Pros
For me, being apart of the iamota team carries a huge pro in itself. I was fortunate enough to be welcomed into a talented group of like minded individuals who continue to challenge my skill set. As a contractor, I have also highly appreciated being treated as If I where one of their employees. Participating in their companies quarterly goals, setting my own and having private one on ones has provided me with so much more then “just another portfolio piece”. It also doesn’t hurt that the location is close to the skytrain, the shop is brand new and they take beer (or Palm Bay) Fridays seriously.
Cons
If you are always cold like me, then a sweater/socks/electric blanket are a must as sometimes the shop can be on the chilly side.
