Pros
Prime Quadrant is a great place to work with a dynamic, fun team (including management). There is plenty of opportunity to take your career in whichever direction you want, and try new things. The CEO is energetic, forward thinking, well respected and very present in the office; he is understanding, thoughtful, and great mentor. The company has exceptional values and is very charitable (volunteer days, fundraising initiatives, and our annual large conference where 100% of proceeds go to Canadian healthcare initiatives - in addition to attracting top notch speakers). Employees are encouraged to be involved in growth and decision making, and there is ample opportunity to get your ideas heard either publicly in weekly office-wide meetings, privately with a member of management, or anonymously through a couple different channels. There is a lot of transparency withing the company both ways. In addition to a health spending account, there is a monthly wellness benefit towards your gym membership which is a big perk to many in the office.
Cons
While dissent is always the louder voice, I feel I would be remiss to not acknowledge the few poor reviews which are from disgruntled former employees and not an accurate depiction of PQ. Most recently, the July 9th post (from an employee who did not complete the probationary period) is far from my experience - and I believe that of the vast majority of my colleagues. Prime Quadrant is a terrific place to work - with impeccable integrity - and our clients repeatedly tell us how much they value the work we do with them and the relationships they have built with their team.
