      Pros

      Safety is the first priority. Great positive atmosphere to work in. Leaders are very approachable and listen to what people have to say. Excellent opportunities to learn and develop. A company that cares about the environment, future and employees.

      Cons

      I have not heard of any comments from peers or management to support any negative feedback.

      Advice to Management

      Keep raising the bar!

      I have been working at Suncor full-time (More than 8 years)

      Pros

      Good pay
      Flexible work schedule
      Decent benefits and vacation

      Cons

      Limited room to grow
      You are tagged early on in your career if you are management material. No matter your performance in subsequent roles it's impossible to shake those earlier categorizations.

      Advice to Management

      Be open to talent at all levels. People learn and mature at different times in their career. Best not to shut good employees out of career progression based on their abilities in very early roles.
