Pros

The environment and culture are great! A big part of the Montreal office consists of French Orsyp employees who re-located. The company worldwide is only about 300 employees, which makes for a small enough environment to know people personally. Very accommodating and takes time to train their employees. Complete with weekly poker nights and a soccer team! The work itself is interesting, you get to discuss about IT architecture at big companies. Travel is almost only within North America, and days can be partly recovered. Fairly often company or team events.

Cons

Positions in the Montreal office are limited, but if you are willing to re-locate then it is easy to move to Hong Kong, Paris, London, etc. and to try different departments. Sometimes the French folks may seem to be in their own little "clique" - but they are very friendly and open if you make the effort to mingle with them. Pay is decent for the low Montreal standards, but rather low if you work anywhere else. As a consultant there can be low business periods in which you would have to help out other teams - QA, support, etc.

Pros

Great company to work for. Everyone from the CEO down to the newest employee cares about the company and its people. There's even a great program within the company where they bring you to Paris and teach you about the company and what they do.

Cons

Sometimes the strategy of the company might be a bit hard to figure out. New products and such are rolled out last minute sometimes with little to no notice or education about them. They're improving though.

Pros

A pretty flexible work environment, knowledgeable management with many experts in the space

Cons

No company direction, poor work environment, and no one seems to like each other. Makes it difficult to go into the office every day. There is also no training whatsoever on the products and you learn largely on the fly. If you don't have workload automation experience, you'll be in over your head for a long time.
