Pluspunten
You will get support you need to get the job done. Every Friday at 4 pm it is casual time where you can have beer and chat with your coworkers. Your pay is fully dependent on your job performance.
Minpunten
The owner only cares about money which is why you are getting a lot of training every Tuesday and Thursday. To him we are like an investment. If you are not up to his expectations you will get terminated, plain and simple. I was terminated after coming back from compassionate leave and his reason was poor performance. My poor performance was due to family issues but he does not care. Moreover, when I asked for compassionate leave the owner did not approve it but according to the BC employment standards it should be given even though it is an unpaid leave. There was intense discussion with the owner about this. It is very ironic that this company is promoting work life balance and flexibility.
If you are further considered as an applicant you will be invited to meet with the owner's wife who is a family physician. This was meant to be a behavioral interview to see if you are good fit to the company but I was asked several personal questions that are illegal. Due to my background I was asked when I moved to Canada, my personal status, family and age. With the competitive job market I decided to answer those questions. These questions have nothing to do with the job at all.
