Too good to be bad
Business Analyst (Former Employee) – Toronto, ON – 18 November 2018
Excellent company.. But IT Manager and Director are both dummies. Not sure how they're surviving for so long. Even Project Managers are biggest dummies and ask for SQL scripts which they've no freaking idea.. No recognition for people....
If I were the boss, I would've fired all these goodies..

Accounts Payable Clerk (Current Employee) – Toronto Pearson International Airport, ON – 29 October 2018
The environment is very welcoming, individuals here are always willing to lend a hand even when they are busy themselves. The workload is a little stressful at times, but proper time management and organizational skills can really assist you in growing on your professional skills.
Intense Work Place
General Sales Manager Man/Sask (Former Employee) – Winnipeg, MB – 27 November 2018
You need to be totally committed to be successful. Company is undergoing a complete transformation. Employees need to be engaged and dependable. Growth opportunities are certainly there for the right person
Pros
Lots of mentoring available
oui tout a fait productif
Assistante gérante et gérante (Former Employee) – Saint-Hyacinthe, QC – 13 September 2018
Tres agreable de travaille comme commis de planche et de travaille en equipe et d apprendre de nouvelle responsabilite comme assistante gerante. Et le plus difficile c est de prendre la gerance sans connaitre trop ce que sa impliquait.
Pros
pains gratuits
Cons
pas aucune assurence.
Its a job.
Production Worker (Former Employee) – Cobourg, ON – 13 July 2018
Great coworkers. Helpful and friendly.
Regularly lose hours if working afternoon shift. Send people home early.
Jobs aren't difficult but standing in one spot can be back breaking.
Lots of hurry up to get done but lots of waiting and pretending to be busy when lines go down.
High turnover and no job security as a temp employee.
Bottom line is that it's a job that anyone can do. Pay isn't great but there are opportunities to develop production skills

Was okay
Material Handler (Former Employee) – Cobourg, ON – 29 July 2018
A lot of temps currently working there. I figured I'd be there a long time before getting hired permanent. Supervisors and lead hands were friendly. No scheduled breaks or lunch time due to being on an assembly line. Some down time while working on the assembly line due to project switching. Other than that, it was okay if you want an income.
Got to work independently
Truck Driver (Current Employee) – Toronto, ON – 4 December 2018
Got to work independently, interact with people, enjoyed driving all around the GTA, job included me having to go in and out of hotels, fine dining restaurants, and high courts.
Great working experience and very pleasant working environment.
Compliance Coordinator (Former Employee) – Toronto, ON – 4 September 2018
Very generous with training and seminar. lots of freebies and incentives for the employees. Learned different things and experience everyday. Open for school and career advancement.
Fast and precise
Maintenance Technician (Former Employee) – Brampton, ON – 4 September 2018
Working at the vary fast packaging lines,sometime it is hard but I was surrounded with a lot of good people,willing to offer anything they coul;d do getting the job done
Pros
Clean environment
Cons
Very cold when you have to work in the freezer
Do not apply here
Millwright Apprentice (Former Employee) – Sudbury, ON – 11 June 2018
Reviewing the sudbury ontario location. This job is a joke. The pay is garbage (16 dollars an hour), they give you horrible shifts (noon to 1030 pm), have you work 3 different jobs (millwright, electrician, and production) and the supervisor changes his mind 10 times in a minute and makes literally zero sense when he talks. All the provided shop gear is in bad shape and safety is not very high on the priority list to say the least.
Look somewhere else for work
