Fantastic training and onboarding for individuals in the traditional roles ie. Account Management, Client Relationship Officer, Business Centre Manager. Engaged employees. Fantastic benefits, pension, competitive salaries and overall compensation. Strong attention to work-life balance.

Cons

Weak onboarding and training for individuals in non-client-facing roles. Little opportunity for upward mobility unless willing to move across the province or country.

Pros

Very good place to work, amazing people, top notch technology and hr practices. Very high paced and sales driven environment, lots to learn. BDC mandate to support entrepreneurs is truly reflected in the culture.

Cons

Compensation is the biggest challenge. BDC doesn’t pay as much to account managers given the stress they have to handle. Very small organization, limited carrier growth opportunities.
