A great place to work if you enjoy being physically active. Some days you can make a decent wage with hard work. Very flexible when needing time off. Wages vary depending on how you work and availability.

Pros

Great place to make a quick buck and get in shape.

Cons

Hard labor work.

Physiclly demanding and not rewarding

Unloader (Former Employee) - Calgary, AB - 1 September 2023

Cons: You are basically working 15 per hour. It is better to work in McDonalds than here. No benefits, no safety training or just basic training. Pros: Schedule.

Loader/Unloader (Former Employee) - Calgary, AB - 11 July 2023

You’re not paid per hour. You’re paid per container you unload. You have to be very fast with your loading skills if you want to work here. I’d rather work where I’d be paid per hour than to work here

Waste

Container Depletion Specialist (Current Employee) - Calgary, AB - 28 May 2023

Waste of valuable time. Lots of improper labour practicing ,Grand theft, offered fairy tale bonus scenarios with no conclusion. Constant lying by the teenaged "senoir" management. Lol1

Terrible place to work !

Labourer (Current Employee) - Calgary, AB - 16 April 2023

this place will string you along , use and abuse you until you are not needed anymore. When you start there you get the worst and lowest paying jobs , the worst partners. You get all the leftovers and partners you cannot communicate with. Any language besides English would be helpful here. They pay you peanuts And expect you to work for minimum wage for 10 or 12 hours a day. They won’t lay you off if they don’t have work. They will just keep giving you one or two days a week to keep you there until you are needed

Pros

Paid weekly

Cons

No overtime no benefits no english

They pay you by trailer to get around the minimum wage

Warehouse Labourer (Former Employee) - Calgary, AB - 1 November 2020

I would give zero stars if I had a chance. The most containers you can do in a day is three, so you get a maximum of 150 a day in 10 hrs of work. You mostly only get to do two containers in a day depending on the product you’re handling, so only about 100 a day. Rather work at McDonald’s for such low pay. Basically slave labour. Paying you by container is just a way for them to get around the minimum wage. Don’t work here.

Pros

Nothing

Cons

Low pay, hard work

We are very sorry you had this kind of experience with the containers and product that you were handling at our locations. Yes we do pay by the container but rest assured you are making well over minimum wage, should you have come to us during your time of employment we would have absolutely taken a look into this. We very much appreciate our employees and all the hard work you put into unloading / loading of containers and we always do our best to resolve any issues especially those of pay. We do service multiple locations throughout the Calgary area and as a result are able to schedule you to another location after your first has been completed. We always ask that you message us for more work should you be available. Thank you,
