Vantaggi

1) Salary is good relative to other technology companies in the Toronto area. 2) The work is interesting if you like trains. 3) Some very good middle managers.

Svantaggi

1) The senior management is completely incompetent. Thales has probably the best communications based train control system in the world and could be the dominant company in the field however the senior management have failed to exploit the opportunity. 2) Current office location at 401 and Don Valley makes for a nightmare commute. 3) Senior management enjoy looking for a scapegoat amongst the employees to blame for the companies ills. 4) Company claims that in Thales "people are first", this is a lie.

Vantaggi

*This only applies to the Montgomeryville location* None. Used to be a great place to work. I enjoyed the work I did and the various teams I worked with.

Svantaggi

*This only applies to the Montgomeryville location* -Health benefits have gotten worse each year. -Constant layoffs. -Changed from an 8 hour 3 shift day, 5 days a week to a 10 hour 2 shift day, 4 days out of the week. The idea was to save money on overtime, then they started asking the employees to stay the 4 hours between shifts. Then they started asking the employees to work the extra 3 days. Then they made the employees sign a waiver, making the 3 days mandatory when needed. -Flat raises, everyone gets the same raise. -Lower management no longer cares -Upper management is too focused on vanity projects or no longer cares
