Schindler

My typical day is a running start, phones, dealing with Techs and Mechanic, On Call, Purolator shipping. Incoming and out going mail. Dispersing to proper person. T&M reports and Invoices, accounts payable coding, NI drawings and binder set ups. AEDARSA applications, Payroll once a week. Dealing with assignments from Branch manager, Accounts manager, EI, NI, Field Co-ordinator. Ordering uniforms. Updating Job Change orders and closeouts, staff lists and filing. There is always something new in the Elevator business, whether it be paperwork to keeping things running smoothly or what goes on in the field that the Techs and Mechanics need, such as Purchase orders, parts. In all the time I've been with Schindler Elevators, there isn't one person that I didn't like. Especially the field workers. They are really wonderful and considerate of what our position does and needs.

I worked for scindler  elevator for almost 5 years .....They had many problems in the Calgary Branch  ....they decided to fire me  working as a driver and send me home with 2 weeks sevranc pay.....I hired a lawyer and i got my money and pay for my lawyer ....it took almost a year  ....and I lost my job  ......so the moral of the story is that  Schindler elevator  did not  act as a good employer and I believe they will continue to  treat thier workers as  scapegoats  to poor mangment  in this orgenazation  .....just stay away  and you will  not  get hurt.   I would never recomend this company to anyone  and  I will always say  -- you were warned  by a past employee who really worked hard for them  .....

Typical day at work included data entry.  I learned about elevator maintenance doing time and material input.  The management were ok, distant.  The workplace culture was great.  Most of the people were around the same age and spent time together during lunch, breaks and outside the office.  I don't recall anything hard about this position.  The most enjoyable part was the comradery.

Typical day at work is answering customer calls, data entry, filing, AR/AP, the list goes on.
Learned at lot in the position of Service Coordinator.
Second Manager since I've worked, so far so good.
Get on great with my co-works.
Hardest part of my job is the catch up.
There's never a dull moment at work.

Good paying industry but work life balance is not important to executive team.  Canadian President is the most narcissistic person I have ever met - very narrow minded putting employees and customers second to profit.  The future doesn't look good for Schindler Canada with the current executive team in place. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
Experience in a multinational company 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Outdated operations systems,  lack of process and standard.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Hard workers are not valued. People work hard, not smart.

Different regime with different visions and directions. Difficult to execute with different opinions or plan coming from the top. Try to do the best to keep the organization going.

First off, if you only want a paycheck then it's the place for you. If you want manageable Kpi's, work life balance and any support whatsoever? Then run as fast as you can away. Company does not believe in supporting it's people properly and no one follows the disgusting number of policies in place here.

An unfortunate experience since new leadership. Worse since there is a lack of focus on cost utilisation (giving all VP's Company cars, parking spots etc does not benefit the company)

The company culture at Schindler is collaborative and supportive. From day one, I felt welcomed by my team, which encouraged open communication and knowledge sharing. The management is approachable and values employee feedback, creating an environment where everyone feels heard.
