Pros

Excellent company, great benefits. There's a lot of opportunities to learn how big companies work. Infrastructure is amazing and the offices are big and well maintained.

Cons

Management: My manager was a woman who would make inappropriate comments about the size of my breasts and the value of my clothes (constant comments such as "did you make those clothes yourself?") were a daily situation. She would also explain how she wouldn't read the code of conduct of the organization as it had no value to her; hence her behaviour. My manager would also make constant comments about my height and general physical appearance (hair, makeup, shoes, etc.). I was unable to get into the mentorship program as she indicated: "I am a mentor and you get to work with me everyday". Job promotions, in most cases in my department, were given based on how much of a good friend you were with her and not based on merit or experience. BentallKennedy does a survey to evaluate their managers, but it is NOT confidential. Most employees won't say how they feel because of the lack of confidentiality. I tried to talk to HR about this and they explained they couldn't keep this kind of harassment information confidential. I was constantly tormented by the comments of this manager, her attitude, insecurities and extremely unprofessional way of working. This behaviour was general towards women, never with men. I was forced to get another job at a different company where human resources rules apply. I did learn a lot a BentallKennedy.

It was a great experience overall; the interview process was quick and smooth as well. The relationships I'm made at this company will follow me for years to come.

Cons

Intern work is often not substantial but it leaves room for building relationships and participating in company culture.
