      Great Fin Tech firm - smart people & innovative product

      Senior project manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Startup culture Innovative product Tangible value for Customers Working with smart people who are willing & understand the product Transparency on company's growth ambitions Reasonably good compensation - considering an overall healthy work-life balance

      Cons

      Mostly due to face pace environment & teams in different locations: Lack of structure/formal processes sometimes undocumented or out of date (HR/Internal) Information can be scattered across different source of truths, i.e. too many internal tools used for different purposes The dynamic between Product team & Customers projects can be difficult at time Career levels + roles & responsibilities can sometimes overlap, while the performance process is not straight forward

      Don’t expect professional behaviour

      Senior software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Salary is ok but not great

      Cons

      Do not expect professional behaviour - behaviour is based on politics and assumptions ( if joining in Toronto, most probably you may have to deal with a psycho too ) - may be this is expected in a small company ? but believe me its worse here. Third world level culture/behaviour in Canada. Grew quickly from 200 or so employees, so core employees remain un professional / untrained in their behaviour and try playing politics Not even a single process is at acceptable level in this company. If you try to correct them, you will be shunned. No development work in Toronto - its all professional service work as a consultant and you will be treated as a consultant not a developer. Don’t expect permanent work from home You will be lied to about benefits
