Simply don't apply here. Most of jobs are transfered to China, no future and no promotion possible.
Thumbs down!!!! Neither real opportunities for advancement nor respect of employees. Management is superficial and decorative. High employee turnover and disastifaction.
Slaves of the Devil of Quebec City.

Ce n'est pas pour rien que j'y travaille depuis plus de 8 ans! C'est une super PME, dynamique, vivante, g�n�reuse, gargantuesque. Join us!
Less than ideal would be an understatement... consider if no other options available and continue exploring other opportunities.The most alarming is management talent and communication profile.
I don�t agree with Rater# 42. Exfo doesn�t have the best INHUMAN Resources Department in North America but in the WORLD!
You got a new job at Exfo. Congratulations! Now, you better bring over snake poison antidote!
New Troubles For The Optical Sector, As EXFO Whiffs Badly. Shares of EXFO Inc. went down 26% after the Canadian maker of networking testing equipment issued a below-consensus outlook for the current quarter. EXFO = EXperts in Fooling Others
I am a former Exfo employee, I rather play guitar at a metro station than work for this terrible company again.
I have worked in the office of this company for over 5 years now and I have seen this company go from nothing to less than nothing..Atmosphere is really not very good to be honest.........Read the other reviews, no body likes it here.(...)
Great place to learn in a dynamic environment. Opportunity to work with international colleagues which is uncommon in Quebec City. Great manager open to new ideas.Overall I'm really proud to work there!
Stimulating work environment, great business model and strategy. Teamwork is really a + !
We should be able to give a score of zero stars.
(see the review)
Company totally run by the owner. The management team is composed by submissive executives who are just doers. Work here at your risk.
The best Inhuman Resources Department in North America!
I wouldn't recommend to my worst enemy.
Hell is empty and all the devils work here (as Vice-Presidents).
25 years of backstabbing and micromanagement.
Just because I need to keep my job and pay the mortgage: Yes Sir! Yes Sir! Yes Sir! Yes Sir! Yes Sir! Yes Sir! Yes Sir! Yes Sir! Yes Sir! Yes Sir! Yes Sir! Yes Sir!
bottom feeders
Regardless of the YouTube cute girls and Mexican sombrero, Exfo is one of the worst companies to work for in Canada.
Great Company to work for. To be improved: workspace.
Which kind of company Exfo is? The kind who will lay off you two days before the Christmas holidays and will recall to hire yourselves 2 week following the holidays� Exfo said: It's the better solution for you! But why thus? If you have no paid for your holidays you will not spend your money...That's very simple! Make your opinion!!
Another sales executive bites the dust. What goes around comes around! He who lives by the sword will die by the sword!
Exfo only deserves this rate: mischievous and treacherous company. I worked very hard there for 7 years and I was the last one to find out that I was going to be laid off. Before speaking with me, my boss offered my job to one of my employees. I found out about my dismissal through this employee. Shame on you Exfo, shame on you!!!
How does Exfo treat its employees? Just like this: work there like a dog for 10 years to end up receiving a termination letter at home. Neither your immediate superior nor your executive will call you to explain why you have been laid off. This is how unprofessionally and cowardly this company behaves. If you work for Exfo, you will have a dog's life: you will work like a dog; you will be...
First they fired the factory workers, and I did not speak out because I was not a factory worker;Then they fired the technicians, and I did not speak out because I was not a technician;Then they fired the product managers, and I did not speak out because I was not a product manager;Then they fired the sales engineers, and I did not speak out because I was not a sales engineer;Then they...
Keep away from Exfo! Employees are laid off without a severance package in spite of having worked there for many years. You will have to hire a lawyer to fight for the money you are owed.
I worked at Exfo for 5 years and I left because no promotion was possible. This company loves putting negative labels on employees regardless of competency and skills; no advancement is possible without playing vicious political games. Leaving Exfo was the best decision of my professional life.
I've worked for Exfo as an engineer twice in my career and it's the best employer I've ever had. I left Exfo only to get advancement in some other business and now I wish I never did. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a job in Quebec City.
Micromanaged and one-man-show company. Keep your head down or you will lose it. Many great employees and executives were either fired or forced to quit because they confronted the system. Undoubtedly, this is one of the worst companies to work for in Canada.
It is outrageous that the executives of EXFO are laying off innocent employees who need a job instead of taking full responsibility for their big mistakes. Why don't you resign or cut in half your big salary packages? It is clear that you are here just to make money; you don't care about your employees' wellbeing.
Why Exfo failed?1. Management became so arrogant that they viewed success as an entitlement.2. Undisciplined approach to growth: setting targets that were so aggressive that the company couldn't maintain its standards.3. Leaders ignored negative data and were prone to blame external factors (economic crisis) for poor performance rather than accept any responsibilities.Next step: Exfo...
This company is in turmoil; politics and backstabbing are nastier than ever before. Disgustingly, many good and loyal employees are rudely getting fired. We are used as paper tissues. I am out of here!!!!
i work there for 3 years. big stress, underpaid, no promotion possible, the only things they talk with the you is the market share the company target. and its right the compagny intimidate others competitor to keep the employes. no choice i move to montreal
Company obnubilated by the profit with Insipid values and a real dull atmosphere� Be sure of one thing, for the precariousness and uncertainty, the � Expertise reaching out � is really well developed!
Losing big money. Strict travel restrictions in place. We cannot even drive to Quebec City for meetings; we have to do it by phone. What was the Executive team smoking when they set a revenue target of USD 250M for this fiscal year?
Everyday I work there, they show us we don't matter. Exfo has a poisoned work enviroment.
Very bad company, not recommend it to a friend, not friendly, overworked, underappreciated, no recognition for a job well done, management is poor, no backbone and spineless.This company is here to make money no matter who`s bones get broken.
After working here for two years, I cannot recommend Exfo to anyone. Stress is high and morale is low; many employees are looking for jobs. This company is going to lose many employees when this economic crisis will be over.
I have worked at Exfo for one year. This company has a nasty atmosphere; hypocrisy and backstabbing are at the order of the day. The people who don't join the system are having a miserable professional life here.
You don't need to be competent or professional to work at this company. As long as you are a docile and obedient employee, you can become a Vice-President.
If you work at EXFO, you won't be able to find another job in Quebec City because the owner intimidates all the other entrepreneurs in the region. Therefore, you will have to cope with abuse and professional stagnation until you retire.
If you have neither dignity nor principals and you are willing to live a bitter professional life, EXFO is the best company to work for.
I've worked in EXFO in sales, I do not recommend it to anyone. Their comm plan is very weak and does not allow you to earn a good income. Their RSU ( restricted shares units)plan, it's a joke!, but most of all they do not appreciate sales people !
I worked in the EXFO Marketing Department for four years. Despite putting many working hours and giving the best of me, I had no recognition. My manager was only concerned about power and politics; I was not properly coached nor appraised. I was made redundant without a real justification. I would not recommend this company to anyone.
A good company to work for, but still room for improvement. Work space is a real weakness
