The environment was welcoming and friendly. Management has been pretty good so far and scheduling is flexible. Pay is decent, and there are opportunities to transfer within the company.

Toxic Environment/Management Doesn't Care

Security Guard (Current Employee) - Toronto, ON - 14 March 2022

They don't even treat their own employees right, don't expect them to treat you right either. With the management neglecting their staff, it translates into the healthcare you are given, without care, because management has given them no incentive to do otherwise. Management consistently ignores safety implementation requests from staff ensuring that repeated safety issue arise basically on the daily. Floor staff are not consulted leaving people who work at a desk making decisions on renovations. So now, for example, you can get trapped in the ER waiting room during violent situations because of it's new bottleneck style. They will come up with one small change and ignore the big ones that have been brought up for months, even years at this point. The NFA population is given needles right outside the ER, littering biohazards at every entrance, or all throughout the staff parking lot which is for some reason open to the public despite the constant issues. The parking stairwell looks like a war zone on a good day, and is not safe.

The CEO gave himself a $300,000 raise over 3 years while the clinical staff work super hard and don’t get the benefits and pay they deserve

Secretary/Unit Clerk (Current Employee) - Toronto, ON - 6 February 2022

Management and C-suite team are out of touch. Like almost everything, their motives are driven and determined by money, not by improving the workplace or by creating a compassionate, organized or respectful place to work. There is an air of not caring about the quality of work being done. There is no job security

Stay away from 2LM

Unit Clerk (Former Employee) - Toronto, ON - 20 November 2021

Horrible experience. Hired to work in 2LM department. Insufficient training provided, processes are not properly explained. I was expected to know how to work alone in the unit after a week. I was made to feel incompetent for wanting more than 5 days training. Management is awful, including head nurse and senior admin staff. They will talk about your performance amongst themselves, in an in professional manner while you and others can clearly hear their conversation. Do not take notes to help you prepare because apparently that is wrong. I truly don’t think the staff even care about the patients they are supposedly taking care of. Any form of kindness or customer service skills you exhibit towards patients or their families was unwelcome. I learned after from other staff that this department has a problem holding on to their admin staff and it is clear why. I have many years experience in customer service based and management roles and this was the most horrendous job I have ever had.

Pros

None

Cons

Unprofessional management, insignificant training

Lots of room for improvement, not only as a singular unit, but as an entire corporation.

HCP (Former Employee) - Toronto, ON - 11 June 2020

Some nice staff there, but a lot of unprofessional behaviour. Values do not align with their profession at all, half the staff is strained and stressed the other acts completely unprofessional, and unbecoming of the profession.

The work environment is challenging

Operations Leader (Former Employee) - Toronto, ON - 26 May 2020

The work environment is challenging, fast paced and often times stressful. Staff can be challenging at times. Shifts are 12 hours but the benefit is you only work 2 weeks a month.

Supervisor

Operations Leader (Former Employee) - Toronto, ON - 29 April 2020

Poor conditions at the workplace. I felt that the time that I gave to the company was heavily undervalued. I was cast as aside for things that were beyond my control

Great Team - Toxic Management!

Applications Services Manager (Former Employee) - Toronto, ON - 16 April 2020

I managed a fantastic dedicated IT support team, however, management was toxic! Played favorites, did not take recommendations for change or advise - insisted their way was the only way to do the job. Could not talk in what they considered brainstorming sessions, could only listen to the director and not provide any suggestions or even talk! I was hired to implement change and to revamp their systems, ended up managing a support team and had no real authority or support to implement change management or improvements

RN (Former Employee) - Toronto, ON - 17 February 2020

there is a work culture at SMH. It's basically a healthcare facility, therefore, it is complex and fast-paced. If you want to move up it can be difficult depending on many social and institutional factors.

St. Joe’s is a great place to work

Dietary Aide, Full-Time (Current Employee) - Toronto, ON - 21 January 2020

The culture of people at St. Joe’s is a nice culture. Staff are friendly and get along for the most part. The pay could be better, as everything else around us is inflating but the salary. It’s not conducive with the standard of living in the GTA.
