Interesting thing about this job is that you get behind the scenes experience of postal service. Typical day - come to work and start sorting all incoming mail. By the time you finished there's a constant stream of people looking for their parcels, letters etc. Sometimes you might have a quiet hour or two, but mostly there's always something happening.

Friendly atmosphere; Lots of downtime

Post Office Assistant (Employé actuel) - Pickle Lake, ON - 22 juin 2022

A typical day at work consists of selling postal products, inducting incoming/outgoing parcels, mail sortation, and delivery. Since it's an office in a small town, the workload is more than manageable. There will be times where you can be super busy (holiday peak-season), and other times where it is very slow (summer months, typically). The hardest part of the job is juggling between serving customers while at the same time sorting the daily mail. The most enjoyable part is when the mail is done being sorted - waiting for residents to pick up their mail and parcels.

Great work, some people not so great

Mail clerk (Employé actuel) - Winnipeg, MB - 22 juin 2022

This is the best job I ever had but it's not for everyone, you have to be on your feet all day handling heavy stuff at a pretty fast pace. There are a lot of different shifts available but they're awarded by seniority, it will be a long time before you can pick yours. The supervisors are mostly really great. On a less positive note the workers are very entitled, some of them do hardly any work and some are bullies. Don't come if you're just there for the money and don't like to move freight.

Points positifs

wages

Points négatifs

some coworkers are too entitled and don't do any work

Wonderful Place to work, Great Balance and Culture is Improving Daily

Superintendent (Employé actuel) - Simcoe, ON - 17 juin 2022

I started as a Casual Letter Carrier in Waterloo, ON. Right from the get go, I felt supported, valued, and cared for. I was told in training that safety is number one, and no one has deviated from that message my whole career.I loved working outside, and getting to know my city, like only a Letter Carrier can. Eventually, when I wanted to challenge myself, my supervisor guided me through the process and mentored me. I became a supervisor after 18 months, and my superintendent recognized my potential, and started to mentor me as well.The culture at Canada Post is improving daily. New initiatives, and proactive campaigns are being announced all the time. They acknowledge the errors of their past and active work with their stakeholders to improve themselves, on every level. Now I am an area Superintendent, and I still have plenty of opportunities for growth, recognition, and mentorship. I take a personal interest in the careers of all 96 of my subordinates, and work with them to get them to their career destination. Whether it’s managing our socials media accounts, or working collaboratively with international police agencies. Canada Post is an equal opportunity for every Canadian. Welcome all. The more we diversify, the stronger we become.

Points positifs

Benefits, Pension, Bonuses, Recognition, Uniforms Provided

Points négatifs

Can be a long period as a Casual.

Treason by the Union

Letter Carrier/Delivery Agent (Ancien employé) - Ontario - 14 juin 2022

Day at work = routineI learned that like anywhere else in life, injustice occur and no one will be there for you in case you are bullied by the top management.I was completely ignored by the Union and no support from anyone in difficult times. The hardest part of the job is to give everything you have and getting bullied in return. Do not apply, save your life for someone who deserve you.

Term position is all on me and the location that hired me doesn’t help or even think I exist

Part-time term Casual (Ancien employé) - Erin, ON - 7 juin 2022

There is no opportunity to move ahead as 4 years as a term. I have to find my own work.And cannot return to work as an unvaxxed employee…. There seems no end to the Covid enforced terms. I would not recommend a term position job to anyone in Canada post unless they wanted a sporadic work load and/or didn’t require regular income.

Good company but always look over you're shoulder.

Letter carrier (Employé actuel) - Regina, SK - 7 juin 2022

I enjoy working with my co-workers and delivering mail and parcels on the street. Sadly the smallest error, or accusation will get you a 5 day suspension or fired. Having a union doesn't always help. Always look over you're shoulder when delivering mail, because they follow you around in undercover cars watching you, hoping you make an error.

High salary better benefits. Job security and friendly environment. There are different department to choose from so with the shift, whatever is best for your family. Management will accommodate you as much as they could if you need accommodation.

Horrible place to work
