Consistent Workdays and Supportive Environment

Food Service Attendant (Ancien employé) - Edmonton, AB - 26 avril 2023

Training for each shift is pretty thorough to ensure you understand the different tasks for each role. Co workers are helpful and work together when you are struggling to complete tasks. Overall a consistent environment, however requires a lot of manual labor (ex. Lifting, walking).

Very bad management and very bad place to work

Integrated care manager (Ancien employé) - Coldlake - 24 avril 2023

Very bad management and manager on site, especially site manager. Very hard to deal with. Never appreciate anything. No support. No job security. No orientation and expect to do things you don't know. Poor management. Unfortunately I have worked there for 5 months. Don't trust anyone.

Points positifs

Good residents

Points négatifs

Very bad site manager

no room for growth. everyday is just all about tasks and until you acquired work-related injury.

Food Service Worker/Cashier (Ancien employé) - Alberta - 20 avril 2023

you work like robots keep chasing time and no chance for personal growth. This is the easiest way to describe AHS. They are more concern on finishing all the tasks on time than how it was being done.

Points positifs

seniority

Points négatifs

life long acquired injury

Great workplace

Primary Care Paramedic (Employé actuel) - Calgary, AB - 20 avril 2023

Things are getting better when it comes to EMS in Calgary. Supervisors and managers seem to have your back now more then ever. I love my job. The schedule is great for my mental health.

Fast paced work place

LPN (Ancien employé) - Alberta - 18 avril 2023

This will not make a difference, but I feel the pay never fits the job. There is never enough workers to work the shift and everyone is run off their feet.

Points positifs

Learning possibilities

Points négatifs

It was okay, but not great.

Emergency Communications Officer (Ancien employé) - Calgary, AB - 18 avril 2023

Management played favourites a lot and would make it pretty obvious. They would even allow favourites to come back after fully resigning when they should have had to go through the whole application process again.The people were nice for the most part, but very cliquey, If you didn't fit in, you had no real friends and I never felt like "family" like they all call each other. The job was rewarding but management was so disorganized with the takeover of several large dispatch centres that it became overwhelming and forced a lot of good people to leave.Night shifts were tough but a lot of people loved them. There are peak shifts but again, unless you're a favourite, you weren't getting any of those.The pay and benefits were good, lots of opportunity for OT, and there was a decent emphasis put on mental health.

Poor culture

Prefer not to say (Ancien employé) - Edmonton, AB - 17 avril 2023

My work site was rife with favouritism and almost seemed to encourage negative behaviour and unprofessional conduct from the favoured few.The "u favourites" were worked harder and targeted for frivolous discipline repeatedly. 5 people taking stress leave and/or outright leaving over 2 years - can't be a coincidence.

Points positifs

Pay, benefits

Points négatifs

Terrible leadership

Not a great place to work

Administration (Ancien employé) - Westlock, Alberta - 15 avril 2023

Unfortunately management is poor. They look for buddy buddy systems instead of professional ones. If you’re not a buddy, doesn’t matter how great you are, management will treat you poorly til you quit.

Not valued or ever rewarded

Administrative Assistant IV (Employé actuel) - Southport Atrium - 13 avril 2023

No support from management, do as we say not as we do attitude. Do not feel valued or ever get rewarded for a job well done. Have to pay for parking to work there, union dues are high and the union is completely useless each and every time I have used them. Lots of staff that do not pull their weight and expect others to pick u their slack, and staff are never disciplined and continue to rob the comply of money.

Points positifs

Can't think of any

Points négatifs

Management is awful, pick favorites, lots of back stabbing and gossiping
