Great West Equipment Job security & advancement reviews

Great place to work, when covid didn’t shut us down. Having to pay to travel wasn’t great but usually double time made up for it. I’d go back if the contract was right!

Poor communication, poor management

Service Advisor (Former Employee) - Surrey, BC - 26 August 2021

Nobody is on the same page and internally each department argues. Can’t progress or move forward. Super unorganized. Stuck in old ways. Was told benifits would kick in after 3 months. Had to wait two months longer for whatever reason. Was lied to. Job description wasn’t what was told.

Pros

Some great people!

Caring Employer

A growing company that has not lost the personal touch. Top executives know and care about each employee. Employees are helped to succeed. A lot of positive changes over the recent years.

Not really a con - but there are high expectations with help to get there

Productive workplace, great atmosphere

Mechanic/Welder (Former Employee) - Kamloops, Canada - 6 July 2017

I loved going to work at great west, the team was great and I had the opportunity to learn from highly skilled professionals. They always kept us busy, while keeping a close watch on our needs as workers. No two jobs were identical so boredom was never an option, always growing and learning.
