Pros
I really enjoyed working at Questrade while it lasted. My whole content design team was great and my manager was awesome. My pay, annual bonuses, RRSP matching, and benefits were also excellent.
Cons
Unfortunately, after a few rounds of layoffs and a change in upper management, everything changed. Suddenly the work environment became very tense because everyone was scared for their jobs. Rightfully so, since it wasn’t long before the entire content design team was laid off except for one person, along with many members of the product design team as a whole. I see they’re recruiting for new content design roles now. I wouldn’t recommend for any content designer to work for Questrade. I heard they’re offering lower pay and you’ll have zero job security. Don’t do it. It’s not worth the stress. The management that’s left is terrible.
