Yipi (Former Employee) – Ontario – 28 January 2019
When I was in the yipi program it was a real eye opener for young people interested in policing or first responding. The tours and other career opportunities we explored had a major impact on helping me decide on what I would like to do in the future. I wish more people knew about this amazing opportunity
Pros
Once in a lifetime opportunity, great opportunities to network, enjoyable
Cons
Only a summer position, I would have loved to continue
Fun workplace with incredible opportunities for professional and personal growth

Student Cadet (Former Employee) – Markham, ON – 16 March 2018
The people i met and were able to work along side were fantastic. The experience i gained will greatly assist me in my future career. The hours were great and pay was never an issue
Very poor management
Member (Current Employee) – Aurora, ON – 4 December 2017
They claim best employer - however the treatment of the employees is very poor in many areas (lots of bullying, harassment and duty allocation inequality). An extremely poor human resources department. There are great benefits and if you have a University education you will have access to apply to some good paying positions.
Great Career
Officer Administrative Support (Former Employee) – Aurora, ON – 31 August 2016
The police association which acts like a union is amazing and extremely supportive of its members.
The actual job is very rewarding and I absolutely loved it.

Amazing Job Placement
Office Assistant (Former Employee) – Newmarket, ON – 30 November 2014
i worked there as a temporary worker too learn more about police officers. it was never a boring day at the job, there was always something new to do. I learned a lot about the Human Resources department and what police officers do in the office. The hardest job of the part was getting around from place to place, it was a very grand HQ, and having to organize everything for when they were moving out, was difficult. The most enjoyable was being able to work with the officers, and get to know their work environment.
Pros
Great coworkers, great compensation, very friendly staff
Cons
can be very demanding and being a quick learner is a must
Great place to work!
Youth In Policing (Former Employee) – Markham, ON – 27 May 2014
Working with YRP was great. It was a good workplace and gave young students the chance to see the criminal justice side of the world. It was great being able to help out in the community and work with kids. The hours were great and didn't interfere with our school life.
