Pros

Work is straightforward and only as stressful as you make it. Lots of events to help boost the an admired culture perception. Decent amount of time off between two weeks of vacation and twelve floater days per year. Staff are mostly good people. An exclusive contract ensures there will always be customers. Free swag and wifi. Pretty building with LCDs everywhere. Large customer base provides opportunities to move into other organizations.

Cons

Not the right use of engineers, this is NOT an engineering company, it's a sales company. The AE job involves looking up product prices and quoting customers. Business systems are bandaid solutions that make more work for the engineers. No overtime, instead you get a personal factor that is based on your friendship with your manager and a company factor that they keep at just over neutral no matter how the company performs. No development opportunities unless you threaten to leave or have caught the eye of the president. B2B networks risk the need for resellers in the future. I am unsettled about the path we are on.

Pros

I enjoyed working at Lakeside as a co-op student in the HR department. I've grown so much during my time here at Lakeside. The overall organizational culture is outstanding, putting so much emphasis on the wellness, health and safety, of all employees. My team has been so supportive and helpful in everything that I do. I was able to absorb so much knowledge and experience within the last four months of my work term. In addition, my Director has been an amazing mentor and support, as she helped me grow and develop my skills during my time here at Lakeside. She's also helped me overcome various challenges and become more confident in the work that I provide. She's given me exposure to various areas in Human Resources, including recruitment, training and even health and safety. All in all, my time here at Lakeside has been an amazing work experience and I'm very thankful to have this opportunity!

Cons

None at the moment.
