Average Salary for SofterWare Employees in Canada

Pros: Working on fun design projects with talented and smart coworkers.

Cons: There are way too many meetings to attend and the Agile process with 2-week sprints along with goal squad meetings is exhausting. Communication and output suffer because the Project Managers don't have the time to spend making sure the pieces are in the correct order and all details are there. In the end, this creates too much backlash and drama due to poor project management and everyone spreading themselves too thin. It's wearing people down and taking a toll on the department.

Pros: I like the passion that the people have about their work. The flexibility is nice to have, especially with family.

Cons: Lower than average pay for doing a large amount of work and having many skill sets to bring to the table. Paid according to salary.com and titles don’t match our work and skill set. Promotions are slow and working harder does not equal recognition unless you are Super Cool or Mr. Bossy Pants.
