Levio Reviews

I left Levio recently. They force you to take projects that are not related to your field of expertise, I met consultants that quit as well because they were burnt out from changing clients/projects all the time. Regarding Levio's clients, the firm mostly work with antiquated institutions such as the Quebec government and banks. When I left, they didn’t pay the 3% they claim to pay as contributions for my pension. Their excuse was that I was not employed for 2 full years, therefore I was not entitled to the 3%. On the other hand, a consultant at Levio is entitled to an expense account of $2500 per year, and when I left, the director of human resources was hand-picking what expenses they wont cover from that account. Once I presented my letter of resignation, I was harassed to submit a different letter with an earlier date. And when I refused to change it, they inundated me with work that I was unable to finish in my last two weeks with the firm. During my time as a consultant, I spent 2 ½ months in Intermandat, which is the time spent between clients/contracts, because the firm was unable to find a client during the summer. The portfolio of clients at Levio is very limited. The account managers do not have deep knowledge of the field where the consultants work. More notably in agility, change management, and continuous improvement. This leads to acquiring clients with no experience in those fields of work as well, most notably the government. From my experience, upper management is like a wild west, and at the office I heard once a director make this remark as a joke "does anyone here speak Mexican?". The whole administration is made of people from Quebec while the consultants are mostly immigrants.

So many shady business practices. The 2500$ annual personnal subsidy for professional development (ADP) is a mess where you put your training fees, sport subsidies, office supplies expenses, and where you can deduct paid vacation time at end of year if money is left. If you need a computer for work, you have to pay from the same ADP. You may have to pay for your computer to work. Unpaid christmas vacations unless you want to work. Below average salaries. Below average raises. Overtime is paid at end of year only. A lot of unpaid corporate meetings (most at lunchtime) Mismatch between consultant profiles and offered client opportunities. Use repackaged Quebec CNESST personnal days (2) as general vacation days. Immigrant worker are underpaid compared to market.
