Pluspunten

There are smart people there with a good sense of humour to work with The company outings are fun when they happen

Minpunten

Weak leadership over the last year They don't seem to have a direction doing the opposite of what they say Social media is basically forced on employees through contests where you are mocked if you don't participate

We are consistent with our outings and they happen in the fall (2 weekday cabin camping), at Christmas (out of town for a weekday overnight) and other events sprinkled around throughout the year. The direction was set in summer 2012 and again in February 2013 and we have been consistent in our direction and messaging. Our leadership team isn't weak at all. They are each leaders in their fields of expertise and we are lucky to have the depth we have. Social media challenges are a rallying cry for the company to shout out about ToolBox and remember what it is we are striving for. We have weekly prizes and the winning team takes the afternoon off to go to a Blue Jays game. It's not forced on people but some people get competitive, that's true. So if our crime is having people that want to win, we're guilty. We're not going to stop trying to be the best nor are we going to stop doing things to bring people together and working as a team. That is part of who we are.

Pluspunten

They tried pretty hard to make everyone happy but I just remember the place being super under staffed which was very not good.

Minpunten

They were really disorganized with stuff which made it harder to get things done which I and a lot of others found frustrating.

The truth is that we were understaffed in some areas. ToolBox was acquired by SPS Commerce in Jan 2016 and since then, no one has been let go and we have had a number of new positions added. We follow an agile process. As per the agile manifesto, we actually do respond to change over following a ridged plan. Some may think this is disorganized. We’ve had ZERO turnover in development in years, not everyone gets agile. Our ridiculously low attrition rates would argue with what this person is saying. We are anything but disorganized. The owners do not drive 200k cars, they drive pickup trucks and SUV's every day. That is just a bold faced lie. Ridiculous. Our compensation package is very competitive with the market. It’s a performance based culture, bring more value and you are compensated appropriately. We pay for certifications and push people. Some people refuse to get better and grow themselves and post drivel like this instead. Check out our job postings to see how we’re growing!
