Great company that's been around more than 100 years!
Field Technologist/ Safety Inspector (Former Employee) – Vancouver, BC – 13 April 2018
Great to work for, but it's a huge multinational corporation.
That, of course, comes with it's own advantages and disadvantages.
It's hard to work your way up to management from the inside, but not impossible.

Incompetent Management
Auditor (Former Employee) – Toronto, ON – 16 August 2018
The job itself is great. There is a lot of opportunity to make money, and the job/life balance is great. Unfortunately, management is incompetent. They are unresponsive. They don't trust their employees. They will pick favorites and side against everyone else.
Pros

Cons

Engineer (Former Employee) – Toronto, ON – 4 April 2018
It is hard to review a company in general when you have worked only in a slim part of it in an office faraway from the HQ in a back water town with local boss who may not understand some key points of the certain business and in general terms too.
Very good place to work

Fair work/life balance 10 years ago but management pushed harder for work recent years.

Fair work/life balance 10 years ago but management pushed harder for work recent years. Co-workers are really helpful and friendly. Due to restructure in recent year, the culture is changed to another side of the balance toward more work and pressure.
Pros
Good for junior engineer to start here and a lot of things to learn.

pressure and management
