3 - 1.0Oct 25, 2023Anonymous EmployeeCurrent Employee, more than 5 yearsNorth Vancouver, BC
Pros
Stable, unionized, good time off.
Cons
Toxic work environment. Managers and supervisors engage in gossip about employees fairly openly. Wellbeing of employees and quality of work are not important compared to ticking boxes. Inclusion initiatives are all talk and no action. The well is poisoned so high up you cannot create change here.

- 1.0Sept 9, 2023Senior Director FinanceCurrent Employee, more than 3 yearsNorth Vancouver, BC
Pros
There really aren’t any. The current leader in the finance division is a great example of ‘The Peter Principle’. He definitely rose to his level of incompetency , and thinks only about how he can use others to hold onto his job.
Cons
Well, there are a lot…. The CFO has really caused the department to slide. Finance should be a devision that others look to for integrity and financial leadership, but under the current leader, all the senior roles have turned over because he has no vision, doesn’t care about the reputation of his team and he has no people skills. Just look at how many roles have ‘acting’ appointments or are outsourced. It’s a division in crisis.
5 - 4.0Sept 22, 2023Customer Service AdjusterFormer Employee, less than 1 year
Pros
- Good pension plan - 3 weeks vacation + 3 weeks earned time off. - Unionized work environment (secure work environment) - Good job to have for young university graduates.
Cons
- Call centre work is isolating in nature. - Hard to get time off on weekends or desirable weeks for new staff (seniority-based vacation). - Constant work and the nature of the work does not change so it can be repetitive once you've worked there for a while.
