It was a leap of faith. Fortunately, I was soon trusted and valued at Progi.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I was in sales working in turn for Red Bull, Labatt and Molson Coors. I had good results but no passion for my work.<\/p>\n<p>Sales is a traditional world, less progressive or collaborative than IT. There is no getting bored with technology, it\u2019s constantly evolving which is very stimulating for the creative person that I am.<\/p>\n<p>My work and academic experience allowed me to reorient my career towards information technologies. I wanted a change. That is when I came across Progi.<\/p>\n<p>I met with Progi representatives at an IT fair last spring in Montr\u00e9al. <strong>They were dynamic, open and friendly. I thought that if they reflected the entire team it was a winning situation!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I went through the interviews and passed the system analyst testing. That is when I realized that not only would I love the job but also doing it for Progi.<\/p>\n<p>I bet on a career change and choosing Progi and I have no regrets. It is an excellent business which values team work. It is very motivating, Progitians love what they do<strong>. Managers are flexible, I have never walked up to a closed door and I have all the support I need<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>This change is important for me. I trust Progi to the extent of abandoning Montr\u00e9al for Trois-Rivi\u00e8res and you know what? My girlfriend and I love the place. It\u2019s also a return to my roots as my close family is from this area.<\/p>\n<p>There is even a deck on the roof and a ping-pong table! What more could you want?<\/p>\n<p>I am a Progitian and I love it. Programmers around Trois-Rivi\u00e8res should take the time to discover Progi.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013\u00a0\u00a0Jonathan Milot<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I was in the sales field but have reoriented my career as a systems analyst.
