Canpar express

Eat sleep work. Shifts are long and tiring, with hours that leave you with nothing else to do when you are finished and too tired to do anything before start. Endlessly stacking boxes in a trailer. Management sucks, lucky to get benefits after a year of work as you have to wait for them to post an availability for warehouse A. Once you are warehouse A, you have to meet their hour demands with little to no flexibility. Continue to work as a warehouse B with flexibility and you are seeing benefits after 5 years. Starting pay is horrible compared to the work you are doing. If you're able to last 2 years, than you can expect more reasonable wages but most people quit in a month. Working conditions are horrible. In the summer the trailers are basically like an oven, winter gets really cold, and when it rains the trailer starts to flood because there is no proper protection from the rain. I wouldn't work here unless you are desperate as they basically hire anyone. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
2 paid 15 minute breaks, and a paid lunch

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The office politics, especially between the warehouse workers, drivers, and administration 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Fast paced environment for about 2 hours, then sitting around with your thumb up your crack waiting for the next truck

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Walk in at the start, say good morning, sweep, scan boxes sometimes, sort boxes for drivers and outgoing parcels, pretend to work for an hour until the first truck shows up, spend an hour unloading and sorting. Sit around and wait for the next truck, rush to get his first trailer done before lunch, take lunch, spend the next hour after unloading boxes, leave early because there's nothing to do and the lifer doesn't want to keep you there.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Working alone is the best part. Way too many hours recently expected to work, tax man enjoys it. Weather conditions are extreme heat and cold for 80% of the year. Its micro managed by a separate company. There's alot to say, I dont recommend.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Stupid drivers on the road, heat or cold exhaustion.  Long hours, heavy lifting, high expectations.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Dont know where to start. Keep to yourself, work your bum off and hope they like you. Keep it simple

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Look at my other answers. I waisted way to much time on saving this company. Its ran by loomis

Fast-paced and somewhat relaxing as you're by yourself driving and delivering packages. This is not a good place to work as this company has no weight restrictions. I've had to deliver umpteen packages in excess of 150lbs. Pay isn't horrible but the lowest on the spectrum of couriers. If you expect any gratitude or thanks you won't get it here. Just another Cooperation that cares about upper management and share holders. Your hard work goes unnoticed.  Run away from here because even the Union there aren't on the employees side. BIG JOKE of a poorly managed company. 

This position is literally up to replace me. Canpar was originally ok to work for until they did a management turnover and then restructured to the extent that there aren't enough employees to perform the tasks. They laid off three people on a four person shift and expected one worker to take on the work of everyone without so much as a pay increase. One should not work there unless facing homelessness.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Benefits and working with different groups of individuals 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Behind on your working load filling up trucks

Friendly staff nice terminal manager. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Working long hours and even weekends.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Stressing and trying to get things done in a timely matter.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Busy and stress. Always walking late never had time to be home.

They treat staff as a number and fail to treat everyone with respect. It operates as a top-down run organization. The company fails to work on improving processes to make things more efficient. This is discouraged from the top.

I've been working at Canpar for 2 years, and it's been a rewarding experience. The team is collaborative, management is supportive, and the company genuinely cares about employee growth. I appreciate the open communication and positive work environment.

An over all lack of managment skills/people skills. Zero leadership, and a lot of arguing with managers about route sizes and workload. just not an enjoyable place to be first thing in the morning. once on the road it isnt so bad depending if you were dispatched correctly
