Great employee lunch amenities

Lead Engineer (Current Employee) - Vancouver, BC - 26 October 2018

A typical day at work would consist of coming in early morning and calling a team briefing. We discuss the pending issues and new tasks. Sometimes it is hard to have these briefings as hotels are very busy which makes our briefings shorter but detailed and straight to the point to prep our team. The biggest challenge is always time but with a good workplace ethic and with good team support we get through the daily objectives. Amazing skills learned through SUPEX training such as business and team management. Hardest part of job is working long hours. Shifts are typically supposed to be 8 hours however salary employees can find themselves working up to 12 hour days or more when a big event or contract is in which is often. However with these contracts and events there is much to be learned. Most enjoyable part of the job is completing team goals and furthering training and knowledge of the team. Departments often over lap and work with each other. House keeping is by far the most helpful, friendly and accommodating staff,

Pros

Free lunches

Cons

Long hours
