Pros

First of all, Intact is a product-oriented company, not an agency, where people work on tones of different projects at the same time and don't have other life than work-work-work. I worked in many different not-product companies before joining Intact and I’ve never had the same freedom to do a real UX as I have now at the lab. I don’t have to constantly prove that I need to do this or that type of activity. If I need to do some workshops, run a round of research, do an interview with customers, I always have a green light for that. Every time I speak with my ex-colleagues from other companies, I realize that I’m so lucky working at Intact lab, cause I have everything I need to deliver a great user experience. All my solutions are client-centered because I had time, all recourses and right instruments in my hands to understand who my customers are, so I design solutions for them, not for some fiction ones, imaginable users. This fact makes me happy and I feel accomplished at my current place. If you really care about users, you are passioned by research, you want to find your own voice and you want to be heard, this place is for you.

Cons

Sometimes, management could be a little bit more organized, but this is not a bit issue. Overall everything seems work fine last years

Pros

- Stable job - decent pay for junior staff - good benefits - good working hours - good industry experience if you're starting out

Cons

- There is a severe lack of knowledge and experience among the staff and management. For the most part, the Ottawa office is comprised of Text Book underwriters and managers, no one truly has a firm grasp over the construction, financial, automotive, farming, and recreational industry to say the least. - When you catch brokers time and time again being unethical, management lets it slide because they write business but in that vry act, you're now placing unnecessary risk upon the company and setting a poor precedent with brokers - Pay is extremely low for skilled and talented staff - If you're a protectionist who strives for consistency, and takes the work you do seriously, this wont be a place you'll want to stay long. (Can't speak for other regional offices)

Horrible company culture

Pros

Good package in terms of salary, benefits, pension but that's about it.

Cons

Horrible environment and culture. Management lead by instilling fear in their employees instead of leading by example and real leadership. People constantly talk down about others. Very hierarchical, titles mean everything in this company,
