I have worked as a Inventory Associate but now I would like to worke as a Accounting Technician. Inventory department is very much time sensitive department for maintaining or full fill the upcoming order.
Pros
Flexible time schedule
Cons
Inside work place is too cold
Goodfood company in it self is a great company. However, if you work in customer service department, it is a horrible department (management). Have to be a a** kisser to survive. If someone stand for what is right and defend the most venerable. They are pushed to a corner all alone by management. They love to Micro manage. If the management doesnt like some they make sure to show it via discrimination.
Pros
0 pro
Cons
They build pressure cookers not agents
Good place for career growth. But the management can do better. Regardless, I would take a job there if offered a nice role. Few places in Canada actually delivers on the promise of employee career growth.
Pros
Career growth, free parking, subsidized meal kits
Cons
Management
I have good experience working with a goodfood team. My first job experience was great bcz of good management n supportive coworkers.there was fast placed work n very productive. I learned so much.
Pros
Good Break time
Cons
Nothing
Dispatch is either set you up for failure or is stupid. Your last 2-3 drops will always be 8-9 minutes drive. So that your average drop per hour drops thus the hourly rates goes down. If a route is very concentrated with drops, the dispatch will break the route in 2-3 drivers and space each drop around 5-6 mins away. They expect you to be available all the time whenever you refuse. They will fill your routes with apartments and townhouses. All the easy house drops in concentrated area are reserved for Indians and Punjabis.
Cons
vengefulness can be sense from the dispatch
Pros: nothingCons: ok, here we go, please read carefully and save yourself:_ No training: no proper or no training at all time, AT ALL, never training anytime even you are in management position, just throw you on work and expect you to figure it out everything yourself_ This is the place of Indian and Nigeria people, almost everyone is from these countries, a lot of racist and a lot of terrible things in here about talking, no appreciation, no understanding and no listening at all, they always just put command out and noone can explain or reply back _ Management people (i am in this so i completely see this): they are treating people like SLAVE and super bossy, always command to everyone and they will fire you if you do not follow or talk back, they are acting like the BOSS, not leaders. They do not train anyone, not spend time for anyone and just expect everyone to do the work for them so that they can impress upper people, which is ridiculous because they do not know what is going on for each department at all, they just sit down in a warm place and talking for nothing_ Poor facilities: really dangerous workplace, poor equipment, SUPER COLD PLACE (-20celcius can be), NO SYSTEM OR STRUCTURE, SOP IS NONE, everything is a mess in here and I do not understand how they can maintain this location_ NO INSURANCE OR BENEFIT, remember please!Please stay away, it is not worth your money to work here and you will be a better person in another company, I am really serious!
Pros
nothing at all
Cons
above
Such a bad company to work for, long hours, stressful environment, and management is too bad they can't see what you did for them. No proper tools provided to complete your job. You will always be a number to them and they keep firing people on a regular basis. Look elsewhere
Even when the job posting is filled yet their call candidates and waste our time to attend the so called Onboarding day. As soon as you enter to only reslise the position has already been filled. Poor miscommunication between their H.R managers. God knows why they even work as *H.R*
Pros
None
Cons
Miscommunication
You can work hard but once they see mistakes, they forget that you are good. Don't bother. No real solutions and customer service sucks so bad that I am embarrassed that we cannot offer good customer service experience and that I represent the company. Money grabbing for sure.They want you to work hard but they do not prepare you for the job. Hypocrites and yet they question what is wrong with the company and people just gives up.
Pros
Salary increase, flexible hours
Cons
Counterproductive work, Poor Management, Biased
Good environment but to many Chiefs with different ideas. Listening to new ideas and promoting within needs to improve. Not enough people with experience in specific areas.
Pros
Free food every Friday
Cons
No uniforms.
Was working for them for almost a year now. Gave everything I have and then suddenly They call you and accuse you of fraudulent activity without providing any evidence or explanation in writing or even verbal. They just tell you not to talk to them or colleagues not considering your self esteem to yourself and to the company which you are so dedicated to. Very insensitive. Was paranoid for a weeks. Did I mention that the suspension under investigation was UNPAID? I have bills to pay and people counting on my salary for contribution. Still havent provided evidences of the accusation.
Pros
Free Expired Groceries
Cons
Ingrate
Will keep it short and sweet.. Terrible place to work.. Would stay away if can be avoided. Especially Calgary Location.. Based on Current management, all locations are in jeopardy of going down the same route.
Pros
None
Cons
Absolutely no work/life balance - Can be fired on a "whim"
- Managers/HR do not listen to employees concerns- Over 15 people are forced to sit in a small rectangular room, hardly 6 feet by 20 feet- No preventative measures at ground level.- do not expect bonus every quarter, - no processional growth opportunities - Salaried employees are highly expected to work overtime without overtime pay- You are not allowed to resist if something is going wrong with the product quality/safety. Only think about operations cost. They expect you too be robots- Broken HR department, no confidentiality, unprofessionalism and incompetency prevails- incompetent people gets promotion- good example is automation department
Pros
Free bad quality produce on giveaway every week
Cons
No health and safety, no measures for covid protection, charge money for faceshields
Hypocrisy is the order of the day...the managers are not problem solvers ..though they tried in changing the company structure but they lack continuity and consistency.they give favouritism to Indians and are racist and treat associates in a very inhuman manner especially if they are not Indians...was shocked when I learnt the owners of the company where not Indians....the official language there is Indians instead of English.
Pros
No pros
Cons
Long hours, racial discrimination and bias
If you like to be your own boss and love driving this is the perfect job for anyone that likes going upstairs, walking and picking up boxes that weigh up to 35 lbs. There are challenges going to condos however most are houses. Great people to work for very accommodating.Managers are great and very friendly environment
Cons
Be aware of vans doors, when you open your back doors to pack your vehicle
I work there for almost 2 years, they treated me so bad. The staff members are very racist and only are nice to people that are from eastern Asia, and east Indians. They over work us doing more than 10 hour shifts at a time. I started there when they had low production and when they started getting bigger they started to mistreat the workers
Pros
Nothing
Cons
Low pay!
low temperature, tough working condition
