Hendriks Greenhouses

Hendrik's has been the most disappointing and unfulfilling place to work. The hours are not steady whatsoever (as a full-time worker I was often sent home after only 4 hrs or I would come into work only to see that I had not been scheduled in that day). Management does not treat you like an intellectual being. You are to follow instructions and that's all. You will start with inadequate training and are expected to know everything right off the get-go. They are disorganized as a company and you will dread going into work, and leave feeling sore and tired with very little income to show for it all. It's a shame because it has potential to be a good place to work - but it will prove to be a disappointment and a waste of your time. If you want to feel worthless and put strain on your body for little-to-no money at all, then Hendriks is the place for you!

I worked here for about a month being told I was doing great and if I had any questions not to be worried to ask. Then they let me go with no reason. They did this to two other new staff as well, we all worked there for about 3 weeks before they pulled us aside and let us go. They have no work right now, if you get hired for full time (40 hours) you’ll be working about 5-6 hours a day which is not full time. They won’t tell you your proper hours and then once you tell them starting at 5:30am doesn’t work for you, they will make a big deal out of it. Management is horrible, unrealistic expectations of staff. Don’t work here unless it’s your last choice but be aware they will let you go without notice. Great place if you want to become unhoused! Not reliable! 

hard physical work in greenhouse. Low pay for the amount of labour one must endure . No advancements , they post inside promotions only to hire outside. Management has no professional training and therefore treat staff like slaves. I saw first hand a manager tell a greenhouse staff to lay down on the dirty floor on his stomach with his chin up to see if a paint line was straight. I have worked with racoon droppings , over my head and when I reported it I was in trouble for doing so.  No overtime. No benefits. And you work with real cockroaches, not just the odd one or two, but infested. They don't care and it shows.

I worked at Hendriks for 5 weeks in the spring to help them with the busy Easter and Mother's day time. It was very busy and it felt like a very fast and enjoyable time. I meT A lot of new people and made some new friends. I like that they play all different music throughout the day.  I had the same line leader for almost the whole time which was nice because they knew what i was good at and would put me where i was comfortable each day. The hardest part of the job was learning to plant on an assembly line but after a week I was really good at it and i liked to do it :) I hope I can go back to Hendriks next spring.

Horrible work environment. It's hot, it's dangerous, there is no attention safety with management on the cellphones flying around in forklifts, going out for drinks and coming back and driving said forklifts, raccoon and rat poo all over the work areas, the owner brings in his dog even though it's bitten several employees, no general safety protocol in the warehouse with people expected to work underneath a shelf as a forklift is moving stuff around on the same shelf.

Amazed this place hasn't been shut down yet.

Amazing workplace with really supportive management! The environment is positive, energetic, and genuinely enjoyable to be part of, and everyone comes in with a great attitude, and it really shows. It’s inspiring to see how passionate the leadership team is, not just about the work but about the people as well. They clearly care about their employees and create a space where everyone feels valued. Keep up the fantastic work!


As a current employee, I enjoy working at Hendriks. The employees are fun to work with and we have a great team atmosphere. The company is growing and offers plenty of opportunities if you want it. The management is fair and understanding and will often come down to help out on the floor when needed. The hours are steady and I feel like my job is secure. I would totally recommend Hendriks if you are looking for a job!!!

HR and Management do not  not care about employees. 
Turn over is high, pay is not great.  The staff work hard to do their jobs, there  is no appreciation...just expectations.  Management are extremely judgemental.  Push for what they want with little gratitude when you go above and beyond. 
Sadly was not a nice place to work.

No communication with Management
Released from potential employment due to poor attendance, make sure your personal life and doctors visits during a pandemic don't effect your attendance to their workplace.
Under appreciated and overworked.
If you see anyone in a good mood there, they are part of the main staff and have job security/ benefits.
Supervisor was unprofessional and disorganized.

Greenhouse labour is not for everyone. It's not just looking at pretty plants and doing a bit of weeding. 
It's long hours of standing at times, uncomfortably hot in warmer weather, repetitive work and strenuous movements.
But the morale is fantastic, people are great, never a dull moment and no 2 days are the same.
I truly enjoyed working there.
