A typical day of work would include phone work as well as greeting walk in clients; government employees. Phone work could be government employees as well as their human resources or area contacts.
There were several processes to complete for employees where we did pension estimates, purchase of service estimates and other general enquiries from employees. With government, co-workers come from many different enviroments and are very different. I work with anyone as I learned that you don't have to like everyone but you must work with everyone. I learned this early in my career with the government.
The hardest part of the job was receiving conflicting information from our supervisors of our specific plan.
The most enjoyable part of the job was dealing with our clients and satisfying them with the information we provided.

Restructuring organization with way too many changes to staff work expectations and processes and major micro management has degraded staff morale, engagement and motivation. Overall dissatisfaction along with lack of awareness and sense of purpose and direction from top to bottom. With new management's complete incompetency, lack of direction and leadership, it has become a very toxic environment with questionable decisions made with workplace environment and staffing decisions. Will not and has not retained the best and brightest as many have left or retired just around the time of the so called transformation period and this new generation of hiring new staff lacking in moral office ethics and standards and common sense people skills.

At first I was very happy with work life balance the place had offered, but after a while I realized that there wasn't much opportunities to grow. Management lacks of integrity; all they care is your credentials. You can be a hard worker, dedicated and engaged but that's not enough unless you are certified with something. 

How they project themselves out there shows that they are lacking of self awareness and integrity. What they are promoting who they want to be, not who they really are.

If you need a stepping stone job into government, it doesn't hurt to bear the above pain and find something after a few years.

I was so excited to work here in the project world as they are undergoing some strategic changes. No one has a clue what they are supposed to be doing. Everyone works in tight silos and every manager I interact with treats me like an imbecile. Directors are horribly disorganized and incredibly disengaged. Meeting after meeting of irrelevant and senseless planning leads to a false sense of actually producing something. With so many other great places, skip the headache and work elsewhere. I know I will be soon.

The leadership do not listen to staff. They are in a bubble and, even though they conduct a yearly employee survey, they don't do anything to address staff concerns. 

Tons of governance, a high reliance on contractors, working completely in silos, mixed with archaic leadership and old, tired executives make this a truly horrible workplace. Fine to get your foot in the door of government but otherwise, not too much going for it.

CSR staff are treated like pawns to be moved around.  upper mgmt. does everything to keep their job secure.  Work is very stressful and all movement is monitored.  Working 20 hrs. /wk. is about all I could manage given the level of stress.  Very cult-like environment, 15 min. break per 5 hr. shift.

The culture is deeply cliquish and stale. It feels less like a place for capable, ambitious professionals and more like a place for people quietly winding down their careers. Management is not just poor. It is completely ineffective, and I would rate it a zero. The only real positives are the compensation and benefits.

Constant monitoring and pressure to hit targets. Very little opportunity to learn or grow. Movement is limited and support for development is lacking. Focus is all on results, not employee well-being. You can stay for 10 years and still only gain enough skills to move laterally.





As a co-op student I felt very supported. Especially during the move to remote. I was a part of a very experienced team who were all very open to helping out with issues and lending their expertise to aid in the solutions I was creating.

BC Pension provided fantastic opportunities for co-op students to  work on unique projects and learn valuable skills in the process. Additionally the access co-op students have to upper management in many departments shows a culture of encouragement where questions are welcome.
