Pros
The annual trip to Amsterdam was cool. All the employees are around the same age and everyone gets along. This is a great company for a young person looking for some experience and a great time.
Cons
The pay is really not comparable to other companies. It is much lower and I can see why the company is only able to hire new immigrants. One of the B.com values is to challenge each other. Whenever an employee challenges a manager, the employee is either spoken to or receives a written warning. Managers do not truly embrace the values of the company and only work on advancing themselves. One of the managers constantly tells her team to "play the game" and you will move up. Nothing else really matters". This is not very encouraging for someone that wants to work hard and be valued for their work. For anyone that does not want to "play the game" with this manager or any other manager, the only outcome is to leave. I understand why so many of my colleagues have left in the past few months. The managers are all Portuguese and constantly speaking in Portuguese. It creates an uncomfortable environment for the rest of the staff and many have raised concerns but it does not seem to effect them. It is inconsiderate as many of the employees speak other languages but they care to respect others and the managers do not. Managers have also spoken badly about employees that have left, calling them trash, worst, and many other names. I find this unprofessional and off putting. This is not a company I am proud to be working for and I find it difficult to respect my managers when they behave like this.
