Excellent place to work at
EI Risk Officer (Former Employee) – Montréal, QC – 16 October 2017
I worked at the Montreal satellite office, liaising between teams located in the US, UK, Hong Kong and Europe.

I would recommend this company if you find these qualities important for a workplace.

good workplace as FTE
Senior Software Developer (Current Employee) – Montréal, QC – 7 August 2017
If you want to be a full-time employee, this is a good place to start your career. With a global working environment and internal mobility program, you get chances to improve your professional skills and work across different teams.
When it's time for you to go one more level up, it takes time and depends on your team.
