Pros

Great co-workers, WFH but it's being taken away.

Cons

- As per all reviews STEMCELL has been going downwards by cosmic speed. Over the past 1.5 year we experienced 3 rounds of lay offs, no wage increases for 2 years and the cherry on top from leadership - mandated everyone to return to office with no flexibility. - Allan our CEO recently sent out an email praising Amazon as a company and how well the business is doing by "returning to office". However, it seems that the fact that Amazon is one of the most hated company by consumers and employees doesn't matter. For some reason STEMCELL (a research and logic based company ) is only looking at one metric and not reflecting on other, such as, Amazon's turnover rate which is 150%. Not to mention the fact, that Amazon just closed all their warehouses in Quebec when employees unionized (1700 people lost their jobs). So from this we can really see what company STEMCELL is striving to be. - Per CEOs email, we can submit requests for in office exemptions, but the best part? His daughter is the head of HR, good luck to everyone who will try!

Pros

Good quality products. Dedicated individual contributors, intelligent colleagues.

Cons

Living in a bubble. They still think they are in the 90s. The thinking is painstakingly slow. Senior management including VPs and senior VPs are extremely inbred in their thinking. They are all perfectly aligned in completely wrong direction. They do the bare minimum and some cannot even hold a decent intellectual conversation. There is a ton of favoritism and only yes men get promoted so everyone is ‘aligned’. If you want to do mundane level thinking and kill your creativity and innovative spirit join this company. It has gotten worse in the last few years. Those currently there are dying to leave but just hanging by the last thread just because the current market is so tight that there is nowhere to go. The senior execs are there for 15-20 years no because they are loyal but because they know they cannot find any other employer who would tolerate their slow thinking.
