Big teamster culture to the detriment of management functions, no up skilling for seniority keeps all the meaningful management talent at a lower pay grade. Even if someone’s resume has gone redundant and useless over 20 years at the same company, they’re treated like they’ve worked a yard job for that time. Diversity is in silos and a joke at not even 20% female management.
Internship program is treated like amateur hour for HR in Montreal like we’re a play pen in the US. After spending and wasting double the time in various positions as an over qualified intern, they might(?) actually “get back to me” about a full time job after my last day.
The summer interns are treated like a club house while winter and fall interns are treated like somewhere between the Revenant and the Shining teaching a Boomer excel tips or watching them play peek a boo with essential software packages they’re signing for a few million dollars in assets for.
Unimpressed that south Asian HR in Canada wasted a breath dogging my supervisor’s Union mother as to whether she was my own mother in a back freight lot like they can’t spell “nepotism” or “career development.” Great to know I was on a hereditary gossip rag international before any career advancement was considered.
Didn’t get a day of proper PTO for the 8 month term, no benefits for full time work.
