Vantaggi
This used to be a strong company so the name still has a little cache to it. A few of the engineering groups are well positioned with competent senior staff.
Svantaggi
No longer a strong competitor in the market place. Their reputation is sinking and they are struggling to get work in the Vancouver office. They have laid off much of their work force and many good people have left. The company shows very little class and respect for some of the workers that they lay off. There are many politics within the company and I didn't trust the ability of senior management to lead the company or my group. Some of the senior engineers were thrust into their position out of necessity and have no desire or idea of how to manage or develop their subordinates. My experience with this company was a very negative one and I know of many colleagues who share the same opinion. If you do decide to work here, be prepared to be displaced on a whim and for long term assignments in undesirable locations.
