Featured review

Bell selected this as a representative review
I began working as a Brand Ambassador for Bell through a Marketing Agency and quickly established great relationships with many managers at Bell. Upon joining Bell I was able to grow rapidly and take over a position at 2 of the best preforming stores in the country Eaton Center and York Dale Mall. There I was able to advance my level of income year over year as I quickly and constantly improved my customer relation-building and sales abilities. I had a great support system from Regional Managers as well as Directors and was able to constantly diversify my skillset and build stronger relationships across multiple regions and take on multiple roles which I much enjoyed. It was a very dynamic role and I got paid well enough for it and those who were committed could earn a 6 figure salary with commission, paid vacations, stock and RRSP contribution matching as well as benefits.

Pros

Commission + Base Pay

Cons

Commission could have been better, Sales people can be difficult to work with if you yourself are not aggressive

Decent job, great people

I was really happy with my time at Bell. My coworkers were tremendous and management was kind and helpful. Regular amount of vacation, sick and personal days, nothing crazy.

Constant reorg resulting in every changing goals and priorities

Due to constant reorgs and management changes the business units are constantly changing strategies which is resulting in very little improvements and stability within the team. This has resulted in the exodus of many talented and high performing individuals which only adds to the stress to the remaining team members. The working environment has started to shift from a fun productive environment to a stressful combative one.

Pros

Exposed to new technologies and and projects

Cons

Drastically understaffed causing stressful work environments, long working hours.

Direction plus qu'excécrable

Les conditions sont bien, mais la direction laisse à désirer. Les chiffres comptent beaucoup plus que l'aspect humain. Aucune empathie considérant la difficulté d'avoir une place en garderie et se dit employeur pro-famille. Certains sont plus agréables que d'autres. Télétravail temps plein et hybride possible.

Pros

Télétravail, assurances, salaire

Cons

Gestion non empathique

Okay. Company sees you as expendable and tells you that.

You can make okay money, part time was a good fit for me. Management was mostly awful, under a lot of stress that they have little choice but to pass it down to you.

Pros

Good Comission

Cons

Toxic Corperate Culture

Chill Job but mediocre pay

Work heavily depends on location. Slower locations are very chill and relaxed but pay very little commission. Busier locations are the opposite. Decent job to build up sales experience but very little incentive to stay long term.

Pros

Relaxed, Stress Free

Cons

Low pay

Leading edge technology with an all inclusive culture

My time (35 yrs) at Bell was always progressive and moving towards a solid future. The knowledge taught, as an employee, is desired by many external companies! Many memories and friendships made along the way!

Pros

Future modelling and paid education

Cons

High standards makes for a sometimes stressful workday

Excellent workplace with good work life balance

Great work life balance, the management is supportive. You can get a chance to switch to another team, the compensation is low as compared to market. There are training programs that you can choose from to switch to another career

Pretty good

Good company to work at. Sometimes progression can be slow but probably depends on your field. Just did a bunch of layoffs (July 2023) so if a position is filled should be fairly secure

Excellent, fast paced, a little stressful at times.

Management is supportive, and strictly detests micromanagement (huge plus). Workplace culture is friendly and team-oriented. The work is occasionally fast-paced during the busy advertising months throughout the year, but the entire team bands together to get things done. I have had all the support I've needed for family/bereavement leave, mental health, and career development, and I've developed some lasting friendships during my time here.

Procédure

Catastrophe entre 2h et 4h avec les systèmes qui plantent.Bref... ça peut aider pendant un certain temps, mais on oublie la carrière ici... l'avancement est très faible et c'est plutôt normal dans ce genre de milieu.

Great place to work but economy is bad at the moment

Lots of layoffs happening at the moment. Been an employee for 12+ years. Amazing place to work if you have the right manager. Company takes care of you and lots of perks and benefits

Boring and Stressful

Fun to work at bell, you could make good money, but its a cut throat environment, the management is poorly managed. They don't really about their employees the way they make it seem like they do.
