Coast Capital Savings Reviews

Pros

Management is approachable and most of the team are great to work with. EPMO management gives us perks of team events, courses, lunch’s brought in for meetings . Management helps those that want to do the work. I’ve never had any issue approaching EPMO management from VP And directors and having candid conversations about how things are going and career pathing. For those considering Coast and EPMO as an employer, if you have a positive attitude and stay away from the negative you will do well and will enjoy working with this team

Cons

I wish the constant whiners would leave. You make work an unpleasant place to be, not management. I’m tired of your constant complaining on surveys - promotions given to a particular race, a particular race has favoritism and things are swept under the rug, what race is this,? I see people from all races, genders and ages being promoted in our area., and given opportunities, maybe truly look at yourself and the work you do or don’t do, you’re likely not deserving of a promotion. The constant complaining of parking, give it a break, when did it ever become the employer‘s responsibility to coordinate parking or transportation for their employees? If availability of parking was that important to you in the job interview you should’ve asked. There is available parking in the area maybe just not in the building. If the whiners focused on the work and reduced the amount of chitchat and backstabbing that they do to their fellow employees and management our department and work environment would be better. It’s not EPMO management or coast management that makes the department a toxic environment it’s the toxic employees with in the environment that make it so.

Pros

Coast is a great company but not sure with the department.People are friendly and they want to help each you to understand the business

Cons

In my all of the work experience this is the worst PMO i have seen . EPMO is fueled with favoritism,racial profiling,ungoverned practices. It is very biased i.e . If you are one of the favorites you will be given opportunities, growth, promotion (without even looking at skill set, performance). However on the other side , if you’re not one of them even if you have everything right and have done an outstanding job it will go unnoticed. Most of the employees who are skilled and talented they either end up going to different lines of businesses or they end up leaving coast.Some of the team members has to work over the clock to cover up .Management level needs to have some sort of reset button.If you try to challenge them or provide clarity by bringing in facts either you will be fired or your hands will be burned.It will be great to see some changes to solve these problems.Coast is a great company but not sure with the department.

Pros

Extended Benefits Great digital product team

Cons

EPMO uses fear, intimidation and politics to deliver on the backs of people instead of using basic PM methodologies and governance Self-serving bias and unethical behaviour Very cozy relationships with project vendors and consultants Unwillingness to adopt agile to get results

Pros

Interesting projects and lots of new technologies are always in pipeline for you to explore. One can learn a lot here at CCS. The total compensation is slightly above market average .

Cons

Office space is crowded for IT people at headquarter building, and some teams cannot even have a fixed place. You may feel frustrated that you have to find an empty place to settle down.

Pros

Flexible Fun Benefits Culture is very good

Cons

Underpaid Not Valued Not enough recognition
