Pluspunten

Transparency (monthly AMAs with the CEO). Accolades (company bonus system based on employee voting). Technical focus (CEO still codes and comments on PRs). Strong focus on simplicity (everyone will challenge you to find a simpler solution). Amazing perks (lunches are really good). Exceptional staff in all departments. Flexible hours (generally 10-5, work from home if sick).

Minpunten

More work than can be completed. You need a strong lead to deflect work and focus on quality. Young employees. Can make it more challenging to connect if you are 30+ Inexperienced staff. Reinventing the wheel a lot. (not so much bigco cargo culting though) High expectations and stress that goes with it. Burnout is probably more likely here than usual. Remote offices don't get treated equally. Move to Ottawa if you can, great city.

Pluspunten

Remote first culture. If you want freedom of location and a company to truly mean and support it - this is the place.

Minpunten

Constant change. Nothing to hold on to in this role, compensation, KPI's, tools all change every quarter.

Pluspunten

High comp and AI forward. One of the few remote places left.

Minpunten

Upper management basically openly disdains the “working class”, and it’s a major jostle among the VP and Director level for currying favor with the CEO. The investment in AI tooling is smart but also the C suite majorly suffers from AI psychosis, it’s embarrassing, actually.
