Pros

Location, 35 hours per week

Cons

Toxic work environment where there is no opportunity to grow and develop. Significant lack of progressive thinking, tools and systems. Outdated top management positional authority style that stifles employee growth and development. There needs to be change. Halton is able to retain long term employees who are hostage to the OMERS pension plan. Stop hiding behind your frosted, locked glass office and find out what’s really going on. No meaningful change will ever happen with management surrounding themselves with the same set people with no new thinking
