MARS DISCOVERY DISTRICT

The building hosts a variety of startups and has innovation as their main objective. Some companies that occupy MaRS include Airbnb, Facebook, Uber, and more. There are countless events that take place in the building due to the proximity to these companies as well as being a cornerstone in Toronto for innovation and entrepreneurial thinking. However, many of the employees that work there are quite new and there is always turnover due to the industry. I would highly recommend this place if you would like to start to work with entrepreneurs and see how the impacts that the various programs make are vital to growth in society.

MaRS is a great place to work, particularly if you are a self-starter. I learned pretty quickly to determine what opportunities in the company were aligned with my skills and needs and I always received the support of management in pursuing them. In general, my colleagues are respectful, open-minded and quite brilliant. Most people  at MaRS are quite open to connecting regardless of level so there is enormous opportunity to learn from people at all levels of the organization.

The demands of the role required someone who could build effective processes for real estate holdings.  Worked with management in resolving and implementing strategic solutions. Enjoyed the fast-paced environment.

It seems like it may have just been my department but the sever lack of guidance/support from my manager along with the toxicity of some of my co-workers negative energy is too much. Other departments seemed much more supportive and enriching. But I am not in their fields of work so transferring isn't as much of an option.

My department at Mars was the worst to work for. Toxic environment, dirty politics &  too much negative energy at work place. Better to stay away from this company. No sense of respect for the effort you put in. I learned about the industry by working here but regret to work for this company. They suck on moral values.

Great opportunity to get exposure to Canada's burgeoning tech sector. They have an incredible team building program known as MaRS Games that bring together teams from across the organization to compete in logic and athletic games all summer long.

Working only on a contract basis. The team itself is supportive and caring. No opportunities for longer contract. A lot of staff engagement through tools such as slack. 

Learnt so much here and met so many passionate people who love their work and are dedicated to their field. The workplace culture is positive and allows employees to pursue their interests even if its outside their work.

So much growth and learning happening at the MaRS Building - it is hard for anyone NOT to feel inspired. The team is young and dynamic and the work is relevant and important! I loved working at MaRS

MaRS is a great place to learn through exposure to the ecosystem and intelligent colleagues. Executive leadership was not a strength during my time there, and ultimately led to my departure.
