Culturally Sensitive and Inclusive Workplace
PQCHC works hard to provide a healthy work space for its employees. There are concerns that there is not a lot of space to move up, or advance further in your career here without bilingualism or a university degree (this is not always relevant to the job at hand, and they will pick someone who is bilingual over someone who is more qualified and better for the job IMO) which unfortunately is the same for many workplaces in Ottawa.
Extremely poor management
There are a couple of excellent employees there who have worked with the agency for many years. Over recent years however there's a high turnover of employment counsellors because poor management.
Pros
Agency overs useful employment information
Cons
Controlling manager
Fun workplace
Adequate management, however instructions given to complete tasks are often very unclear. Sometimes food is provided, but not always.
Loved working here as I could actually see the positive effects that my work had on people's lives, especially for the children.

Very poor managers with inability to review realistic programs and motivate employees
Very poor leadership. Management demonstrates favouritism, bias, and inability to realistically review and improve government funded programs. Management ignores or does not know how to give constructive feedback and incentives to employees. A pattern of dismissing new employees for arbitrary reasons is apparent.
Management with employment programs is either is not provided with good direction or is misguided with ability to review leadership decisions.
I would not recommend this employer.
