The most useful review selected by IndeedI worked for the city as a Manager in public works. Unfortunately, I needed to leave due to family reasons. The most satisfying job I have ever had. Did not want leave.

Rewarding job with difficult management
Lifeguard and Swim Instructor (Former Employee) - Nanaimo, BC - 2 April 2020
The job itself was rewarding and often enjoyable. The management team had some weak links that made things difficult. The City of Nanaimo tended to be a difficult workplace to break into unless you had family connections.

Friendly and overall good place to work
Summer Recreation Leader II (Former Employee) - Nanaimo, BC - 7 June 2018
I would recommend working for the city of Nanaimo, as they are the most friendliest employers you will have. They are always going out of their way to make sure you are having a fun and safe work environment, and working for them usually feels like more fun than actual work.
