Pros

Reasonable pay and benefits for most union jobs (Edmonton, AB)

Cons

Incompetent management: inconsistent communication of procedures then public criticism or attack of employees who are targeted as scapegoats despite - or because of - their competence, resulting in bullying being accepted as "competent management dealing with incompetent employees" and the creation of a poisonous corporate culture. Subsequent demoralization results in high turnover of staff and management perceived as beleagured.

Pros

Excellent investment options. Good benefit plan. They have a reward program that lets you select a free gift if you collect enough points. Points are based on good safety practices, attendance, etc. Gifts vary from jewellery and pen sets to power tools and microwaves.

Cons

There is a very 'my way or the highway' approach from higher management. Which of course, trickles down through the ranks and creates an atmosphere of fear of upsetting the status quo. It also means new ideas are given the quick fake nod of approval and immediate dismissal. There is absolutely zero respect given to the off time of employees. It is a rare occasion to not get a call from the office on your day off. In fact, more often than not, there are several calls. Worse than telemarketers.
