Norseman Structures Employee Reviews

I have to say I have been in the trades for over 30 years and Norseman Structures was one of the best. Upper management are some of the best I have ever worked with. But on a site level watch your back if they feel your are getting ahead of them look out. Don’t trust them on the site level. Even though I was let go the company treated me with the utmost respect and I thank them for my time there. I would work for this company again in a heartbeat. I highly recommend them as an employer. If you apply yourself and show you’re worthy there is lots of opportunity to grow.

Pros

Work culture

Cons

Long shifts and some questionable people.

Great company to work for

Supervisor (Former Employee) - Saskatoon, SK - 5 January 2021

Great company all around. If you are young and single, this is the place fore you. Lots of hours and you get to travel all over Canada and potentially the world, building these structures. If it wasn't for Covid and having 3 kids, I would have loved to stick with them.

Pros

Everything

Cons

Hard on the family

Not a good place to work

Customer Service (Former Employee) - Saskatoon, SK - 10 January 2020

I worked for this company for almost 6 years. They are dishonest and take advantage of the employees. For 4 of the years I worked there majority of the staff did not get raises, not even for cost of living. They pay women less than men even if they have the same qualifications and experience. A former employee was being verbally abused by his foreman and they terminated the employee because the foreman was more valuable to them and had more experience and they couldn't afford to lose him. The employees mean nothing to them, only to put money in their bank account.

Great people, unstable industry

Marketing Coordinator (Former Employee) - Saskatoon, SK - 11 April 2016

I was employed at Norseman for just over 3 years and enjoyed my time there very much. I gained a lot of experience in the marketing field. I was laid off due to financial cutbacks within the company. I enjoyed a fantastic working relationship with my coworkers in the marketing department. The director of marketing was the best management I have ever worked for. I coordinated tradeshows, managed our dealer network, co-managed the marketing budget, collaborated on developing campaigns and assisted with their implementation. I gained experience in a number of programs, including, Word, Powerpoint, Outlook, Survey Monkey, Constant Contact, and InDesign. I greatly valued the team approach we had within this department. Everyone's ideas and contribution were valued. This was the most enjoyable part of this job.
