Pros
Open concept office Work-from-home flexibility Management who listens to concerns when you bring them up Competitive salary 100% RRSP contribution matching Beer fridays Nerf gun culture Great training program for new hires I have been with Solium / Shareworks for over 3 years now and I have been able to grow my confidence and my career. I am given opportunity to build and direct the product in a way that makes most sense to me as well as the business. I am encouraged to work on improving my technical skills during work hours. It's not always go go go, which is nice. If I had concerns about anything such as compensation, or having a healthy work-life balance, I was able to bring it up in 1-on-1s with my manager, and be listened to. Management is also very transparent and open about the path forward to help any motivated individual grow their career. Shareworks is a great place to work!
Cons
No more long-term incentive program (annual grants) to help the employees feel rewarded when the company does well. Health benefits have an across-the-board $1000 limit now No more sabbatical program Dev teams always have large backlogs because of how many features are desired, and not enough teams to build it all.
