Purolator Courrier

What is the best part of working at the company?
Full time regular hours. Good pay for the type of job. Easy work but you must be quick on your feet, no dawdling.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Pressure to get all deliveries done every day, on time.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Excellent. Management is always ready to help out with training and fellow employees are always ready to give a hand as needed.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
As an owner operator, I arrive with my truck, park in my spot and load my truck. Leave the depot , go to my route. Make the deliveries and pick ups as required and return to the depot. Unload the pickups and any freight which was undeliverable.
Usually a 12 hr day from arrival in the morning to departure from the depot in the evening.

retail co-workers who have been there for almost 15-30+years  try to be the boss of everything move that happens there. They are clicky and take all the easy jobs while leaving the harder ones for others. So much gossip between the two workers the guy and the older short blond lady. They are always have their private meetings without including others. Others feel ostracized here. very stressful environment to work for. People should enjoy going to work on a daily basis's. If you don't fit in their little click you never will. They are ignorant towards their own co workers and do anythjng they can to "push them" out they say. just not fun all around. I do not recommend.

The 'management style' here is brutal. Basically, one either keeps up or gets out. There is very little union support. So NEVER say you can; 't or you won't or you need more training. Also, "being nice" (defined as always saying yes to any demand no matter how unreasonable or unethical) is expected. If you can learn quickly and execute without error and you don't mind being unappreciated the money and benefits are ok. Or if you have a masochistic bent and enjoy being overworked, brutally criticized and publically humiliated then this is the company for you. 

It's union, that has pros and cons. The work is physically demanding. It helps if you can read an address lable and count to 100. Gets pretty boring after a while. Not always protected from the weather. Good people working there, but management doesn't challenge us enough. Steady shift but start and end times vary with volume. Opportunities for advancement are overrated and require decades of seniority. Benefits are mediocre, but you get them for a 30 hour shift. It's a job.

The work place culture is appalling, the company talks a big game but does little to enforce its core goals and beliefs more time is spent on protecting individuals with little to no work ethic while they run their hard workers into the ground. There’s no accountability and feels more like the inmates are running their hard workers show I do not recommend them as a good employer 

Purolator was such an amazing company to work for! Nothing like I've experienced before. The depot I was in had great employees, very friendly and outgoing, and the management there was unbelievable! From day one they made me feel like part of the family! Highly suggest working here! I have nothing but great things to stay! I left Purolator do to personal reasons and nothing else!

Purolator is a place where you can grow and create a career path, as you take charge of your personal development and a supportive leader.

I am lucky to be under amazing directors, they always makes you feel as a person and not as a number and I was lucky to be here with my team.

Purolator also has great corporate values, and want to make their presence in the market and community felt with a positive impact.

You get to work 5 days with weekends off. Which sounds great until you realize that those 5 days you work end up being 16-23hours long. Yes, there are days where you only work 4hours but those are farther and farther apart. They need more drivers and warehouse workers during the busy seasons. Oh and because its mail, you have to deal with people complaining about late parcels.
