Genetec Inc., a provider of open-platform, unified IP security solutions, has been named as one of the top employers in Montréal by the editors of Mediacorp Canada Inc., for the eleventh consecutive year.

Optimal work environment

Organised by the editors of Canada’s Top 100 Employers, this annual competition recognises Montréal-area employers that lead their industries in offering outstanding places to work. Evaluations are based on criteria such as: work atmosphere, community involvement, and performance management. Employers are compared to others in their field to then determine which organisations offer the most progressive and ground-breaking programs.

The Genetec worldwide headquarter is located in the Ville Saint-Laurent Technoparc Montréal, a scientific research park that is home to 90 high tech companies. To accommodate its rapid growth and offer its employees an optimal work environment, Genetec is currently building a brand-new bistro where staff can enjoy affordable healthy menus, a new gym with free membership, a new comfortable outdoor eating space and a redesigned reception area.

Genetec employees also benefit from other advantages, including: flexible family-friendly hours, generous vacation and time-off, comprehensive group insurance coverage, a retirement savings plan, an attractive employee referral program, as well as training and personal development programs.

Physical security

"We are honoured to receive this recognition as a Top Montréal Employer for the 11th year in a row"

As Genetec enters its twentieth year of innovation as a leading developer of unified physical IP security platforms, software, hardware and cloud services, the company is increasing its presence throughout the province of Québec by opening new offices in Sherbrooke and Québec City. With offices located in 12 countries around the world, Genetec currently employs 831 employees, 562 based in Montréal alone. The company is also actively involved with local universities and has an active internship program.

“We are honoured to receive this recognition as a Top Montréal Employer for the 11th year in a row,” said Richard Pailliere, Director of Human Resources at Genetec. “At Genetec, we constantly strive to offer the best working environment for our employees to maximise their creativity, feed their spirit of innovation and assure that they have a rewarding quality of life.
