Great management!

Server (Former Employee) - 837 W Hastings St, Vancouver, BC V6C 1B6 - 25 August 2022

The terminal city club is a great place to work at, they make sure you feel welcome and comfortable. I can only speak for The Grill Restaurant (my section) and the management team is absolutely wonderful! The only down side is that the tipping system could be a bit more transparent since I worked as a server and it is important to show the details about tips.

Pros

Great Management, Welcoming Environment

Cons

Lack of transparency about tips

Department managers are too bad

shift engineer (Former Employee) - maintenance department - 6 October 2020

Although the work environment is good and provides lunch, the department managers are too bad. They didn't support you and already blamed you. Although they are also color people, they see people with color glasses. They are very temperament and lazy.

Pros

free lunch

Cons

bad department managers

More good then bad

Banquet and Cuvee Bartender, Lions Pub Bartender (Former Employee) - Vancouver, BC - 31 October 2019

All in all an enjoyable place to work with a few minor flaws that most workplaces have, management can be very enjoyable or very fickle at times, the overall culture of the place is a somewhat enjoyable as it does feel that you are valued by not only the workplace but also the guests.

Literally nothing to learn as leadership sucks

Staff (Current Employee) - Vancouver, BC - 18 September 2019

Nothing to learn and waste of time as it is empty from inside. Staff is good however leadership lacks integrity and poor decision making is the root cause of unsuccessful leadership

Co-workers were helpful and welcoming.

Apprentice (Former Employee) - Vancouver, BC - 25 May 2019

I only did my apprenticeship here which was a month long. In that time, I was given valuable experience on every station. We were also given significant leeway to experiment with new ingredients and recipes.

Fast paced work environment.

One of the perks was that we were able to work independently as management trusted the staff to provide excellent service. My coworkers were supportive and hardworking.

Healthy environment

Maintenance Technician (Former Employee) - Vancouver, BC - 13 April 2018

Very smart healthy place to work, comfortable positive environment. Pay is ok not great not terrible, good benefits. Friendly place. Very long term employees so advancement can be tricky but speaks about the company and working environment. You are working around very wealthy people and it doesn't feel uptight or like anyone is better then another.

Pros

Staff meals, events, environment, benefits

Cons

Advancement

Way better then the arbutus club

Cook (Former Employee) - Vancouver - 4 December 2017

Your treated like a human being here. Way better then the arbutus club. This place is a healthy environment. No work bullies. If your thinking about applying at the arbutus club, don't do it. This place has way better management, and there's no one muscling each other.

Pros

Parking, staff meals, pay

Cons

Long hours but its a healthy enviroment

Good job, good money, good benefits

Banquet Server (Current Employee) - Vancouver, BC - 28 March 2013

A decent job for a decent amount of pay. If you work there for over a year and can manage to work over 20 hrs a week you get a good benefit package. Upper management seems fine until you need to address a problem, then not impressive. Values and subsequent culture could use a makeover. Overall, average - good experience.
