Pros

Good job to get straight out of college as you basically get paid for free to just upskill and learn things. If you make connections, some of the senior employees are very knowledgeable, kind, and helpful. Compensation and benefits are decent.

Cons

0 job security. Management doesn’t know what they’re doing at all. Everyone’s drowning in a sea of bureaucracy. I think they talent hoard or only hire local talent to meet government regulations ‘cause they have no intention of placing you in projects if you’re a Canadian/US hire unless you’re willing to fight your way towards it (basically make connections to get on one). You’re also just a number here and it’s made very evident on orientation day itself. Very shady and work culture is extremely toxic where you’re expected to worship work to show that you have any value at all.
