Pros

The office space is beautiful and it’s located in downtown Toronto.

Cons

The Canadian entity is flat and everyone reports to the General Manager. Only 1 employee from the entire team had been there for more than a year. I worked there for 2 weeks and was let go by the GM because he said I hadn’t done anything of value in that time, despite not setting any expectations. I personally saw multiple employees cry because of how they were treated by the GM. It is a very sad and toxic place and I truly feel for the employees who work there.

Pros

- Work is too easy and this can also be a con

Cons

- Management are numbers driven. meaning they only care about the volume of donors verse the satisfaction of their works. Staff are sent home early often if you are not needed. - Schedule 1 week in advance which makes it difficult for people to plan their lives ahead of time. - If youre a nurse, and care for patients this is not the place for you. your documentation is governed by auditors without medical training. - repetitive and mundane. - shifts are 7.5 hours to avoid overtime. -high turn over rate due to cut hours. (staff shortage and no incentives for retention) - no upward mobility -benefits are not comparable to other facilities
