Pluspunten

Before WFH: - free snacks - great holidays - great people in certain departments - OTO - company as a whole continues to try to find improvement

Minpunten

- company is currently going through restructuring - company is kinda slow in making improvements that they state they will implement - strong favoritism which ignores the smaller people - lack of clear leadership - lack of guidance from managers Even before SIP, the company itself has been transparent in results, but not clear and lack of direction when it came to what changes will be made. It’s currently going through a restructuring, which resulted in to laying off 40+ people. In regards with team... stay away and RUN. It’s still fairly new, but its culture is very closed minded and managers do not know how to be managers. Often times, small stand ups could be very awkward and opinionated. Although the whole company seems to be open-minded, finance team is the opposite and often making it uncomfortable to even say simple things. Favoritism is severely played amongst the team members that creates a rift and a bunch of unnecessary gossip. If you’re not the favorite, you will setup to fail. If you’re looking for professional or personal growth in the finance team—this isn’t it. 2 stars for the finance team but 3-4 stars for the company overall.

Very supportive managers and a fun, highly collaborative team. The department fosters an environment where ideas are openly shared and opportunities for improvement are discussed constructively without toxicity. Truly the best company I’ve worked for so far.

Minpunten

The interview process was somewhat lengthy, and salary discussions were not entirely consistent.

Pluspunten

Had some great coworkers during my time at MWB/TD, manager was always very encouraging, and pay was good

Minpunten

Outdated technology stack. The platform is built on legacy foundations, and modernization efforts haven't kept pace with the market. Leadership lacks domain depth. Many senior leaders don't have deep cybersecurity or IT backgrounds, which makes it difficult for them to set a clear product vision, read where the market is heading, or chart a credible path to get there. This was supposed to be a cyber company, but outside of the MDR team, that expertise is thin at the top. Good ideas die quietly. I brought forward multiple product ideas that were blocked repeatedly with the rationale that the company is "device-centric, not user-centric." That framing felt disconnected from what the market actually demands. Priorities shift without communication. Strategic direction changed several times during my tenure, but product was rarely looped in ahead of those shifts. I'd learn about new priorities after the fact, with no context on why things changed. Attrition goes unaddressed. There were multiple rounds of quiet layoffs and a steady stream of voluntary departures. Leadership never paused to examine why people were leaving or to share any explanation with the remaining team. The expectation was simply to carry on as if nothing had happened. Bottom line: A challenging culture, unclear leadership direction, and a product that isn't showing up on shortlists where competitors are winning deals. I'd encourage prospective candidates to ask hard questions before joining.
