Pros

- Good hourly rate - Great coffee machines, kitchen area, lots of fun social events. - Cheap and/or free parking - lots of friendly people (support staff especially) willing to help out if asked. - Nice location for anybody living in SE or SW

Cons

- Notice for layoffs measured in hours, not weeks. - Staff unofficially replaced while on vacation, returning angry, causing disruptions that hurt everyone. - Secret but obvious political infighting between managers leading to hopeless policy contradictions. Was never truly sure of who we worked for or held ultimate authority. - Projects announced pre-maturely, same projects lost week(s) latter after you turn down that new job offer, 50%+ layoffs minutes after that and a 2/3 empty office the next day to come back to. - Most people that leave seem to be leaving angry over one thing or another.

Pros

Feel like a member of the team, good atmosphere, new location in a nice building, good management.

Cons

A bit far South in Calgary for me.
