Best places to work in Canada in 2018
Glassdoor Canada recently announced the best places to work in Canada for 2018 and named 25 companies where any Canadian would love to work.
The place I work (Pointclickcare) is right in the middle of the list and I was very happy to see that. Honestly, I would have given Pointclickcare Rank#1 instead of 15 as the best place to work in Canada based on my own personal experience working as an employee here.
A spot on Glassdoor’s Best Places to Work list is a tremendous achievement. After all, employees decide which companies make the list. Curious what winners have in common?
