A best place to start a career as an engineering graduate. Career growth may be slow but high job security. Experience with management was highly professional and has a relaxed job environment.

Good shop techs

Fleet maintenance technician (Former Employee) - Regina, SK - 20 January 2023

Poor training and direction provided by supervisors, plus the added pressure to produce more without any help makes it a challenging place to be. Probably should not waste any time applying here, people are looked at as a cost the corporation rather than assets.

Pros

Paid hourly

Cons

Goofy shift work

This employer provides security in an economy that doesn’t take care of an employees finances. No, they are not perfect but better than most I would say.

They pretend they care but they don't

Administrative Assistant (Current Employee) - Regina, SK - 17 February 2022

The city does not care about it's employees. Once you have a medical issue, you're done, you are now responsible for paying for your benefits. They are awful to work for.

Good Place to learn how a city functions

Service Fleet Advisor (Current Employee) - Regina, SK - 27 February 2020

work in Fleet, good place to get hands on experience after a Dealership SA position. Great feeling you don't have to compete for a pay cheque. My Managers treat you with the greatest amount of respect and open to new idea and way of doing things.

The city of Regina is a great place to work. You can have several carriers at the same employer because there is such diversity in the work that they do. You also get a sense of pride from providing services to the community that you live in. I highly recommend it as a place to work!

Culture is toxic

Coordinator Assistant (Former Employee) - Regina, SK - 30 October 2019

There are worse places to work, there are better places to work. The work culture is very different from what the corporation would like to convery - inclusive and safe and respectful - this is not the case on the front line with the lower level supervisors. If you can put up with it, then you will do fine. It wears on a person though........

Variety of Positions and Hours available

Supervisor, Cashier, & Program Leader (Current Employee) - Regina, SK - 29 October 2019

Pick shifts once every 4 months or sub and pick-up shifts. Great for working around other jobs or school. Lots of variety for shifts: set up events, kids programs, office positions, cashiering etc. Management is absolutely horrendous.

Pros

Flexibility

Cons

Management
