Cons

Hours can be long but can be manageable.

Cons

Salary is low but you know, it's Montreal...

Cons

Upper management lack of support and favoritism

Cons

Too much bond between the certain groups of people.

Cons

Terrible leadership. Every time I walked into the office I was afraid of doing something wrong. There was no positive attitude in the office. People in management positions always treated me with disrespect and never made me feel part of the team. I was always talked down to and people never valued my opinion or took it into consideration. I felt like everyone in the office was always on their toes and there was never a relaxed moment.

Cons

Feels like a factory, lots of burnout

Cons

Its like 1776 America all over again if you're not British or related don't bother. You can have decades of tenure in the company and it means nothing and you'll be dropped like a fly if they have someone who road in on coattails gunning for your position. A SERIOUS nepotism problem. Alot of political red tape&management's business values and work ethic are dated and making the company regress ... you can feel the lack of money and leadership. Serious problematic trickle-down from the top to bottom. they have interns and runners and JR level freelancers they keep on the bottom for years and years that do quality work BEYOND THEIR PAY while incompetent boneheads get hired&promoted routinely. it's really like grade school. the work looks good on a reel&some of the connections you make are worthwhile but the office politics are suffocating. stay there even just 3 months with your head down and shutters on and you feel it.

Cons

Lack of training and zero career path. It's basically a sink or swim situation where management is either hands off or uninterested in their employees future and well being. Talented and hard working people are not given the tools and support they need to succeed and better themselves and the company. This may be due to senior management being untrained in how to manage people and business.

Cons

HR needs to be revamped. Very unprofessional and does not care about their employees especially talent acquisition consultants based in Sydney who have no knowledge of US job market. Reason why there are many employees leaving.

Cons

Poor upper management. No real vision. If you are not English don't expect to get a senior level. It does happen but not frequently.
