Pros

Nothing so far, since they bought Voxpro is only getting worse

Cons

-They bought Voxpro and since that, this is only getting worse than before. For example:They took away our Christmas bonus (250 euros). -We don´t have any benefits at all, no sick days, no health care... -So Voxpro/Telus has opened 3 different offices in the last 2 years and has no money to give us the Xmas bonus, health insurance, sick days and so on... -We are continuously being watched (time that you take to go to the bathroom and so on). This isn´t human at all. -We were promised a bonus (400 euros) for doing our productivity and 2 days before pay day, they told us that they didn´t have money to pay us. -On that same day, all the big management had a party outside where they announced the fantastic "lake" that they are going to build outside

Pros

Free popcorn and hot dogs on first Friday.

Cons

I received an email to work hurricane Harvey in Las Vegas after fingerprints and background check. I was hired so I quit the job I was at to help. Five days later myself and about 100 others were let go because of background from FEMA. Then the pay card they gave me was not assigned to me meaning no money. They gave me another that further delayed getting paid by another 24 hours. I quit a good job to work at Telia and can't go back now. Really bad form on their part and extremely bad for me.

Pros

Work from home is probably the only incentive left at Telus. There used to be lots of great incentives and advantages, but those have all but vanished over the years.

Cons

- Pay is below average to average at best (this is even specifically stated on the internal HR site) - Opportunities to move up are few and far between - A lot of work is constantly being moved offshore and many departments are being minimized - Company-wide wage freeze for the next few years means bye-bye to salary increases - As noted above, many of the perks Telus used to give have all but vanished, and every year something else is taken away. I've seen this now year after year for almost 15 years.
