Venture Elevator

Worked here for awhile and was able to see why the employee turnover was so high.
Management is the main downfall of the company. There's many, many, many times that issues could've been resolved with simple communication but instead were left until the last minute, or until it became a larger problem than initially addressed.
Management doesn't take responsibility for their mistakes and places it on the employee, and at times ive seen action taken against that employee for Managements mistake.
They have and will go back on agreements you have with them if they become unhappy with you. Make sure you have documentation for all agreements.
Lots of times they will work out deals with employees, saying what agreements they have with other employees doesn't concern you.
They have at times pushed me to perform work I wasnt licensed to do and had me perform repairs solo I later learned require 2 people to complete safely. 
They say saftey is number one, but what I saw/experienced was different.
Overall I wouldn't recommend working at this company until Management has been fixed.

 Every day at work is fun and you always learn something. Since I joined Venture I worked/ got trained by different mechanics, so that was really good because you get to see different solutions/ mentality by different people on the same task . Owners and Management always got our back and they are there 24/7 for us ,( even for personal reasons) . Our culture (Core) is have fun, stay safe and 1 hour work for 1 hour pay. Sometimes job may get hard, but the good thing is that Venture has capable mechanics that if you seek some help they will provide it over the phone or even drive on site. We are the highest paid trade ( per hour) in the elevator industry and our Benefits and pension plan is just great.Last but not least the most enjoyable part of my job is the relationship between us . There is no envy between us and people really have an amazing relationship with each other that I have never seen before. 

This is a great company for those who aren't afraid of work.  
'Hide and seek for two grand a week' certainly doesn't cut it here. 

Venture actively tries to better it's mechanics in all aspects of the trade with the expectation that they will take on more and more responsibility. This is a place for people who are looking to better their skillset.

The team is friendly and helpful. Since day one people have been happy to answer my questions and help to better myself as a tradesman.

Management is busy but always willing to make time for questions or concerns. I have never felt ignored or let down.

Safety is #1 here. Venture supplies equipment and training from day 1. The company has weekly safety meetings and training sessions to keep everyone in the loop and up to date with the latest issues and procedures. 

The pay and benefits are excellent, you are expected to pull your weight. 

I would recommend Venture Elevator to everyone. 
This is a great place to work.

I've been with Venture Elevator for approximately three years and have found that the company values and appreciates motivated, customer-oriented employees. 
Employee pay and benefits are among the highest in the industry. There is regular weekly communication with employees geared toward safety and training, in which employees are encouraged to contribute. 
That said, the company faces obvious challenges due to the proprietary, ultra-competitive nature of its business, but is succeeding and growing with a customer first mentality.
This makes mercenary, "hide and seek for two grand a week" attitudes sometimes found in the industry unsustainable. 
Overall, I have found working for Venture Elevator to be a challenging but positive experience.

Venture is a very good company to work for.  Employees are not just numbers or overheads, each and every one is treated well and valued.

The company highly values the safety of its employees. The management is always willing to learn and adapt from both its employees and the elevator industry.

All being said, it is however not an easy  place for the lazy and rigid, but for those who can learn and adapt very quick. If you are not willing to take challenges and push yourself to the limits then it might not be the right place for you. 

Lastly, the remuneration is well above the industry average and balances well with the job satisfaction, which is rare in even bigger companies.


This is a great place to build a long-term career in the trade. The owner truly looks after his apprentices and invests in their development. Everyone I work with is willing to teach, answer questions, and make sure you understand the work rather than just getting through the day.

The pay is excellent and the benefits are solid, which shows the company values its employees. There are lots of opportunities to learn new skills, take on more responsibility, and advance as you gain experience. Overall, it’s a respectful, supportive environment where hard work is recognized and growth is encouraged.

I've been at Venture for 2 years now, and I love it. Reading the reviews here I thought I'd give my two cents. Yes employee turn over has been high, but in their defense anyone who has been let go has been for good reason in my time. We cover a lot of area and all sorts of equipment, if you are not skilled or experienced you won't succeed. We now have a great team of like minded individuals and are looking to add to that. If you are self motivated, skilled, experienced and want to be part of a non global family friendly work environment, then Venture is the place for you. I say family friendly because to Venture you are a person not a payroll number.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The best part of working here is working with the rest of the underpaid and overworked guys. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Dealing with the owner.  Refuses to listen to options, alternate points of view or differing opinions. Rules by fear as a typical despot dictator 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Profit over people. Production over safety.

Venture Elevator is without question the best company I have ever worked for; I have never felt more valued or appreciated than I do here. Management actively checks in and offers incredible support and takes the time to train without judgement. I genuinely look forward to going to work every day.

Management are very professional and fair to every workers. The company president is honest person and very knowledgeable when it comes to Elevator.  I've never seen a company helping people from other countries until they become a citizen of Canada. 
I'm happy working on this Company - I don't care what other people say, but, it's the reality that Venture is going to be a big competitor of the "big dogs".
