Experience level: Confirmed

Too much corp. involved- scared to take risks locally
Pros: Great perks, genuine work-life balance flexibility. Great RRSP matching. Feedback on people skills, collaboration and performance taken seriously to hold others accountable. Management follows through on stated actions.
Cons: Too much corporate pleasing, locally hard for leaders to take or encourage more business risks, to learn and apply. Political culture of not displeasing people and open negative feedback in fear of affecting your own performance and evaluation.
