Regulatory Maturity trending high

Program & Projects Management (Current Employee) – Calgary, AB – 3 December 2017

Maturity trending high, AER executives want to do the right things. The strategy is clear and communicated, emphasis on execution is great. Need to improve the culture of feedback as there is a chronic level of triangulation and back talking which can become toxic and unhealthy.

Pros

Highly skilled resources

Cons

culture of back talking

Good Organisation

IT Analyst Technician (Former Employee) – Edmonton, AB – 1 June 2017

Working here is great but if you are a contractor you may be kick out and you won't be given a chance of improvement, sometime the views of the chain of command doesn't match

Great place to work

Document conversion specialist (Current Employee) – Edmonton, AB – 3 May 2017

I've learned a lot from working for this company. The work life balance is great, I picked my own hours and you can choose between 1, 2 or no flex days/month with working longer days.

Stable Place to work

Process Improvement Analyst (Former Employee) – Calgary, AB – 28 February 2017

Stable place to work. Creativity is not appreciated. Must stay within your area. Management works hard at protecting their employees. Difficult to attain benefits.

Typical Govt. Culture

Sr. Procurement and Contract Specialist/ Adviser (Current Employee) – Calgary – 30 December 2016

This is a Govt. of Alberta Agency. Management is very old horrible. Skills are highly absent. Tremendous biases and hidden systematic racism prevails in the organization.

Pros

Less work hours.

Cons

Horrible Management

You're just a number

Culture And Leadership challenges

Business Analyst (Current Employee) – Edmonton, AB – 6 January 2016

The AER is a smart, fast, dynamic company that is making great strides in energy regulation. The work the company produces is top notch but the challenge with the AER is the culture and leadership.

The philosophy at the AER is to create a group culture with full participation, equality and collaboration. This is an excellent idea. What occurs in practice is unfortunately far from that. The leadership styles displayed at the AER are top down, directional, constrictive, not positive, blame based and confining.

Despite a great many number of talented, and exciting coworkers the leaders, managers and higher ups make working for the AER stifling.

Pros

Flex days and work life balance

Cons

Leadership and Culture

Day to Day business at the Alberta Energy Regulator

Business Analyst (Former Employee) – Calgary, AB – 17 August 2015

Working for the Alberta Energy Regulator, every day is different. Core business day to day functions change constantly with new and exciting projects/issues/software's etc.. All employees work as teams to collaborate ideas and put forth their best to create the best we can of whatever is the piece of work being worked on at that time.
Management is always their to help their employees succeed and grow to their fullest potential, offering what they can and have an open door concept.
I enjoy working with all aspects of the business and learning different core functions.

Pros

Choosing own working hours

Cons

Long over time hours
