Pros

Good work life balance. Time off when required. Innovative and good quality products. Good footprint in Canadian marketplace. Good marketshare.

Cons

Lots of dead weight, people who have been there way too long, sitting it out waiting for their pensions to grow fatter. Large company but run like a "mom and pop" operation. Be ready for lots and lots of micro management. Nepotism rife, lots of jobs being reserved for family connections.
