Pros

No Pros when you consider the Cons.

Cons

In the recent years, Distributel has been trying to improve their poor ratings and their reputation in the eyes of their employees by working on different ways of driving employee engagement and by conceiling their bureaucratic tendencies behind a few employee appreciation campaigns which their undervalued employees were lucky to experience for the first time in years - gaining themselves the Great Place to Work award. It's unfortunate to say that the people who made it a great place to work have been recently replaced due to systemic bias, favoritism and blatant apathy. Job security has always been inexistant at Distributel due to frequent small acquisitions consistently costing the jobs of those who have put in the efforts, hard work and brought positive change, simply being replaced by lower salaries, empty promises and higher employee turnover rates. The pay is on the lower scale for most positions, advancement opportunities exist until they deem it's cheaper to get the employees replaced but most of all - the Customer Service that Distributel provides to their customers is amongst the absolute worst in the Telecom Industy in Canada. Where's the pride in that?

Pros

It was a good company with work culture and my manager was amazing. He was exceptional with us, always available and ready to assist.

Cons

It got acquired and the work culture turned in money machine due to the external forces and people were let go just like that.
