Repetitive Frustrations that fall on deaf ears
CPIC Operator (Former Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 26 November 2022
Nothing ever changes, yet complaints are raised all the time. You have a managerial staff who couldn't care less about their people. Their too scared to make mistakes which often leaves the workers in the lurch.

Never a dull moment
Police Constable (Former Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 1 April 2020
You can take your career in many directions. Start out on patrol and then move to investigations, or public relations or working with children. But don't let the police role absorb your life maintain interests outside of policing

Many good officers
Police Officer (Former Employee) - Winnipeg, MB - 20 January 2019
Good people in the rank and file, not so much in management.
The rank and file are some of the best people that I have worked with, but police work in a swamp. In a swamp, cream doesn't rise to the top, scum rises to the top.
Pros
Important work
Cons
Night shift
