Good work for students
Lifeguard/Swim Instructor (Former Employee) - Abbotsford Recreation Center - 16 December 2018
Indeed featured review
The most useful review selected by IndeedI worked for the pool, it's a great job if you're in school or if you want some extra hours and have another job. It isn't that great if you do it full time as advancement and management isn't as optimized as other city pools (from what I know at-least).
Overall, the pay is good and it's pretty chill as long as you show up and are decent.
Pros
Relaxed culture
Cons
Management/supervision not optimized

Customer Service Representative (Current Employee) - Abbotsford, BC - 14 February 2018
If you are not liked by mgmt you will not excel or get any future training even if you are good at your job. it seems that people get hired because they may know someone. Managers have been known to scout out their own employees that they want. Not an equitable employer. Saw a post where a pro was Birthday lunches? Not sure who you worked for but thats news to me. 35 hour work weeks in Administration and 40 hrs at the works yard.
Pros
None
Cons
Major politics, inexperienced managers, terrible benefits and union is almost extinct.
