I had to leave a review because I saw a lot of scathing reviews here that just makes no sense to me at all. I wonder if maybe these individuals were pushing their luck or something and got themselves in trouble one time too many because I cannot relate to any of their experiences. It is very apparent (and empirically proven) that the vast majority of people working at this company, from the shop floor to upper management would agree with me.

I am in the office and I have had an amazing experience working for Saskarc. The company really demonstrates that they care about their employee's beyond just their pay check. The company is more than fair with their compensation. Management is deeply invested in keeping work and providing for the wishes of their employee's all the way from the bottom to the top. Ownership is engaged with the community. Training and education opportunities are encouraged and supported by the company. There's so many reasons to work for Saskarc.

When it comes to training, you're on your own. They provide the opportunities for advancement, if it suits what they need. Personal development is sparse and productivity is #1, despite having unrealistic goals to achieve. They expect you to know your job, give you a print or a welder and told get to it. There also is no job security. They get rid of people they don't like by releasing them without cause. All you have to do is look at someone the wrong way or get emotional at the wrong time.

Part-time workers would enjoy working here, their starting salary is good for someone who will be working for 3 hours a day, 5 days a week. You can also work full-time during the summer months, you'll learn more about the trades if you're willing. Co-workers are the best with the typical bad bunch. The only hard part of the job is during summer where you and two others are tasked at cleaning the blast shed and blast hut. They offer training for welding, forklift and crane operation, and mechanical stuff. Management is pretty flexible for their employees.

If you are someone who feel bad and hurt if you are discriminated or see discrimination this is not the right place for you.

I have been discrimination here, I have seen discrimination here, coworkers/Managers even make fun of people based on body structure - fat, age, female, thin, short, etc.

Do remember being a family owned business, you can't bring your voice like you do in public or multinational companies, etc. The only one's who are written up by HR are the ones Managers are trying to kick out for another reason.

Company run like a dictatorship. Facility only set-up for 14 computers, I was the 15 computer. Computer system continued to crash. I got the blame from Director of HR. You developed a Safety procedure and half way through the system would crash deleting your work. Lots of pressure to have Prequalification networks functioning. Company wasted a year to have the system functionating running but failed. I was hired for two reason - One was a project in Northern Ontario and to solve the prequalification issues. I wouldn't work there again

This  is the most toxic environment  I've ever worked in. It's full of double  standards , poor organization and terrible leadership.. certain workers seem to get away with treating everyone like dirt and bossing their peers around.  Safety comes second to profit and it clearly  shows. This place will make a happy easy going person into a miserable one real quick it drains you.

Pay was OK, horrible management, bad micromanaging. Would not work for again. Most employees followed a very odd religion which conflicted with work and their job. Most had no knowledge in terms of dealing with customers and the oil patch. Hardest part of the job was having to sleep in the service truck in the parking lots of hotels as they wouldnt get me a room

Not a bad place to word if you don’t mind dealing with a lack of intelligence, organization, management with no clue and being lied to on a daily bases.  Also the opportunity of getting serious injured because they are not even close to set up properly for erecting these projects, or have the know how.  Putting them together is always an after thought.  Almost like they are surprised that they had to even though they signed the contract to do so.

I use to work there as Detailing and project manager, it has a good atmosphere and also a keen top management For new challenges . 
If you consider yourself as experienced in steel fabrication area , you are right fit there , or if you are a guy keen to learn and challenge your knowledge, this place is still fit for you.

Only problem there is location , which is far from big cities.

There is a lot of room to learn. I learnt a lot of things about heavy constructions and Project Management. My co-workers were excellent and it was a great learning experience. The hardest part is understanding the protocols as the company has none.
