Pros: As a Software Engineer, I've found the hybrid model in our Toronto, ON office to be a solid perk. It means I don't always have to commute, which saves a lot of time. Most days are pretty standard, around 40 hours.
Cons: The biggest con is when major fintech projects ramp up. You can expect some late nights or weekend work during those times. It's not a consistent 40-hour week, especially when deadlines hit. Leadership could do more to protect engineers during crunch times.
Advice to Management: Try to better manage project scope for engineering teams. More proactive resource allocation could reduce the need for last-minute crunch periods.
