Pros

They make everything sound promising, but always all talk no action.

Cons

-The company preaches transparency and says radical candor is one of their values but it is NEVER a safe environment to express yourself. BECAUSE THEY WILL SNAKE YOU OUT. -Shady business. Multiple employees left this year after a very short time with the company. The place is lost and their employees are always gossiping and stabbing each other. -Upper level management micromanages to the extreme. -Upper level management is often clueless and lack knowledge of internal infrastructures and services that are offered. -Upper management does not listen, trust or respect others that are underneath them. This is to be expected when leaders have been in the industry for years but disappointing when paired with the other points that are mentioned. -No transparency at all, full of drama and immature ways of dealing with problems -They expect you to standby 24/7. -Significantly undermarket salaries for anyone. The company is known for pretty ruthless firings, often without warning or proper process. The CEO isn't very strategic, makes snap decisions that impact lots of people. The culture is not as health and the company loves to say it is -- it is toxic in my experience.

Pros

Unfortunately none that I can think of.

Cons

There also appears to be an ambition to expand aggressively, but it’s unclear whether the company has the financial runway or operational capacity to support that growth sustainably. The current product suite competes in a crowded market with more established and better-resourced players, and based on observations it may be challenging for the existing team structure and capacity to outperform competitors. Strong emphasis on performance and outcomes, yet limited guidance on how to improve or succeed in the role. Don’t expect any guidance or mentorship. Insular culture that clearly favors those that are Chinese and mandarin-speaking. Clear favouritism and very limited diversity and inclusion for a company located in Toronto.
