No respect, pays well

Support Staff (Current Employee) - Hamilton, ON - 9 April 2021

If you are support staff or contract, you will not be respected by your peers or treated well. There is little room for advancement unless you are in management. The "Mohawk Family" thing does not vibe with me. There is an unspokenness that you should always be thinking about Mohawk and doing work even when you are not on the clock. It does pay well if you can look past everything else.

Pros

Pay, flexible during Covid

Cons

Management, work environment, no room for advancement

What a joke

EXECUTIVE CHEF (Former Employee) - Hamilton, ON - 27 March 2021

I was asked to fill a much needed role, and accepted under the premise that I would be having a child and would need to take parental leave. All was accepted and I began my role. Went off on parental and then all of a sudden I needed to re apply for my role because the title had changed. Then I was replaced (still on parental leave) with a less qualified person who didn't last very long. Most of the management there had/ have no idea what they are doing.

Pros

None

Cons

Terrible Management

Pros

Cons

Upper management poor communication

Great job opportunity for Mohawk students

Community access and engagement outreach assistant (Former Employee) - Hamilton, ON - 15 June 2020

The CSEP program at Mohawk College is great as it allows students to work 15 hours a week maximum in order to balance their work-school ratio. Once you have developed a relationship with your employer your chances of getting re-hired once your contract ends are high.

Pros

On Campus, reasonable hours for students

Cons

I did not get to stay as long as I would have liked to

Deaf Empowerment Program (Former Employee) - Sessional Professor - 7 June 2020

Be aware of other college professionals who belittle you because your lack of experience. They want you to worship them. Just pretend you do that and everything will be fine. Some professors do not have diplomas. Not the same page when it comes to collaboration with them.

Fun and friendly environment to work with relaxed atmosphere

Graphic Designer Intern (Former Employee) - Hamilton, ON - 3 June 2020

I have learnt many things about working as a designer collaborating with others in a very friendly and balanced work culture. There has been a lot to do everyday since we covered design work for all around the college, but it was manageable and enjoyable.

Much work but rewarding experience

Working at Mohawk College required significant preparation in order to present a comprehensive package to todays students. The work is rewarding in the thanks you get both from students and management, and the knowledge that you impart to the students.
