Bio lab demo
Laboratory Demonstrator (Current Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 15 May 2022
Indeed featured review
The most useful review selected by IndeedDo this if you can! Great opportunity to connect with profs and students. Good relationship building & helps you learn as well. It’s not a bad job & pays decently for being in regular semester labs 1 time a week. Try it out!! It’s been a great experience for me personally.
Pros
Building relationships

Great work environment
Analyst (Former Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 1 May 2022
I worked with a great team and a supportive manager. I didn't have direct experience, but had transferable skills, so I learned a lot on the job. There are high expectations here, and my efforts were appreciated. The salary wasn't high but certainly livable.

Easy and collaborative
Event Assistant (Current Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 10 February 2022
Easy-going, collaborative, and flexible. Con is only that your hours aren't set and it depends on availability of the position on a certain day so you may for example work just once a week even though you would like to work more hours.
Pros
Easy-going and friendly atmosphere
Cons
Work week hours are not set and dependent on events. Majority of work is at night.

Fun workplace with free food
Volunteer (Former Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 20 February 2020
I work as a volunteer there. I learned about the safety policies of customers. The most enjoyable part of the job is communicating with people. The workplace is very comfortable. I enjoy working there. Somedays like during the night it use to be very busy but that's where I think the fun begins.

Great workplace experience. Not much training, however the job was quite straight forward.
Lab Technician and Marker (Former Employee) - University of winnipeg - 1 February 2020
I was offered the job due to my ability to interact and form connections with my classmates, as well as my passion for the course. In preparation for the job, I made sure that I was more than prepared for any occasion/obstacle that might appear. Most of my training was a quick run-through on what to expect so, but not much in the field. I, however, am a very quick learner and took to the job quickly.

Depends on who you TA for
Teaching Assistant (Former Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 23 October 2019
Depending on who you are matched with (I say matched with because I've applied to TA with certain professors, and will get put up with a different professor I didn't apply to work with), the work can be good and challenging. If you are unlucky however, the person you work for could be unorganized to the point where you don't get work because they don't answer emails - you are paid on the hours you input.

Great culture, low income.
Academic Support (TA/Grader) (Former Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 2 October 2019
Professional, well-managed and supportive place to work. Salary is not quite on-par with academic support positions in other Canadian universities but overall my experience with my supervising professors and department chair was excellent.
