Pros

Challenging and interesting work, smart team of passionate people, fun work environment

Cons

CEO is a narcissist and notoriously over-promises and under-delivers. Decision making is presented as being consultative and collaborative but is not at all. CEO gets rid of employees who do not agree or resist his strategies. Poor environment to grow.

Pros

Not many pros to consider here. If you're having a good time at the company, it's probably because the CEO hasn't yet spent your salary on an unnecessary "business" trip to work out with his buddies, or you've got a face that is pretty enough to appease him and the story he likes to tell about himself to investors. Or, you are just an excellent sheep, with a reliably mediocre skill set. In any case, just you wait, your day will come, too.

Cons

Predatory company, masquerading as socially conscious and well-intentioned. Produces absolutely nothing. Ever hear of Theranos? Google it. It's disgraceful that the provincial government has chosen to support carrying this deficit. The list of cons goes on and on. You're better off anywhere but mixed up in this mess. What a gigantic waste of time.
