Not sure what was happening with this company at the time of my lay-off, but they really f***ed up. Letting me to believe that i was coming back to work by flying me back to Labrador on their muskrat falls project, transporting me by bus from town towards camp, only to find out at the security gate that i was laid off that day, and then spending two unpaid days in camp and then flown back to Nova Scotia. And I was only one of many that happened to. The whole job consisted of people who didn't know what was going on more than half the time and seemed to not care cause they were getting paid anyway. The formwork system was new to most (DOKA) but treated like it was rocket science by most, which was also disheartening because it was simple and could've been even more simple if middle management ie: supers, gf's foreman had told the higher supervision to actually prepare enough material ahead of time, ex: form panels, material, tools etc. before hiring 200 plus carpenters whom were laid off because productivity output didn't match financial input. The saddest part about it was that I would go back there in a heartbeat cause the money was good.

ASTALDI is an international construction group.It constructs large and technologically complex infrastructures. Astaldi currently operates in 6 macro-areas worldwide. I worked at their Canadian Office.  My typical day at work consisted of:
Managing top management Agendas; maximizing time, prioritizing functions and appointments and meetings.
Taking care  domestic and foreign travel arrangements, prepare itineraries. Assisting managers with special projects as needed, including office moves and relocation. Coordinating logistics for colleagues and managers who are transferred to Canada on a temporary and permanent basis.
Participating in and coordinating committees or task forces, as assigned; prepare meeting’s agenda and documentation. Acting as liaison between Italian Head Offices and Canadian branch.  Learning about the Commercial Construction Field has been very enjoyable.

No comapny design and drafting standards in place.

Organized drawings schedule and reorganize based on daily emergencies.

Learned to work effectively without having implemented guidelines in place.

Learned to develop and implement design standards for the development of construction drawings.

Learned that communication between co-workers is key to keeping design standards in place for the benefit of the project.

Co-workers were very effective in working in an unorganized environment and responsive to fast pace changes.

Hardest part = At first, keeping up with the changes. Then maintaining communication and design standards effectively without support from management.

The company preaches safety on paper but in the field it is not a concern. Half the time you are not provided safety gear tgat you need and their is no communication between trades. If you express a concern you are brushed off. If their is an incident they try to blame the worker and if they can't they brush it under the rug instead of dealing with the under lying issues. I was hurt 3 times in the 1.5 years I worked for them all due to safety concerns I had previously brought up and filed paper work on.  I would avoid this company if possible.

It's unfortunate that this company was so poorly-run. There were many smart and talented people working for the company on a major hydro project, but the management group were completely incompetent. From not paying suppliers, to allowing vendors to cut off fuel (on a construction site!) this company was a disaster. 

They were eventually kicked off site by the contractor. There were times they couldn't make payroll. Safety and Quality were not even considerations. 

If I could rate this company as 0 stars, I would.

I worked with astaldi Canada from March to September 2017, and I must say that the experience was very rewarding. Great company to work for, and they readily accepted your input. 
So very happy that I had the chance to work for such a great group of people. 
Highly recommended.

I have gained a wide range of new skills and abilities such as dealing with the public on Political issues.  I also learned about hiring protocols and the role of the Unions in the workplace.  I worked closely with the administrative assistant to the Project Manager of this company and taught me how to complete travel requests, bookings and cancellations, PO requests and how to greet the public .

I loved this job, I was learning every day, I was working in a wide variety of positions and I was very appreciated for all that I did.
Cultural diversity in the work place was amazing and I learned a lot about many people.
Salary was amazing, and I worked a lot of long hours but it was really suited for me at that time in my life.
