Pros

decent money, work from home, stock options.

Cons

so during my phone interview I had to dig it out of her how the hours work. this is for remote home work. There are 3 shifts, with the final shift ending at midnight. they are 4 month long shifts and after that your hours may change. They do first pick for hours based on performance. So the better you are at your job the least likely you get stuck finishing at midnight for 4 months. There is no pay difference for the night shift either and apparently no choice with what you get stuck with. I know shift work isnt for everyone but I can't imagine trying to juggle your life where you are massively changing your hours every 4 months.

Pros

Co-headquartered in Toronto and Leeds - very cosmopolitan with a high emphasis on DEI.

Cons

Tech company means people love ALLLLL the software. Information and resources are scattered across numerous platforms, which can be pretty frustrating.

Pros

ecobee is a great place to work because of the fantastic culture that exists here. Thanks to transparency from our CEO down, there are multiple teams helping support me in my role and hit my goals. Because there are so many intelligent, driven and willing people, we are able to work together to exceed goals and focus on what is important to our shared success. Many suggestions and support can be given because of it is known by everyone what you are working on and striving for. It also allows for frank conversations about what we can't work on because it would create misalignment with our goals. I am excited to be a part of a company that is constantly innovating, helping the planet, and looking to win in the market. Great time to be an ecopeep!

Cons

Too many great ideas and not enough resources to bring them all to life!
