City of Vancouver, BC Employee Review
TOXIC work environment! Better jobs out there, look at other job options!
Building Worker (Current Employee) - Stanley Park works yard. - 11 June 2022
I'm actually seriously thinking of giving my two weeks notice and/or quit outright altogether. Your treated like a 24 hour ATM machine here that one can use whenever they want! I get a chuckle out of their job posting saying must be available mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends. Like seriously who has 24 hour work availability. The union here has zero balls to boot! The job itself is awful and the management are constantly changing routes, times, etc. They purposely wish to make your job more DIFFICULT instead of SIMPLER! Most of the employees here are just too much about themselves and don't care about anyone else! So many NEGATIVES trust me look elsewhere for work as our job prospects out there are the best they have ever been!
Pros
none
Cons
days seem to drag on forever and boredom factors in.

Good place to work for. Great work life balance however some may find the work a little slow and boring. Not much room for growth or career advancement.
