** We are a great environment for both outgoing people and those who are very shy and introverted (applicable to non-client facing positions).

** Free onsite massage therapy.
** Private nap rooms for isolated thinking time or for taking a nap if you didn’t sleep well last night.
** Atrium to enjoy the sun during lunch.
** Social events worth remembering (fencing competitions, curling, video game or board game parties, coding competitions, commando combat training, robotics club coming soon, etc).

** Unlimited access to pillage our kitchens for caffeine, sugar, healthy snacks, soups, and more 🙂
