Prestigious organization but doesn't show for it

Recreation Therapy Aide (Employé actuel) - Westview - 12 juillet 2023

I haven't received the right amount of pay for a few days worth of work in about a whole month now. I'm having to call and email multiple people for the money that I deserved a month ago. Maybe it's just me but my management is very strict but they don't get the important things done anyway¿ It is hard to stay in touch with manager. Also, a workplace incident happened with a client who was at fault and there were no consequences at all. I feel disrespected as a worker her. Also, you have to take off Stat days and don't get paid.

Challenging Work Environment - But Engaging

Executive Associate (Ancien employé) - Calgary, AB - 10 juillet 2023

Working at AHS comes with a lot of challenges (like catering to the whims of the current provincial government) and funding cut backs. If you are in a corporate supporting role there are always new challenges and projects that you're handed that make things interesting.

Un productive

Agent (Employé actuel) - Edmonton, AB - 10 juillet 2023

Not a place to work. Every manager work for themselves and block important information. I would not recommend as they appear very down to earth, but in reality they do not respect anyone.

Great pay, heavy workload

Unit Clerk (Employé actuel) - University of Alberta (Edmonton), AB - 9 juillet 2023

I worked at AHS for many years and while the pay was the best in town you worked blood sweat and tears for it. Some of the best physicians in Canada and I learned a great deal about medicine the hardest part was it just never seemed to be enough. They would pile on more and more work then you have to learn all of your coworkers jobs so you can cover for them too

Points positifs

Great pay

Points négatifs

Massive workload

Fast-Paced Environent

Medical Laboratory Assistant (Ancien employé) - Lethbridge, AB - 7 juillet 2023

Working for AHS has made monumental memories and lessons in my life. I enjoyed my years working there as the team in the Chinook Regional Hospital Lab was a great one that strived for an efficient, productive, safety-orientated work life. The Management there was exceptional and always tried their best to accommodate you. As it is inpatient hospital work you have to easily adapt to constant changes and work well under pressure. Being mindful about everything that is going on around you is a must. Communication was key for patient care and asking questions was promoted as you can always learn more. I enjoyed working there and creating long-locating friendships in the lab.

Workplace environment really differs from one area to another

RN (Employé actuel) - Calgary, AB - 2 juillet 2023

Hard to comment on workplace culture as I have had completely opposite experiences working between different units and areas within AHS. Management usually sucks but benefits and pay is supposedly one of the highest in Canada. Unfortunately many things like vacation and overtime eligibility is based on seniority, plus typical issues like short staffing, low morale, etc.

Toxic work environment

Administrative Support III (Employé actuel) - Calgary, AB - 1 juillet 2023

Management only like people who suck up to them and give them what they want. If they don’t like you they make you miserable and try to push you out. Management protects bad workers, covers up mistakes for bad workers and sides with favourites in disagreement, gives all the shifts to favourites and only takes suggestions from favourites. They like target problem employees and find a way to push them out. The environment is stressful and toxic at times. The pay is good but the company culture is poor and the burnout is real. Abuse happens in multiple departments and nothing gets done about it. Don’t stay move on when you can.

Good pay and hours

Human Resources Assistant (Employé actuel) - Edmonton, AB - 25 juin 2023

Excellent benefits and pay. The flexibility to work from home is amazing. Metrics are a bit inaccurate and do not capture all of the things we do within human resources shared services. I've enjoyed my time there but I'm moving to human resources business partners to focus ore clients needs.

Challenging, but rewarding

Admin Support (Ancien employé) - Edmonton, AB - 21 juin 2023

I enjoyed my time at AHS in various temp roles. The temp roles were like a foot in the door, and once you're in it's easy to move to something else that better suits you. All of the roles I held offered me so much support.

fun

Test Engineer (Ancien employé) - Alberta - 16 juin 2023

For the poor parts of working at CBN, in general management is not very good. Often it is hard to understand priorities as tasks tend to be dumped on people and left to them to figure out what to work on and when. But with some of the teams being understaffed generally you will have a number of deadlines that are not all possible without doing unpaid overtime. For some roles such as mine there are also semi-regular overnight and weekend deployments, which do get Time in Lieu. But you will often be deploying the change overnight and then need to support it first thing in the morning which can be draining if there are multiple such deployments in a short span

Horrible

Indigenous relations (Ancien employé) - High Level, AB - 14 juin 2023

Lots of stereotyping of indigenous people from administration, nurses and triage team, the doctors were more professional and nonjudgmental of patientsOutright dehumanizing comments and treatment by management and staff were found “non substantiated “ by HR and “higher ups” even with proof and witnesses. Indigenous relation is a joke put in place to meet government “criteria “, pay is in line with a fast food worker even with experience and education.
