A Great Organization Overall
Industry Liaison (Former Employee) – Mississauga, ON – 16 February 2019
I think the journey to become a university has some folks a little bewildered, but that aside, the college is doing its best to navigate in a very challenging financial environment.

IT specialist (Former Employee) – Davis campus, brampton – 10 January 2019
Day start with a line of student and faculty member asking for help; provide solution to them make me feel happy because I solve problem to someone.
- All cultures are respected
- The hardest part is when you do not have the answer for the problem, but there is always someone ready to help.

Flexible and Fun
Peer Tutor (Former Employee) – Oakville, ON – 9 January 2019
The management was supportive and encouraging during my tenure. As a Peer Tutor, you manage your own time and appointments so you can take on as much or as little as you want which was great since I was taking 6 courses alongside tutoring. The pay was alot lower than expected and the pay schedule was sometimes weird. They only pay minimum wage usually and limit your maximum hours to 10/week so you probably can't live off what you earn but it was nice for some extra pocket change.
When to study for Vet Assist
Student (Former Employee) – Brampton, ON – 9 December 2018
Overall very good place to learn, the student are very friendly and the staff willing to help you. I enjoyed to hand on work like practice for the real world. We also get to do co-op for 2 weeks.
nice students but no job security and no community support
Communications/ESL professor (Former Employee) – Mississauga, ON – 30 October 2018
Students were lovely and great class sizes but this is a very lonely place to teach with absolutely no guarantees for job advancement or job security. Although the odd person is helpful the administration and management have high expectations on each teacher yet provide very little guidance or assistance. Furthermore, the turn over rate is high for contract workers and they are made to feel like they are not valued, required or appreciated (only full timers seem to matter) yet these workers are still required to attend meetings and provide ideas and feedback. These seems counter productive and adds a lot of stress to the individual worker.
Pros
nice students
Cons
high level of anxiety due to lack of job security
Educational
General Assistant (Former Employee) – Brampton, ON – 24 October 2018
It was exhausting yet allowed to learn more about myself and where I want to direct my life. Though sadly the skills I learned there didn't translate to anything appealing for possible employers.
Very good compant to work for report to Director of Finance
Payroll Supervisor / Analyst (Former Employee) – Oakville, ON – 13 September 2018
Supervisor / Payroll Analyst Over see staff and day to day function answer and investigate all aspect complains sit in at meetings confirm payroll run general file confirm send reports to managers ect
A bit management heavy but otherwise a good school
Professor/Program Coordinator (Current Employee) – Oakville, ON – 11 August 2018
Budget could be balanced by firing half the administrative layer, but not like they're going to do that. To their credit growth has been impressive, there's worse colleges to be sure. But getting a bit top heavy.
It's basically customer service
Triage Staff (Current Employee) – Oakville, ON – 11 August 2018
You have to be super social and ready to hear a lot of issues from some frustrated/worried students. It can be stressful, but it's rewarding. You just need to efficiently answer questions and book appointments with students' Records Specialists. There's a lot of information about deadlines, payments, grades, and dates you need to know. It's also important to realize when you don't know the answer and quickly find someone who does. It's a customer service job, so since you're the first face students see, you've got to know a lot and be accurate.
Pros
staff is great, unionized, not expected to work over time
Cons
contract, pay isn't much more than minimum wage

Productivity
Library Assistant (Current Employee) – Mississauga, ON – 3 August 2018
I have enjoyed working as a library assistant and being part of this college. One of the hardest part of a job is to handle a lot of pressure at the same time. I have trained myself in a way that I know when it is difficult and time to become proactive in those situations.
Excellent Organization.
Student Advisor & Job Developer (Contract) (Current Employee) – Mississauga, ON – 1 August 2018
Great culture, work environment and excellent work that is extremely fulfilling. Inclusive of individuals of all backgrounds and beliefs. Highly recommend Sheridan College.
