      Culture of overwork

      Customer service representative (csr)
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Paid time off, sick days, free food, retirement savings plan, Employee Assistance program, variety in daily tasks.

      Cons

      Working overtime or taking on more than one can bear is expected here. Customer Service and Dispatch are among the most stressful jobs with this company and the pay does not reflect that.

      Toxic Environment

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good wages and benefits. RRSP's are better than most

      Cons

      Every district will have its own culture, but the district in Kitchener, ONT, Canada was a downright horrible experience, If you enjoy walking on eggshells each shift and going home ridden with anxiety than perhaps this is the place for you. Management will use and manipulate you and treat like garbage. It is almost amusing to them. Now if you fit in with their little clique you will be treated like gold face to face, but believe me the backstabbing two face acts apply to everyone. Now if you are an unstable person they will love you and treat you like some sideshow for their enjoyment. Never have I been involved with such a toxic and unprofessional work environment You better have thick skin if you want to work here, or you will get eaten alive by both management and employees
