This was a contract postition I hoped would turn into permanent
I learned many new skills while working for Imperial Oil. The staff were friendly and helpful. Once I worked there for a while I was told to not get my hopes up of ever becoming an employee. I was disheartened, but determined to get hired on full time. Due to the economic climate and hard times in the Oil and Gas Industry, there were major cutbacks to every department at the end of my employment there, as I was on contract I was laid off and my duties were distributed to three full time employees.
I truly did enjoy my time there and wish them all the best.

You have to work hard to get anywhere
Operations and construction are at conflict. Not enough communication between operations and construction. Detailed job scope on some projects not detailed enough!

Excellent place for employees at all stages of their career
Plenty of knowledge and resources available to employees at all experience levels. Lots of opportunity to grow and develop professionally. Heavily involved with community. High regard for safety and ensuring that everyone goes home the way they came to work.
High volume high production
Fellow workers were great, unfortually my area was super busy with little support which caused a lot of stress for me. That's the only reason I left, but do miss it there. My day incorporated doing work orders, coordinating maintenance work on all mining equipment, making sure personal were available when needed, working with outside contracts for off site repairs, and ensuring they were done correctly which meant off site visits. Ensuring warranty standards, and documentations were kept on top off. The culture was one of strict safety. Hardest part of my job was keeping up with everything. I had to work 14 hr days to stay on top, so after a ten day cycle, I was beat out. Most enjoyable, that would be again the people and experience I gained. Had some good times for sure.
Great Place
I worked a 4 month summer Co-op in the laboratory. Everyone was great in the on boarding process.Made sure you knew what you were doing before you started anything. Safety first mentality. Gained meaningful experience and knowledge. Great people working there.
Pros
Pay, hours
Cons
Not the most Environmentally friendly company
Best safety culture and rewarding experiences
Safety culture at Imperial Oil is amazing and the collaboration here is the best. You will have challenging and rewarding assignments with many opportunities for cross company assignments with global ExxonMobil affiliates.
Challenging job without a training.
During my first interview beginning of December 2018, I was waiting till middle of January to get a notification that they hired me with the intention of a long term job. I learned the whole system on my own as well as I introduced a new process including a new system to eas the whole process. As I become more confident with this job they laid me off, as they merging two jobs into one to save money.
Great place to work.
The majority of the co-workers are amazing and frienship bonds are made for life. Some others are competitive and will try to make you look bad in other for them to advance. Too many department being transfered to other country. So you are not sure about your job security. But all in all, it's a pretty good place to work.
