Cons

There are no growth opportunities

Pros

Free Drinks and you can leave at the end of the day

Cons

Changed their performance structure. It is harder to get raises in the company. Before you would get a yearly review and get a base raise as long as you are doing your job good, now you will only get a raise if you do something ground breaking. No longer can you make a career out of a single position. Tier 2 and Tier 1 are being put together, you are expected to know more but not compensated for it. Iqmetrix seems...

Advice to Management

start caring about the employees

Pros

It's a good brand It's a challenging environment, you will meet, work and grow with smart people You will learn alot Benefits are competitive The CEO and your team lead commends you for creating great experiences

Cons

Office politics. I dont perceive this as negative though, it's a reason to prove your worth. Just put in the good work continuously with a good attitude and your work will justify you.

Advice to Management

Keep doing the commendations from the CEO and team leads, its quite motivating.

Pros

Outstanding benefits Innovative customer focused company

Cons

I worked for the subsidiary and it felt like we were the ugly stepchild. They misread the market they were entering and as a revenue lagged behind projections, the employees had to pay the cost.

Advice to Management

As you expand outside of wireless retail, trust the people who have boots on the ground. If you're going to keep loyal, hard-working people, don't sacrifice their income because you made mistakes.

Pros

Culture is good. People are very friendly and there are a lot of events and activities that bring people closer. The company encourages a good work-life balance. There are regular fitness classes and a gym in the building.

Cons

The company went through a restructuring last year which involved team changes and layoffs. The morale was very bad at the time. I left the job because I wasn't motivated and challenged enough in my team. Depending on which team you join, you may have great growth opportunities or none at all.

Advice to Management

More leadership coaching and better personal/career development budget.

Pros

iQmetrix puts an unbelievable amount of energy into corporate culture. Success is not restricted at just profit, but how the employees work life is experienced. This results in attracting some of the brightest and most inspiring people I have ever met. I was given the opportunity to travel to three different countries and countless other trips within Canada. The annual corporate trip allows employees to connect with...

Cons

One of the biggest challenges of not having strict formal policies for everything is communication. The company has some fluid and organic ways of operating to avoid being stagnate and stale. Unfortunately, this can cause some issues with employees understanding things from time to time. They have invested allot of time and money to improve this.

Advice to Management

After leaving iQmetrix, I truly understood what a amazing opportunity it is to work there. I would encourage management to communicate to employees more how unique it is to be part of such a cutting edge company.

Pros

The higher ups aren't stiffs. Great company to use as a stepping stone to get into a better job at a different company

Cons

One major thing would be the work environment, sometimes the people there act very childish, rude and sometimes very sexist. While I am no prune sometimes my lead takes it to far with her jokes, or aggressive manner in the way she calls peoples names or berates them. It is hard to tell sometimes how to take it. It is hard to talk to the right people about it as if you worked there you would know. The company is...

Advice to Management

There are people that are scared to express themselves now because you might be labeled as "not right for the company."
