Strike-Group

I’ve had a positive experience working at Strike Group overall. The company has a strong safety culture, which is taken seriously at all levels. They provide plenty of training and development opportunities, and if you're willing to put in the effort, there are clear paths for career advancement. Many employees have grown within the company, which speaks to its commitment to internal promotions.

The work environment is fast-paced, and expectations are high, which can be both a positive and a challenge. The workload can be demanding at times, but leadership is supportive, and there’s a strong team atmosphere.

Compensation and benefits are competitive within the industry, though work-life balance can vary depending on the role and project location. Some field positions require extensive travel, which may not suit everyone.

Overall, Strike Group would be a great choice for those looking to build a career in construction, especially if safety and career development are priorities.

The supervision is arrogant, condescending, and unprofessional. They do not respect employees or treat them as part of a team. Management creates a toxic culture where negativity spreads from the top down. Instead of supporting workers, supervisors dismiss concerns and demand more without offering guidance or solutions.

The company promotes poor culture, where favoritism and disrespect overshadow effort and skill. Hard work is rarely acknowledged, and there is little motivation to grow or improve. Supervisors act lazy yet demand results from employees, creating frustration and resentment.

Wages are low compared to the workload and industry standards. The expectation is to give more time and energy without fair pay or recognition. There is no balance between work and personal life, which pushes many to burn out quickly.

Overall, this is not a supportive or sustainable place to work. The problems start at the top with supervision.

Very aggressive superintendents and foreman here.  Had a small altercation with one and instantly had a target on my back.  Even after I had discussion's regarding the way I was being talked to never help but made the situation worse.  It was only a mater of time and I was kicked to the curb after a years service with no other complaints. Their supervisors are very young and have a very immature attitude making embarrassing comments in front of clients. I was in the site office and if you don’t click with the main guys style, your gone. Harder for a seasoned mature person to relate with these young power trippers. 

I was with the major projects division and moved to a new location roughly every year.
Great culture amongst crews, and management was generally easy to work with. 
Very steady and work life balance was above average for industry. 
I would have stayed on indefinitely if the wages were even remotely competitive for 'big inch' work, and since leaving, my lowest wage has still been 30% higher than what I was making here.


However, it would be a great place to start out and learn a trade.


Strike does an excellent job keeping competent professionals employed, they do keep their regulars as busy as possible, Management team is hard to work for as employment roles and responsibilities are somewhat undefined and employees are expected to work at levels way above what their current compensation calls for.

Overall the entire experience has seemed very unorganized and thrown together. Enjoyed the management but not having any form of schedule and then working for prolonged periods of time and constantly being thrown into jobsites with unknown kind of opened my eyes to some level of disorganization. Grateful for the work experience but it will put a large stressor on your personal life.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Very poor company to work for.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
They don't appreciate good people, they are dishonest.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very poor in every division exept whitecourt.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Stressful. Noone helps, very clicks.

I have never dreaded a job so much in my life. My main role as an apprentice was cutting pipe to size and beveling it. I learnt absolutely nothing about welding while working here, they expect you to practice on your own time. The supervisor was rude and looked down upon you. Very little direction or help from the supervisor and treated you as if your useless/replaceable. Do not recommend (as an apprentice).  

I work on projects mostly for Strike in remote areas. The scope is generally mechanical and electrical with some civil work.
They are considerate in meeting my needs such as camp rooms, travel accomodation and scheduling.
I am a contractor Safety coordinator and my job is both challenging and rewarding. We are always building new teams as per the needs of the client.


Fast paced environment where you will learn a lot. High expectations but typical for industrial construction. The best thing about working with Strike is the team. Although they are a bigger company they still have a local/family feel. Would highly recommend working for Strike if you are okay with out of town work and extended hours/shifts.
