      Pros

      The mission is compelling. Good networking opportunities. Loved the idea (key word: "idea") of working towards a low-carbon Canadian transportation landscape.

      Cons

      It felt as though the work we were doing was fake. We had to convince & manipulate stakeholders that projects were moving forward when in fact they were not. Staff was directionless and experiencing extreme burnout, and most were quietly looking for new opportunities. "Getting out" was a privilege. The expectation was that I was available 24/7 and was made to feel that work came before my personal life. My mental health was at its worst. Never felt like I was being mentored and was made to feel disposable. Quitting for my next opportunity sadly felt like a massive personal victory.

      On behalf of CUTRIC, I would like to respond to a few of the items the original poster has highlighted. CUTRIC staff are highly dedicated to achieving CUTRIC’s vision and mission. The work we do is not easy, but it is impactful; lowering Canada’s greenhouse gas emissions, advancing the key cleantech sector and creating jobs is at the core of our organization. Job seekers are encouraged to be passionate about the environment and climate change. The CUTRIC Team works to advance technologically difficult and technologically complex projects across the country. A recent success of CUTRIC's is the deployment of 18 interoperable battery electric buses and 7 chargers in Brampton, Vancouver and York Region.

      Pros

      Working here offers a strong sense of purpose, especially if you are passionate about transit, sustainability and transportation innovation. The work can be meaningful and high impact, with opportunities to collaborate on projects involving industry, utilities, transit agencies, academia and government stakeholders. Team members are committed to the mission and there can be exposure to unique projects and learning opportunities that are difficult to find elsewhere.

      Cons

      As with many organizations operating in a fast-evolving and ambitious space, priorities can shift quickly. Employees who prefer highly predictable workflows may find this challenging.
