No room for advancement - Legal Services Officer Legal Aid Alberta Employee Review

Pros

Monday to Friday work hours with stat holidays off. Overtime is not required.

Cons

Phone calls are monitored from the time we sign in until the time we sign out (7 hours). When the phone calls are not all answered, staff have to call them back instead of just clearing the queues. It often feels like a "them" vs "us". Hiring freeze makes it very, very stressful as we always seem to be working short staffed. This company has been in a state of "change" for the past 3 years. The job is mentally exhausting and the stress of being monitored is oppressive. No room for advancement.

Pros

Good benefits, good co-workers*, frontline staff are genuinely doing meaningful work.

Cons

Leadership is actively hostile to their staff. There are needless amounts of Directors, managers, etc that serve only to make your job more difficult than it needs to be. Their are significant issues with racial prejudice which is really disappointing in an organization like this.
