Infuse 100 Video Editor (Former Employee) – Toronto, ON – 19 December 2017
A typical day there was editing videos for the social media pages.
The editing part didn't take too long. Usually it would be finished hours before the actually work day was done.
So that just leaves you sitting there, waiting for the work day to be finished.
They taught me how to use their editing software (Adobe at the time).
The management was great, but most of the time they were doing their own thing, which was okay.
The workplace culture was good. Everyone was friendly (even though that friendliness often time felt forced).
It seemed like everyone gained a little sociopathic ability to make it through their days. To each their own.
The hardest part of the job was waiting for the day to be actually over once you finished all your work hours in advance.
The most enjoyable part of the job was the work itself.
Editing the videos.
In short, I enjoyed the people there, I loved the work. Would probably work there again if given the chance.

Productive fun place to work
Marketing Coordinator (Former Employee) – Toronto, ON – 22 January 2014
A typical work day for me started in the implementation of integrated marketing acquisition and retention plans.
I learned a lot about marketing campaigns, budgets and how to target the right audience.
My colleagues at large were great but unfortunately I found that there was a lot of unprofessionalism between some colleagues.
The hardest part of the job for me was learning how to not let things get personal to me.
I loved working with my entire team. I learned a great deal and enjoyed most of my stay at this workplace.
