BARTLE & GIBSON

well being there for 2 months in the warehouse at times my supervisor was so moody he would get mad at you for just a question,he made it
very hard to be around at times.  also the fellow i was replacing was encouraged to come back if he wanted. so the management decided that since i was in my 90 days probation they just told me my services were no longer required.and that was that i was out  and he is back in.
i never had any indication that i was doing any wrong. i was never late showed up every day. i sometimes didn't understand what my supervisor
wanted but his demeanor at times was so up and down.  also the guy that came back is not only a friend of the warehouse supervisor but they are roomates .    i think the whole thing was un professional just check into it
because there has not been a posting for a warehouse replacement in any of the job sites for this position

In a day I would handle walk-in customers as well as phone calls, order picking, receiving, and Warehouse related tasks. I also managed smaller quotes and handled a number of accounts personally. Anyone from a contractor to Hutterite colonies come in which helped me expand my knowledge in a huge amount of areas.

Work environment was good and work was pretty easy to keep up to in a day. I had to pull overtime to make things work but it's expected sometimes. Management was kind of lackluster, little guidance and little training. Everything I learned was spur of the moment and that can be very hard when you've never done a certain task ever. There was never really a clear company goal so I just tried to make a lot of sales to compensate.

I started in Shipping, learning to find, pick, pack and ship different plumbing, heating and electrical parts. I worked with many people in the warehouse and nearly all were friendly and eager to help with any questions/tasks. Management helped move me and train me on the reception desk where I learned to manage a multiple line phone system, money tendering and outgoing invoices and helped improve my customer service skills. I spent the last few month in the office helping to organize files, sorting and scanning incoming invoices into the system and entering relevant data. The reception and office staff were the best part of my job as they were all friendly and taught me so much in my time.

Decent place to work. Training is minimal, most people do 10 hours of overtime per week, and refer to coworkers as "work family". They have after work activities such as wine club. I heard from may coworkers that they hadn't received raises in years. If you fit in, and the starting pay is what you can live on for years it will be great. But good luck getting raises, and if you don't fit in, no one will talk to you unless necessary. They do supply lunch every couple weeks or so in the form of bbqing burgers for everyone. 

If you are looking for a place that will be your entire life, then this is the place to be. If you are looking for work life balance, you probably won't fit in. 

Great customers to work with. Awesome Christmas party’s. But  They don’t take the time to check in with all employees on how the work place environment is. Very few employees at wetaskiwin branch. Lots of negativity and harassment. Human Resources is absolutely no help

Bartle & Gibson has been my home for the past 10 years and is a great place to work! A strong family feel and a company that cares about its employees. Has lots of room for advancement with many different career paths. Whether your looking for warehousing, sales, managing, IT and more, Bartle has a home for you. They have great benefits and flexibility to work with your scheduling needs. If you're thinking about a change of employment or looking to get a career path started, I highly recommend Bartle and Gibson!

The job is extremely busy and there is a lack of properly trained personnel which can get dangerous. Lead hands are sometimes are to find and that leaves inexperienced people in charge. 

They are a revolving door for new hires and they are forced to go onto night shift even when there is now way for them to get home at night. 

There is really no sense of teamwork even when your on the same team.

Upper management and purchasing just want results even though you are under staffed and suppliers pack their trucks in a very inconvenient way.

A typical day at work was to come in and check the orders that needed to be filled, along with attending to customers and courier driver and truck driver needs. 
The management was very friendly and easy to get along with, as well were the co-workers. Vey fun atmosphere.
Hardest part of the job was finding room for extra supplies that came in.
Most enjoyable part of the job was the fast pace and the friendly people I encountered.

Moving up in the company is next to impossible, no matter how much work you put in to move up or get a promotion. 
Was told by one CEO I was not worth being paid more or move within the company. And once I left (and gave 2 weeks notice) my vacation a disappeared from the system .. and was never paid out for it.
People in the warehouse are great to work with and will help you whenever you need it. 
There is too much conflict and drama with the people “upstairs” for a smooth and enjoyable work environment
