Screening Officer in Kelowna, BC
on 29 November 2023
Productive and fun workplace
Fun job, made a lot of friends. The managers are helpful and work with you. Some of the higher seniority screening officers can be hard to work with. Early morning shifts are hard at the beginning and then you get used to it and your shift flies by.

Dysfunctional work environment
Day at work - 8 hrs sometimes overtime if planes are late. Downtime is very boring. What I learned - that they all deserve each other.Management - invisible, ineffective, in bed with the unionWorkplace culture - zero growth opportunities, bad attitudes and bad behaviors. Hardest part of the job - Most enjoyable part of the job - going home

Not worth it
Would be a decent place to work if they paid fair market value for certain sites and if management was supportive and professional. I cared more about maintaining the companies integrity with their clients than management did.
