      Pros

      The benefits at the company remain competitive when compared to other companies in Canada, providing an immediate advantage. It's noteworthy that there is still a wealth of talented individuals within the organization, offering ample opportunities for learning and professional development.

      Cons

      Unfortunately, the aftermath of the Later + Mavrck merger has led to a downturn in the company's trajectory. Senior leadership's exclusive focus on revenue, rather than addressing customer needs, has created a concerning imbalance. Toxic decision-making processes, including two rounds of layoffs alongside the hiring of expensive C-suite executives, contribute to a challenging work environment. The absence of a clear vision or overarching goal is evident, leading to seemingly random experimentation and excessive budget concerns. Additionally, salary freezes due to financial constraints have further strained employee morale. The departure of all co-founders serves as a poignant indication of the significant shift in the company's culture and overall atmosphere.

      Pros

      Lots of exciting work on the horizon and with continued investment and strong leadership I expect to see a massive industry splash. Exciting to be a part of such a talented team.

      Cons

      Like many companies, it's hard to make big bets, however this seems to be turning around. The comfort level with unpredictability is increasing which allows for room for innovation.

      Pros

      - Strong opportunity to own and build within your function - Exposure to large, well-known clients and meaningful business impact - Fast-moving environment with talented, driven peers - Ability to take on significant responsibility quickly

      Cons

      - Leadership and organizational direction can shift quickly, often without clear alignment or communication - Role expectations and scope can change without being formally reset, making it difficult to operate effectively - Limited support and resourcing relative to workload, particularly as responsibilities scale - Feedback and performance management can be inconsistent and not always reflective of full context - Culture can feel inconsistent and, at times, lacking the support and transparency needed for teams to operate effectively - Transitions and resourcing decisions are not always handled in a way that prioritizes client continuity or team sustainability
