Pros

- Many amazing, talented people have come through this company - Software is used by many companies to save their drivers' lives and lower their insurance costs - Great views from the 8th floor office, very nice trails to walk in immediate area - Good fridge, great coffee

Cons

- There used to be tremendous engineering management, culture, focus, process and work ethic but a re-organization in late 2016 and subsequent layoffs have undone these positives - Build in house model has been replaced with a Buy and integrate model. An aging but effective product line has been replaced a very complex mix of poor or complex products - Most of the great people have either quit or have been fired, there is no technical leadership left - Morale is very low, people are afraid to speak up - There are a number of fake (positive) reviews for this company - Employees are expected to clean the kitchen and entrance doors each Friday - No bonus or profit sharing, 10K life insurance, no vision care, no long term disability, no RRSP, no HR, 3-month waiting period for the medical and dental coverage - 8.5 hours per day at the office for Engineering, 9 hours for Business (with a mandatory 8 AM - 5 PM attendance) - Working remotely is not an option, even in bad weather - You will get scolded for wearing inappropriate footwear or apparel - Ming Poon is listed as the CEO, this is not the case, he actually served as CTO, and did an amazing job until the re-organization took place in late 2016
