Kitting Technician (Former Employee) - Bolton, ON - 25 April 2020
Work is from 9-5. Friendly people, no one was micro managing, you were trusted to do your work. Stressful at times, but it was fulfilling work. I have no complaints. I'd love to work there again! I'm a student so I was there on a co-op, and is why I left the company.

Fantastic place to work
Associate Application Scientist (Current Employee) - Toronto, ON - 11 February 2020
At PE a typical working day is 8 hrs. Every day is a fun day at PE. The most important thing for the success of the work is the working environment that anyone can found here. A very collaborative and helpful co-worker, dynamic administration and management are the keys of the PE.

Great introduction into the industry
Accounting Clerk (Current Employee) - Toronto, ON - 6 November 2016
Large multinational company, and still growing. Many organizational changes afoot, and many challenging learning opportunities arise. However, management does not present a united front and are blatant in displays of favoritism and bias.
Pros
- global industry
Cons
- a lot of work to be done, yet company won't approve more headcount
