"Mind numbing dreadful work. Great food though."
StarStarStarStarStarI worked at Canada Drives
Pros
Great food and awesome co-workers.
Cons
Slipshode unfocused rushed training. Manager likes to call people he doesn't like idiots. The work often involved people screaming crying rightfully so over great financial issues caused me to bring a lot of stress to my relationships.
Advice to Management
Invest more time creating a proper training program they waste a lot of money training new people.

Pros
So many to mention. First and foremost the people. I'm a strong believer that if you like the people you work with you'll love what you do. Being surrounded with such positive people from the top (Michael Galpin) all the way down everyone is truly amazing. The energy from the time you walk through doors until you get to your desk is happy, energetic and positive. The compensation for your hard work is truly rewarding....

I can't think of one.
Advice to Management
Keep doing what you're doing. I've always felt cared about not only as an employee but a person. The growth is motivation to be great and work towards advancement in the company and be here for life. Thanks Mike & Cody.
