Toxic environment

Brutal place to work
Owner/Operator (Former Employee) - Kamloops Junction, BC - 18 January 2023
Management is the worst. They do not care about employee health or safety. They Advertise an owner operator job at 75,000-100k a year. They wont tell you it’s less than the 75k, with 30-40k expenses out of your own pocket. Heavy back breaking freight to move solo. Avoid job at all costs if you can
Pros
Full time M-F work
Cons
Brutal heavy freight that will break your body and terrible management

Very toxic environment
Warehouse Associate (Former Employee) - Moncton, NB - 29 November 2022
I would not recommend working at Loomis. The job itself is very physically demanding which is fine if you're looking for that kind of work...the issue is some of the other staff. Some very abusive, aggressive staff constantly having temper tantrums, throwing freight, screaming profanities at each other, jumping around on the conveyor belts like kids at a playground. Management turn a blind eye because turnover is so high. Their starting pay rate is poor, especially considering the nonsense you have to endure from some co-workers. There are better places to work than this.
Pros
Physical work will get you into shape quickly
Cons
Everything else

Understaffed and the people that do show up to work are lazy or too 'hurt' to work.
Lead Hand (Current Employee) - Edmonton, AB - 3 February 2022
Great benefits and the pay is fair for the type of work you have to do. The main issue is staffing. On any given day there is 15-20 people booked off from a staff of 50 people due to leave of absence, injury or just booking the day off. This makes it very stressful for the people that show up to work every day to pick up the slack. There are a lot of lazy people there as well who put in no extra effort when we are short staffed. Management basically just expect you to suffer through it every day. There are ZERO perks to working here. No bonuses, no Christmas party, no team building events of any kind. Just a daily slog.
Pros
Good pay, great benefits.
Cons
Horrible staffing issues. Lazy culture. Apathetic management.

No fun anything
Warehouse Worker (Current Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 2 February 2022
Don’t waste your heart and energy. Brutal communication. Favouritism runs rampant. If you want to be a puppet then try it out. No one from the higher ground cares about anything that goes around because it’s a family affair that run the palace.
Pros
Decent benefits
Cons
Monotonous environment

Worker
Warehouse Worker/Customer Service (Former Employee) - Calgary, AB - 14 December 2021

Stressant et très physique
Commis d'entrepôt (Former Employee) - Québec City, QC - 8 July 2021
Je n'ai pas aimé, personnellement, travailler en entrepôt chez Loomis. Surtout en pleine canicule, il doit faire 50°C dans l'entrepôt !

Great team of people
Warehouse Worker (Current Employee) - Kamloops, BC - 8 March 2021
It’s a fast paced work environment with a great team. Everyone helps out everyone if there’s any issues. Management is easy to talk to and is understanding if you have any issues outside of work that needs to be addressed.
Pros
Great staff, good benefits

Workplace was alright
Labourer (Former Employee) - 11810 Barlow trail ne Calgary Alberta - 9 February 2021
The workplace was alright, benefits were good, people were ok to work with just very slow. Some of the managers didn’t care enough about their job and would be on their phone, not on the workplace in front of them. Some managers did care a lot about their work, and were very passionate in pushing people to their potential.
Pros
Good lunches
Cons
People had no ambition

Do Not Work here - Toxic Environment
Sales Representative (Former Employee) - Montréal, QC - 7 October 2020
All companies goals is to make a profit , but this company takes it to the next level. Yes they make a profit and do very well. But they tolerate at best their clients see employees as a cost hey need to eliminate. There is no training unless they need a receipt for government requirements. They do not want to pay bonuses and find any reason to not pay. They do not want to give salary increases. There is no benefit working for this toxic company. Not if your young or at any age, do not waste your time at this company . Go work for a company that will value your services and remunerate your efforts. there is no future for you at this company.
Pros
None
Cons
Toxic Environment

Horrible place
Warehouse Worker (Former Employee) - Calgary, AB - 3 October 2020
No respect for staff, called overtime almost everyday with less than 30 mins of shift left and no overtime pay or any incentives. Management didn’t care unless work was fully finished, shoved more work on top of staff once staff had finished their shift work
Pros
Nothing
Cons
No respect

productive layed back
Relief Driver (Former Employee) - Cranbrook, BC - 21 August 2020
Every morning is usually the same you have your loading door that you have backed your van up too, on the other side of the door are packages that the warehouse men have prepared in the morning, that will be delivered throughout your day. Usually keep to yourself loading the truck in the morning not much communication between other employees
Pros
easy going, work alone or with one other. feel in control
Cons
long days, alot of driving, weather and fast paced

Opportunity if you're motivated
Owner Operator (Current Employee) - Victoria, BC - 25 May 2020
Good work if you are self motivated and organized and understand how to run your own truck. Management is thin, so very busy, yet still supportive if needed.
Pros
Fair contract guarentee for work done, great co-workers, great customers
Cons
Have to arrange own backup driver if you want vacation, Fuel allowance is a joke compated to cost of fuel (poor contract)

Productive workplace
National Customer Manager (Former Employee) - Brampton, ON - 24 February 2020
I liked my work here. Managed many accounts day to day. The most enjoyable part of the job was dealing with the accounts. My direct manager was the best I have ever had. They are lucky to have him.
