Pros

- Very energetic and visionary leadership team, with late addition of very experienced members - Excellent engineering leaders and very bright software engineers - Experience the Silicon Valley culture in Montreal - Very good atmosphere and culture of transparency - Great compensation and perks (fancy lunch every Friday, food, beers, Foosball table, game nights, ...) - Implementing the latest engineering technics and technology - Pre-IPO - private growing company

Cons

- The former code base had accumulated tech debt due to commercial success, however there are now dedicated teams to improve the tooling, the architectures, and transform toward true microservices - processes where very ad-hoc to deliver, but getting more and more organized and leadership push to implement true agile-scrum-lean at scale - moving toward complete empowerment of the teams and the software engineers
