Very stable. Business is international with almost no presence in Canada. Therefore Canadian recessions does not affect company's bottom line that much. Thus not causing massive lay offs.
Cons
Annual performance reviews does not reflect actual performance through out a year
Average salary increase barely covers inflation rate. (e.g. in 10 years you will be making 20% more, but inflation will most likely eat 18% of that)
Make sure you negotiate your base salary appropriately. You will stick with it for a while.
