Co-op WaterlooWorks Megathread (Winter 2027)
This thread is for students applying to Winter 2027 co-ops during the Fall 2026 term.
As usual, we're looking for salaries for new postings, or updates to existing salaries, so if you're willing to share, please open up a chat/DM the mod team. Please include the company name, salary, any benefits, the role and the year if possible. I would highly encourage you to submit if you have salaries for non mathematics/CS positions as we are severely lacking in those. We will try updating these ASAP.
The sheet is here: Salaries + Blacklist Spreadsheet
Average Canadian Co-op Earnings (2024)
If you have details about interviews, rankings, etc, you can add information to watrank.com for visibility.
If you had a poor experience with a company, you can message the mod team with details and it can be added to the blacklist candidates below. If it's already a candidate, it may be added to the blacklist depending on the severity/consistency of complaints. On the contrary, if you had a good experience with something on the candidates/blacklist, please message the mod team and it may be removed. Candidates will be removed if no more reports are received after a couple terms. Even if something is on the blacklist already if you've had a bad experience let the mod team know, as more reports increase confidence that it is problematic!
Candidates:
- Console One
- Lafarge
- Agentmoon
- WealthyPlanet
- Mosaic Transit Group
- Jobby
- Aethos Labs
- Onex Risk Management
Note that reports from submitters with no previous account activity may not be accepted to aid legitimacy.

gf left me after 3.5 years
Came out of nowhere. A couple weeks later we talked a bit and she seemed to not care at all and was completely cold. Yesterday I found out she fucked her coworker immediately after breaking up with me
Made her my entire life, and now I can’t get the image of what she did out of my head. On top of that I have midterms and feel completely hopeless

Advice Should I withdraw from the term?
Hello, I've been having a terrible mental health crisis this term (depression and suicidal thoughts). I haven't done many assessments for my classes, but I skipped a lot of classes and I haven't studied for the 2 exams worth 45% total on Friday. The WD with 50% refund deadline is this Friday, so I wanted any thoughts or advices or your personal experiences.

how do you make friends while on coop?
hello everyone
my name is known work 360 and I... I love reddit. I really love reddit. So maybe you guys will know.
How do you make friends while on coop? I don't fw going out to clubs or parties or anything like that in toronto, I find basically every networking or adjacent event is so pretentious I want to die, sonder sucks, and god my job is so boring
anyways,
I am thinking of starting a reddit club on campus for the weirdos like me who use reddit (and go to the university) in case that was unclear
Have you guys ever heard raditude? Its overhated i fw weezer heavy
I hate when genshin (gambling app) doesnt give me the big win 5 stars ugh

Serious My mom will deadass disown me
I can’t even be disowned anymore. Bro my mom told me that she wanted a list and numbers of jobs I’ve applied to by the weekend. Will I comply? Maybe not. But that doesn’t mean WaterlooWorks should go down in the hours before the deadline. And it doesn’t mean I won’t feel bad cuz I told her I applied to 10 jobs over reading week when I didn’t.
You would think a top engineering school would know how to make more efficient web dev. From what the forums say it’s been down SINCE 1 AM. GENUINELY WTF.
This is just compounding my existential crisis. I’m such a fat chud.

Advice Geography and Aviation Students - How is the time off?
I apologize for posting a second time today, but I was just wondering if there are any G&A students who have some insight on what it’s like to be enrolled in the program having moved away from home. I’m 18 at the moment and living in Ottawa, and the idea of leaving my family and friends to do this program is a lot, but tolerable, but reading about it online, I’m seeing that you only get reading week and Christmas break. Is that really the case? How do students who aren’t based in Waterloo visit family? What does that lifestyle look like? Thanks in advance guys.

can they make a waterloo that works
if i fall asleep now what are the odds that i wake up on time successfully first try. but what if the window of waterlooworks functionality is completely covered by the time that i am unconscious. what if everyone picks the same plan as me to nap and wake up for last minute application submissions and it overloads the servers and they die again. so i must not close my eyes for even a secon. i mus stak awake. but what if i fall asleep unscheduled and miss the operable waterlooworks hours. im hunting an unpredictable beast and i dont know where it will be. i am writing this with my eyes half open in an attempt to feign consciousness. if i can trick my mind into awake i can fool my body too. i cannot sleep. i have to stay awake until i get my application in. just one application. i dserve to submit one application. grant me just this grace, please.
