French culture is everywhere in the company. English-speaking employees don't feel as welcoming. Some passive-aggressiveness is shown during meetings when we are only 1 or 2 individuals in the meeting that don't speak French, as that force the group to speak in English. Sometimes, we are just entirely ignored and they have their conversation in French. Extremely unprofessional and non-inclusive workplace behaviour. The pay is also low.

-Stressful environment ( need to work like a robot and justify every minute) -No tangible recognition , the most you can get is a "good job, well done " - Routine - No help from management to escalate the ladder and find another position. -The most you can get i small projects in the same department that doesn't help you with your goal and don't be shocked if management keeps lying to you about helping you with career development. - Do not expect to pursue your career and find a spot in another department. I've had 2 bad experiences where i applied several times for some positions in another department, i was able to pass the interview but the manager there knew somebody from before and offered him that instead. After a personal investigation and a discussion with the guy that got the position, he was just starting university to get a degree that matches that position while i almost finished mine and have other certs. The reason is that he was with the company for over 10 years and was friend with the manager/ department and the whole new team while i had just 4 years with them with no internal relations.. yup nothing fair in here... so this happened twice as i said and i was like no i'm not wasting anymore time here. I have a bachelor in IT and just finished another one in another field, with a bunch of other certificates.
