Awful culture, awful leadership

Pros

I honestly don't have anything positive to say about this company. Awful cultures and values.

Cons

This company has the worst culture I have ever seen, driven by negative and uninspired leaders. During my time working here I was blamed for several mistakes of others, berated, yelled at, and knocked down. The pay range is low in comparison with other industries and there were little to no options for advancement. The work-life balance itself is horrible and you will often find yourself working overtime with no sign of appreciation. This place has no value for it's employees, and instead of encouraging, they shame. Take this review as a red flag- this employer will not be in your corner and will often times throw you under the bus.

As an employer, we take great pride in providing meaningful work opportunities for our team members, and we put a lot of thought and effort into cultivating a caring and compassionate workplace. Our corporate values include appreciation for one another, as well as policies that ensure that this comes through in a number of ways, including a compensation philosophy that places us, as a certified Living Wage employer, at a higher pay level than the average. I would encourage you to reach out to me directly at tbaena@parcliving.ca to discuss your experience so that we can address any issues that require resolution.
