Compass Group Employee Reviews

My direct manager was amazing. She really cared about me and my coworkers. But upper management was very disorganized and there was poor communication between them

Not very good, lack of professional development opportunities.

Financial Analyst (Former Employee) - Mississauga, ON - 29 November 2023

What is the best part of working at the company?The CEO and CFO are very friendly and make an effort to speak with junior employeesWhat is the most stressful part about working at the company?Some of the middle management can be extremely rude when providing criticism. Also provide no support for professional development, several employees paid for the own CPA program fees and registration with management conveying they would pay. However when asked for reimbursement employees were left in the hole.What is the work environment and culture like at the company?Average. Junior employees are friendly.

Its good

Custodian/Janitor (Former Employee) - Fort Saskatchewan, AB - 22 November 2023

Its good and easy job but no place for growth and most of the time you will need to do a task the same thing everyday. Pay is somewhat okay but salary increase depends on your performance. I’ve known some coworker who worked for Compass for 4 years and they said they their pay isnt great.

okay part-time job

Tim Hortons Team Member (Current Employee) - London, ON - 17 November 2023

For a minimum wage job it isn't horrible. It really depends on who your managers are and who your co-workers are (like any job). The company (Compass Group Canada) over charges for a lot of the products that they sell (ex: a small pasta salad costs $8).

Nice place to work

Server/Cashier (Current Employee) - British Columbia - 10 November 2023

Nice place to work since you are a student because they have flexible shifts. Great coworkers which help a lot. The bad thing is because they don’t pay tips.

Just miserable

Chef de Partie (Current Employee) - Ottawa, ON - 4 November 2023

If you enjoy toxic masculinity everyday, then you should work here. If you enjoy having moving goal posts and uncertain expectations of what success is at your job, then you should work here. Problems start at the top and then roll down hill to you.

Great place to work!

Food Service Worker (Former Employee) - London, ON - 23 October 2023

Good work environment, supportive coworkers, good salary and benefits for full-time employees, flexible schedules, good treatment by management. The only thing to improve is the organization in the administrative area.

Over worked - no support

VICE PRESIDENT (Former Employee) - Canada - 18 October 2023

Shockingly poor on-boarding for not only Sr Leadership , but all employees. Inexcusable for such a large organization. HR is painfully disorganized with no support outside Ontario. All HR leadership is in Ontario and you will only have Jr help in you province. If you do not work in Ontario near the head office, you will have very little support. You will not even have an office as a Sr Leader, you will work from your dining room table! Operations are punished with a massive workload funnelled down by support departments - should actually be the other way around.

Pros

big company

Cons

Very poor on-boarding, no support outside of Ontario for other provinces, leadership team outside of Ontario is over worked - no support

Would not recommend

Assistant catering (Former Employee) - New Zealand, PE - 17 October 2023

Worst management I've experienced leading to a high turn over of staff and constantly understaffed. Due to this, you always pick up extra responsibilities out of your job title without the extra pay.

Great Company

Senior Accountant (Current Employee) - London, ON - 2 October 2023

The company is amazing and has a great work environment, the only thing is they pay away under the market. it is a good company to start but not for long time, unless you can get promoted quickly which is hard. the work structure is a little complicated, so you need to understand the workload and duties.

Lots of favoritism. Reviews not based on hard work.
