Great place to work. Everyone is friendly and easy to work with. Pay is above average, management is supportive and helpful. Busy, fast paced, work environment.
Pros
Good pay, great staff, enjoyable work environment.
I was a student nurse at GGH for a few months and really enjoyed my time there. The staff and management were extremely welcoming and very helpful when you needed assistance.
Fantastic team environment for an acute care setting. Very collaborative teams that work well together. Especially 5W & 6W. Couldn’t ask for more. Very happy working here.
Very clicky, poor team work
0 work prep in comparison to other work places, you are very much so sink or swim.
Clicky girls on most of the floors
wouldnt recommend

GGH is a very welcoming and inviting company. My hiring process was not stressful nor intimidating; the orientation was thorough and well prepared me for my position; and management treats all employees fair and with integrity. Being offered a position with GGH would be a great opportunity for anyone who loves what they do.
Excellent place to work. Only downfall was the bullying by another staff. This was happening too many staff members and management did nothing. Otherwise staff was helpful and worked well within a team. Takes you to your maximum scope of practice. Great learning opportunity.
Pros
Great staff
Cons
bullying
During my time at Guelph General Hospital as a Purchasing Assistant, I was faced with many learning curves. My colleagues within the Materials Management department were always willing to teach me, and offer quick advice.
Pros
Kind staff, great hours
Cons
Quiet/Boring work environment
Enjoyed engaging patients/clients during course of daily duties and successfully providing them with phone and telephone services, Pleasing work place
Pros
Agreeable working hours
Cons
Listening to customers complaints
I enjoy working at GGH. The people are fantastic and it is great to be part of a team that is helping others. I am proud to work, serving the people of my community. The most difficult part of my job is the lack of funding available to Healthcare. So much more could be done with more funding.
We want to help you find great companies. Help us be the best!

This hospital is small (200 beds or so) and is very quaint. The pharmacy department is a 30 employees or so, where the attitude between pharmacists and technicians is friendly and jovial. As NAPRA standards come in to play, this hospital is due for some major overhauls in its sterile procedure space and may be under construction in the future. CPOE, EMAR and bar coding all to be established starting in early 2019.
Pros
Department opens at 7am and closes at 9pm, therefore no night shift.
Cons
Director retiring early 2019
