Pros

Free benefits, daytime shift with good hours.

Cons

Worst company i ever worked for. When doing cutbacks, just pick and chose who to put on contract. Then would pretend they were nice people. Just chose their personal favourites as to who could get back on permanent and stay with the company. Then after they would not offer you anything else and pretended like there was not any work. But, would mail you a letter asking if you would keep them as their health and dental insurance company. Treated people like garbage.

At Medavie, you really are just a number.

Pros

At Medavie there are decent health benefits, and the company does some good things for the community.

Cons

At Medavie you really are just a number in the way you are treated - you are even given a number to log into your computer with! Salaries are low, raises are typically 2% or lower, the performance review system doesn't reward high performers, there is no support from management with your career path, training is non-existent, middle management seems to make all the decisions instead of relying on their people, and because of that they are too busy to actually manage their people, too much work but they are reducing staff instead of hiring, and finally, the message that was sent to the employees who aren't engaged after our annual engagement survey was, "What is YOUR problem?" - a direct quote from the CEO.
