Better wear body armour at this place

Pros

Great compensation. The pay and benefits are very good.

Cons

Nobody knows anything about elevators at the Toronto office. It’s very political and very greasy. The PM’s throw everybody under the bus because they do absolutely nothing and make 6 figures. The SMT is absolutely clueless about the business they’re running and care only about their bonuses. This place is a shark tank so wear body armour if you’re thinking of applying. The good thing is you don’t have to have a clue about elevators to work at this elevator company.
