Great place to work
Roofer/Labourer (Current Employee) – Surrey bc – 22 April 2017
Probably one of the best places I've ever worked at great people awesome work environment no complaints here it's not just a roofing company they do wall panels and glazing also I've been there for two years and it feels like everyday is great to be at work
poorly organized
Red Seal Journeyman (Former Employee) – Winnipeg, MB – 23 March 2017
I feel that flynn glazing is not the best place for my skills to be used. Flynn is very slow with production and as a red seal i tried to better imporve production and feild installation.

The best 50 managed companies in Canada
Senior Accounts Receivable Associate (Current Employee) – Mississauga, ON – 22 March 2017
Flynn Canada Ltd. is a very good company to work with. I have learnt a lot in all these years by working in this company. It is a growing company and expanding throughout in US.
Terrible management to much micro management
Service foreman (Former Employee) – Calgary – 28 January 2017
I was a expert in my field many years of experience. Yet management neglected to respect that. Profit came before all else. Including safety. In 38 years of experience in both union and none union work environment this had to be my worse experience.
Pros
Decent pay
Cons
Poor management style, micro management
Hard work

great place to work
Roofing Laborer (Former Employee) – Edmonton, AB – 28 July 2016

Great place to work if you like being laid off.
Flat Roofer (Current Employee) – Hamilton, ON – 17 June 2016
Great place to work, if you don't mind being laid off in the summer for months at a time, because apparently there are no jobs. For such a big company, it makes no sense that they have no jobs for the summer. Basically if you have senority you get the vip treatment. New employee's get laid off. So if you have a family to support, I wouldn't recommend working here. When you are working they do take care of you. Great group of people to work with. Excellent benefit package, great wages.
Pros
great wages, benefits.
Cons
laid off during peak season.
good company to work for.
