TELUS reviews

A very tough corporate environment to grow within. Lack of opportunities to move upwards. The revolving door is continuous, as there is quite a lot of employee remorse due to lack of opportunities for upward career advancement. Some co-workers were great. Others were back-stabbers who were very self centred and would do anything negative to get management recognition, even at the expense of their own fellow co-workers. Management was guilty of openly showing favouritism to employees they cared more about. Career advancement here solely depends on your manager's approval. If they didn't like or approve of your work, you're stuck wherever you are for the longest time ever, even if you requested to move to another team in a similar role. They would pretend they were satisfied with your work, but would ever recommend you for a promotion. Overall, it's a great place to start off, experience wise, but in terms of building a career, you're in for a very tough challenge ahead.

Pay has become substandard. Top performers in our team haven't had a raise in years, not even for increased cost of living / inflation. No wonder, when we have 1/3 of he company in the third world countries. Promotions are based on who you know, not what you know.
