Pros

Great job with good people. The company is small enough to still allow for all workers to care about what work needs to get done, yet big enough that you can still get knowledgeable to people to take care of health care questions and HR needs. It feels like a family environment . There is also a lot of travelling involved, so if you are young or single, this can be a rewarding experience.

Cons

Although the travelling can be fun, it can be wearisome and sometimes flights get delayed which make for a tiring work day(s).

Pros

Direct leadership is good. Immediate team works hard despite constant complaints from legacy Creaform employees showing lack of trust.

Cons

Following the merger, leadership appears to remain largely aligned with the legacy Creaform organization. There is a strong preference for maintaining established ways of working, with limited openness to change or meaningful integration with the new teams. Resistance to adaptation is often vocal and, in practice, tends to shape outcomes. At the same time, leadership behavior reflects a cost-first, context-last mindset-- prioritizing near-term financial or structural targets without first investing in a clear understanding of the work, capabilities, or downstream impact. Decision-making seems heavily influenced by a small group of long-trusted advisors, and the CEO appears to rely on their perspective. As a result, the organization lacks a coherent long-term strategy and instead operates in a largely reactive mode, responding to the concerns of familiar voices rather than driving a disciplined, forward-looking vision.

Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed and thoughtful perspective. We appreciate your recognition of the strength of direct leadership and the commitment of our teams in a period of significant transformation. We also acknowledge that mergers of this scale inevitably introduce complexity, cultural friction, and differing expectations around ways of working. Following the merger, our organization has been deliberately working to balance continuity with evolution. While preserving what made both FARO and Creaform successful, we also recognize the need for strong integration across legacy teams, and broad representation of perspectives in decision‑making. This evolution is ongoing. We hear your feedback regarding the importance of deeply understanding team capabilities and operational realities before setting structural or cost‑related targets. Sustainable integration requires thoughtful investment, dialogue, and alignment—not just efficiency. Feedback like yours helps us reflect and improve as we continue to build a more unified, forward‑looking organization. Thank you for sharing your experience.
