Mid Island Cabinets Employee ReviewVery stressful environment
Labourer (Current Employee) - Parksville, BC - 18 September 2020
Unfortunately, Mid Island Cabinets Parksville is very poorly run & managed and myself and other coworkers always feel undervalued, disrespected, and patronized. Trying to approach management or the owner with a problem is difficult. Very high turnover rate which says a lot. No bonuses, low wage cap, minimal benefits, no praise....zero incentive to do a great job here. Rumour has it that this business is on the brink of closing for several reasons, so not your best bet if looking for anything long term. As soon as Covid19 is gone, I’ll be looking elsewhere.
Pros
Nothing
Cons
Poor management, no incentives, no respect, stressful environment

Official response from Mid Island Cabinets
19 April 2021We are sorry that this is a stressful environment it is not meant to be that way. As far as wages go Indeed has this great app that shows us the industry standard for certain departments. Indeed collects data from across the country and we are above the standard.

Unprofessional
Labourer (Former Employee) - Parksville, BC - 19 April 2021
I gave it my all here but there are many better cabinet and woodworking places to be employed at. I found the owner and management unprofessional and unorganized and promises made were never kept. Lots of “throwing people under the bus” and high school type behavior. Too stressful! I also saw many WorksafeBC violations that nobody dealt with after bringing it to managements attention. I enjoy woodwork but working here took away my passion for it. No thank you.
Pros
Sadly, nothing.
Cons
poor treatment of employees overall.

Lack of management experience
Sawyer (Former Employee) - Parksville, BC - 17 June 2022
Every manager has no experience and only promote their friends. They have no interest in listening to any ideas. But it's who you know not how good you are
