Pros

Close to French Market and transit. I have to write 20 words but there's nothing else good about this place.

Cons

This place seriously gave me PTSD. After I left for a different job, on multiple occasions I woke up in a cold sweat from a nightmare that my new company told me there had been a horrible mistake in hiring and I had to go back to my old job. It looks like most of the senior management has stayed the same, and not one person at this company is a competent manager of humans.

Pros

- good location for commuters i.e. connected to ogilvie and short walk to L trains - consistent employee engagement i.e. annual summer event, happy hours, department outings - compensation higher than standard average

Cons

- little growth i.e. senior staff must leave to be promoted at associate/sr associate level - VP level and above promotions based on gender and favoritism - minimal diversity in office - lack of confidentiality and inappropriate involvement of day to day decision making with HR - rules and standards not applying to all staff based on favoritism - ZERO transparency i.e. monthly town halls for show and not telling - lack of promised cross training - culture committee not able to improve culture i.e. HR red tape - lack of job security and leadership changes in short time frame i.e. firings in winter 2018, lay-off in spring 2019, company sold summer 2019 - small office high-school dynamic i.e. popularity contest v. actual work ethic will get one far
