Good company, need to transition out of the startup mentality
|
|
- Very human oriented workspace where the physical and mental health is a priority, despite the cons listed below. Because of the low bar we set, if it's simply a job for you, you'll be happy. If you want to grow, it might be more of a challenge.
- Offices located in Lavaltrie, off the island of Montreal. Easy to access, calm and relaxed environment.
- Very good insurance coverage
- RRSP contributions
- Remote work possible a few days a week
- Flexible teams allowing employees to the position that's right for them and helps the company grow.
- Provided hardware is high quality, performant and often updated.
- Offices are very well maintained
- Snacks, drinks, breakfast and kitchen provided
- Ping-pong table, pool table, golf simulator, pinball machines, and much more.
|
- Salaries are lower than the rest of the industry, and management will tell you that there's a value in being in Lavaltrie compared to Montreal.
- The bonus structure is only based on company performance and everyone gets the same bonus (based on years in the company). This does not incentivize giving your 100% and is absolutely reflected in people's work.
- Management has a hard time with change. Improving processes, which would guarantee a high quality output is not a priority. Some work is being done but the company is growing too quickly for its own good.
- No rigorous testing is being done on new releases, causing a ton of regressions and unhappy clients. Automation would help, but that means changing processes and ways of doing things.
- RDM (the main product) is the leader in its niche, and I'm afraid that clients simply have no choice but to buy our product. Don't get me wrong, it does solve a big problem and customers are generally happy. That being said, there's not enough thought put into the quality of the output. This puts a huge amount of stress and anxiety on the developers and most importantly on the support team.

- The company could benefit from a more transparent promotion process that emphasizes qualifications.
- A clearly defined compensation structure and career development roadmap would be a valuable addition for ambitious employees.
- Devolutions sets its own goals. I think it would be valuable to take a few months to rethink, reorganize and implement actual processes that would help guarantee the quality of our products.
- Overall, the company is well intentioned. It wants to help the customer in any way possible. This should remain a goal and be the emphasis of the next chapters.
- There seems to be a disconnect between the leadership's perception and the development team's reality, especially regarding the delivery of new features with minimal regression risk. Management is afraid of the common pitfalls of tests (unit tests, automated tests, integration tests, etc), but there should be at least a little bit of effort in this direction to help establish some guaranties and reduce release anxiety.

Good company if you don't want to commute downtown
|

Short commute. Good location. Good people.

If you're looking for amazing tech challenges, that's not going to be found there. Technology is not always bleeding edge.

Good company, with nice technologies to work with/on
|
|
Great company with great CEO and smart people, take care of their employees with lots of perks. They have their core products, but are open to let teams experience with other technologies. You learn lot if you're an intern or a new grad
|
Being at Lavaltrie, it's a bit far from montreal, but you'll not be stuck in traffic. Salaries were average to low when I was working there. I hope they bump it up a little bit since then

As the company grows, the clients will expect better and more reliable products. The company should focus more on putting out reliable and maintainable code. Most developers in the company agree with that, but no one says it.
