Interviewer | Victoria, BC | 30 janv. 2020
Isolated and poor direction given to interviewers
Good for flexibility of schedule and federal benifits. Motivation and direction are lacking, but management will find scapegoats if something goes wrong. Numerous attempts to harass interviewers into resigning, including threats about the jail time involved in confidentiality issues.
Remote work and little training ongoing.

Great workplace
Great work environment. I learned to work on my own and manage a service request system on my own. The environment/staff was definitely the most enjoyable.

2016 Statistic Canada Census Job
Did a three month term with Statistic Canada in 2016 for the 2016 census. The pay was pretty good at $16 per hour, but the hours weren’t that great. I always thought working at a government job would be Monday to Friday from start times 7-9am to end times 3-5pm, this job was a morning shift, even shifts and weekend shifts. We took phone calls, and then when that job was done we had to visit peoples houses in the area we were working at for that day and knock on peoples doors rain or shine. They, however, did compensate you for kilometres driven (if you had a car), other means of transportation, and parking fees.
Points positifs$16/hr pay
Points négatifsSitting in an office all day, working weekends and nights and working outside rain or shine

Dont think that you'll be getting full-time hours.
Hours of operations are from 9am-11pm. Usually 5.5hr shifts, but never full-time hours in a week. Yearly wage increases and $0.20 premium if you're bilingual. Surveys range from calling businesses to calling the general public. Cubicals, but you won't ever get the same one.

-Management and coworkers are fair; assisted me with home/work duties due to husband's health issues; great team players
