Better than most - Anonymous employee Smartcentres Employee Review

Provides great training when onboarding

Lack a sense of work place culture, feels very divided

There are some good people to work with who you can learn from Decent training is provided for most positions Financial educational assistance provided

Absolutely awful culture Long hours are expected every day Taking your vacation is frowned upon and a frustrating process Work life balance isn't possible if you want to have a future there They feel they own you Half hearted attempts at things like fitness programs fall short of useful Salary is not competitive No pension or long term incentives Benefits offered are the bare minimum and have been scaled back in recent years Very few opportunities to move up Management spends an absurd amount of time babysitting grown men and women Degrading attempts to blame others is the norm Favouritism and nepotism are rampant Be prepared to be scolded for what others are commended for - double standards are ridiculous Everyone is in a constant state of panic for what inevitably turns out to be nothing urgent at all No opportunities to actually make decisions or use common sense Essentially a sweat shop where you're expected to be quiet for as long as humanly possible and do mindless work
