No technical leadership, no vision - Recensione dipendente - Software Engineer presso Asset Science

Surrounded by some of the brightest engineers and sales staff Coffee Office was a good location Decent insurance

Multiple restructuring over the time I worked there, lost count. Layoffs whenever they needed to cut budgets. Management is cutthroat and manipulative, out for their own salary increases. A lot, but a lot of nepotism, most management is related in some way to the largest client. Largest client is american and highly volatile. Minimal raises, no bonuses despite offering one as incentive to finish a project You can give your 100% to this place and still get no little to no recognition They appear to keep the Montreal office only to take advantage of Canadian tax credits and subsidies. Consistent effort to move everything out of he country, of course via the main client. Guilt trips if you needed to take time to go for appointments or asked to work from home.

None actually, perhaps the location (St-Henri) and the tech stack (GCP, Go, Mongo, Android, Desktop C++ and IOS).

Completely clueless management, clueless on a level that defies any reason. Just as an example, there have been 4 CEO changes in the last 3 years or so. That does not allow the company to have any kind of long term vision or any consistency. They constantly wave the threat of closing the company if this or that objective is not met. Forget working from home, management is still in 1864. Forget any kind of accommodation, for any reason whatsoever. Lies, secrets and more lies. Forget about any kind of raise or longer term career objectives. They simply do not care who you are or what you do. As long as they can squeeze a profit, that is the only thing that matters. Extremely high turnover, the more senior employees have been there 18 months to 2 years at best.
