Pros

Amazing support to ALL employees. You feel part of the team on day one. You're looked after, set up for success, and encouraged to create goals and exceed them. No unrealistic expectations as well; they understand everyone's human. Time off to take care of yourself is just as important as working hard. Because of that, everyone is in the right headspace to do their best work - and WANT to do it!

Cons

Onboarded remotely (due to COVID) which has made it a bit tough to get to know the team. Because HQ is in the US, the focus is there, even though there are offices globally and protocols that suit the US may not be necessary for other countries (COVID restrictions). In addition to that, our CE team has to work on Canadian holidays because we're a US company. Although they give a day in lieu or holiday pay to follow employment requirements, it's one downfall of the team!
