"I was a contractor so my experience may not mirror those of permanent employees. The setting at the TO campus is just amazing. I really enjoyed that. I liked my business group, and my boss and I were quite amicable. I gave her a relatively low score because I almost never saw or interacted with her and when my time there ended, she didn't tell me or say goodbye, my contract organization came to the TO campus to let me go. That just felt odd to me given that I was actually working for her."
