good starter job
Lube Tire Technician (Former Employee) – Red Deer, AB – 20 April 2018
This is a very good starter job depending on what you are looking at doing. It provides many different oppurtunities for future oppurtunities.
I believe everyone should have a job like or similar to this as I believe it is a good way to build yourself as a person, build social interaction.

Cashier (Former Employee) – Surrey, BC – 19 April 2018

Pros

All work and fun working
Warehouse Merchandiser & Filler (Former Employee) – Toronto, ON – 19 April 2018
Was always working every where that I was needed even though my job title was a stoker, I was at times asked to work in the warehouse. I did enjoy the mixture of work cause there was no board om.
Pros
Always on the go saying yes to instructions.
Cons
At times the enviroment wasn't as healthy.
Corporate Atmosphere
Associate Financial Analyst (Former Employee) – Oakville, ON – 18 April 2018
Awesome company to work for. They moved several departments to Oakville which was a huge adjustment for existing staff working in Welland. It changed the culture of the company moving to a larger city. It is now a very corporate atmosphere.
Pros
stock plans
Good job overall
Customer Service Representative (Former Employee) – 4776 Bank Street – 18 April 2018
The job was good overall, the staff and boss were excellent and kind. I found that we were treated with a lot of respect and I felt comfortable. The only downside was low pay.
Pros
Treated well
Cons
Low pay
short hours

Pros
friendly co-workers
Many slow nights with equally busy days
Cashier (Former Employee) – Cranbrook, BC – 17 April 2018
In the old Canadian Tire building, I usually worked after school and on weekends. mos of the time, after 6-7:00 it was so slow, I would clean the tills, do homework, read. Weekends were much busier
Pros
flexible hours
Cons
Boring
Fun workplace but not good management
Cashier (Former Employee) – Winnipeg, MB – 17 April 2018
fun job and easy but the management needs improvement. I have worked there for 2 years and has done a lot for the company but they oversee your hardship and when you make a small mistake they are easy to let you go
Pros
flexible hours
Cons
bad management
environnement de travail productif et agréable
sport,ménager, fille entrepôt et caissière (Former Employee) – Montréal-Ouest, QC – 17 April 2018
Si vous etes a vous investir dans une équipe dynamique et voulez vraiment travailler c'est l'endroit parfait. a la fin je connaissais 4 postes du magasin complet soit: cassiere, commis menager, commis sport et entrepot. Le seul désavantage c'est que j'ai été pris pour acquis et je n'ai jamais eu d'augmentation pour la diversité et la polyvalence de mon travail....
Pros
ambiance de travail agréable
Cons
souvent des objectifs de journée irréalisable
Health Benefits
Sales Associate (Current Employee) – Martensville, SK – 16 April 2018
typical dayy at work would be sharpening skates, helping customers with their hockey needs and desires (depending on season) also selling fitness equipment and informing customers on the "how to's" of exercising safely.
the only bad experience i have had from this job is that training was hit and miss, my manager was not very informative in telling me how to do certain jobs, including product look up and using a scanner. had to require help from other employee's and luckily i already had years of customer service expertise.

Wasn’t the greatest job
Stock Clerk (Former Employee) – Vegreville, AB – 15 April 2018
Stocking shelves for min wage was not for me. But really enjoyed th paint both mixing desired colours for customers. Trouble shooting and problem solving skills with color matchingwas good enjoyed it.
Pros
Customers and relations with them
Cons
Low Wages
Great people terrible advancement
customer service representative (Former Employee) – Okotoks, AB – 15 April 2018
You had to practically beg for a raise, even when it was promised. But the management was incredibly kind and busy so it was understandable. A great first job
Good place to work
Retail Associate (Former Employee) – Truro, NS – 15 April 2018
Very good place to work. Flexible hours and schedule. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable, and know a lot about the products. Can be a bit busy at Christmas but additional staff are usually added.
Overstaffed and uncooperative management
Cashier (Former Employee) – Edmonton, AB – 13 April 2018
As a cashier we always had way too many clerks on shift (3-4 tills open after 5pm when you'd really only need one maybe 2 max). Due to this most cashiers would run out of things to do before noon, as all restocking, refacing, cleaning, returning carts, would already be completed. We were always being scolded for standing at our tills too long, but when we would leave to go reface/do other duties, we would get scolded for leaving the till. Overall the managers played favorites very strongly, and would never give time off if requested (even if it was a month to two months in advance).
Pros
Social Coworkers
Cons
Overstaffed, not enough work, slow.
Terrible
Customers Service Representative (Former Employee) – Red Deer, AB – 12 April 2018
Very harsh work atmosphere. Disrespectful management and over worked as a youth. As a youth I was working at the Red Deer location and was logging almost 50 hours a week
Pros
Fair pay
Cons
Disrespectful staff
Okay pay for an okay job
Cashier/Customer Service Desk (Former Employee) – Cold Lake, AB – 12 April 2018
Good starter job for students or retirement job for retirees, or perhaps stepping stone job. Not mentally challenging, not physically challenging. Hours are not very flexible.
