LIFELEARN

This is a good company with great potential that unfortunately is being run into the ground with terrible management. They make horrible decisions and then when they are called on them they blame the employees. 
They hate employees that speak there mind or have an opinion.

Turnover rate is HUGE - out of the 60 people that were there when i started only about 15 are left, all others were let go for speaking their opinion or left as they could not deal with the bad decisions.

If you are happy being an automaton then you should do fine.

Culture within the teams is good, but most hate the management. 

There are entire departments where management does not understand the day to day job yet still sets expectations and piles on the work. Cries for help are ignored and you are basically told to deal with it. 

Promise of change happened every year - yet every year nothing changed for the better only the worse... including profits.

The portfolio I was anssigned anre more  like glorified dinner reservations.

 If our admin is higher than 10% we are asked to change it to billable, when in fact we are not doing billable work which is why we logged it as admin.
The use of the word “R word” has been used way too often.  I advised HR, but heard nothing back. 
Company is not willing to share pay bands in general and of the team you manage. 
Salary for a Sr. PM is at minimum $20,000 below industry standard
Staff are overworked and underpaid
Hotel desks are never set up with what is needed.
Staff are constantly working outside of business hours (Ontario’s right to disconnect is not adhered to)
Speaker personal information (Social Security numbers/Social insurance numbers & banking info) is kept in unlocked documents in a google folder 
upper management Micromanages, play favourites, have no trust in their staff abilities, and speak down to their staff. 


Fun workplace that gets the job done, this close-knit company has the challenging and energetic feel of a tech startup without the long hours or uncertainty. Based out of Guelph, Ontario LifeLearn services clients across Canada and United States. 

You couldn’t ask for a better group of talented and dedicated people. Working in the tech industry comes with its far share of hiccups, but everyone here takes them as they come, learning from these challenges and adapting. 

DOG FRIENDLY WORKPLACE! That's right, you can bring your dog(s) to work with you!

Used to be a great place to work, however it has declined dramatically. Rapid growth has caused the company to forget about the bottom tier staff. Their products have multiple bugs and kinks that are regularly overlooked, as they attempt to create new products in the hopes it will be their saving grace. There is a lack of customer service, causing them to hemorrhage customers, as well as an obvious lack of training in regards to products. Staff attempting to fix the above problems are often over-looked and/or ignored completely.

- Leadership is heavily dominant to their employees.
- Management sets unrealistic deadlines within involving a developer.
- Management thinks developers are insignificant and worthless.
- Completely two-faced and backstabbing.
- Management are unqualified for an IT solution corporation.
- Zero process/workflow and absolutely no organization or structure.
- Culture is essential in an IT company, LifeLearn has the most toxic culture I have ever worked in.

I regret spending my time, mileage, and skills on LifeLearn.

The company has a long history of steady growth and the culture was mostly positive. Unfortunately executive level management made decisions that set the company on the wrong path and also created a toxic culture. Recent changes will hopefully move the company back in the right direction but likely still more work needs to be done so that knowledgeable people are in leadership roles.

Lifelearn has become nothing more than a sales company only interested in pushing out inferior products as quickly as possible to gouge their loyal clients. And is completely disinterested in the well being or morale of their employees as long as they can make the deadlines decided on by management. Any deadline dissenters will be forced out to make room for the yes-men.

Casual environment, lots of office perks pre-covid. However, bit of a glass ceiling with management roles, difficult to move upwards without prior experience for the roles, not great about promoting from within. Decent benefits, but poor pay generally. Good work/life balance for the most part

When I read the online reviews of this company I was thinking "upward mobility"!  but it turns out that the last couple years there have been a number of changes in management and now it is a very relaxed environment.

A big plus is the breadth of the technology stack.  New developers will learn a lot about docker swarms git and CI.

We are open to adopting new technologies and most of the work is in Laraval and React.js.

This used to be a good place to work, but management lost its way. High turnover and low morale have created a toxic culture. You can take your concerns to management, and they'll even listen - but nothing changes. They have put all of their focus on one project to the detriment of all of the others, and that cornerstone product can't get off the ground.
