Pros
- Great compensation - Flexible work life balance with a lot of opportunities for vacation and good leeway - Opportunity driven environment that allows employees to work with a variety of technologies - HOOPP will compensate employees for training. The budget and attitude towards training is overall positive - The best pension in Ontario, hands down
Cons
- The compassionate culture has been abused by employees who think they are gaming the system. - Consultants and contractors can hinder progress on critical projects - Instances of bullying and harassment have at times been largely ignored. Younger staff had at times been afraid of speaking out due to implied threats of losing their job. - Positional power plays a prevalent role in the former point, especially in IT - Linear growth and promotions are slow - that's the nature of the business
