Pros

Good benefit coverage like pension, dental, or health. Telus has a solid reputation as a company in the community. There was some variety in daily work and there were efforts at engaging everyone from the bottom up to contribute time to community service and charities.

Cons

Salary was not competitive with industry standard. Weak on internal promotions or professional development. Senior management does not communicate well and there is a lack cohesiveness within the different business units. Union and management conflict is time consuming and ineffective.

Pros

The people who work there (coworkers) are really a great bunch of people. It is too bad management treats tier 1 like dirt.

Cons

The department I work for, is a call center in montreal. It is run by people who used to manage a Telemarketing company and they treat the employees like sweatshop workers. You are chained to your desk.
