      Pros

      Cool company with cool services and a leader in the industry. Good people who work hard. Team work is encouraged. Events are held to promote sociallizing and fun. Opportunity to work from home or offices closer to home.

      Cons

      Too much demand and too little supply of resources. The work seems to never decrease and yet the number of people we have to do the work seems to decrease. Hiring freezes are the norm and it is difficult to replace when people leave. Being part of a large corporation does slow down our ability to deliver quick innovative solutions as we get bogged down in process and paperwork. We need to make use of some of the technology that we sell.

      Pros

      Growth company, good benefits, lots of opportunity to have several different careers within the same company. If you what to develop yourself, TELUS will pay for your education.

      Cons

      Large corporation can be impersonal and political at times. The forced distribution performance rating system is somewhat disatisfying, particularly if you work in a high performing group.

      Pros

      Considering how much competitors are paying their employees to customer service reps, TELUS is by far the highest paying the cell industry. This not only benefits the employees, but TELUS as well, because there is less of a Churn potential for employees to leave TELUS since they do actually invest alot into proper training. The pay is the best part (except the union dues being deducted). Being unionized is not so bad. When you have seniority developed, there are more options to choose a flexible schedule. If you get the right manager, you are not micromanaged.

      Cons

      The downside is being able to get a day off when they claim that "service level" are high. If you need an emergency day off, it is very hard to get a day. The people that run the scheduling department, as well as the department that allots vacation is horrible. You can only take vacation in half or whole day incriments, when other company like American Express for their customer service reps, they can book personal time in 15 minutes incriments, and personal time comes first before anything else, over and above the stupid service levels. Telus will not pay for our parking at the scarborough location. It costs 50$ per month to part outdoors in parking lots pretty far, or 80$ per month for underground parking. The amount of money we customer service reps. make the company, and help retain upset clients, you think this could be the least they could do.
