private:universityofalberta https://www.indeed.com/cmp/university-of-alberta/reviews Jan 26th, 2021 12:00AM Open Open Open University of Alberta Program Assistant Edmonton, AB CAN Good benefits and an opportunity to learn. The job was based on contract funding and ended with the end date of the grant. It was heavy on the administrative support side but allowed me to learn a lot of skills and expand my network. The hardest part was learning how to coordinate exam practice sessions. Great co-workers, good benefits Some hours outside weekdays, very routine and unexciting for most workdays. 0.0 0.0 4.0 4.0 4.0 3.0 5.0 3.0 Feb 2nd, 2021 05:26PM Mar 19th, 2021 07:54PM University of Alberta Consumer Services General Retailers

private:universityofalberta https://www.indeed.com/cmp/university-of-alberta/reviews Dec 7th, 2020 12:00AM Open Open Open University of Alberta Nursing Attendent Practicum - Pediatric Emergency Edmonton, AB CAN Excellent training I enjoyed my employment experience at the U of A. I worked in Pediatric Emergency, I love children very much! The couple different groups of ladies I got to work under and learn from were excellent, such nice smart people, with the patients and guidance you'd always hope for in a Practicum or new job experience! I would take a job in the same area again, with the hope of same experiences and people. Work environment Was a Practicum for school such a short time of work experience. 0.0 0.0 5.0 4.0 4.0 4.0 4.0 5.0 Feb 2nd, 2021 05:26PM Mar 20th, 2021 01:05PM University of Alberta Consumer Services General Retailers
private:universityofalberta https://www.indeed.com/cmp/university-of-alberta/reviews Nov 24th, 2020 12:00AM Open Open Open University of Alberta IT Systems Analyst Edmonton, AB CAN This place is an amazing place to work I never thought that work for an education institution would be so great. At my time with the U of A, I have learned and grew my experience. My leadership team has given me the tools and support to enhance my skills. The culture is super inclusive so I know everyone is looked at as equal. This is a place to stay for the long haul. 7 hour work days, Christmas Shutdown, amazing benefits Vacation days need to be accrued before they can be taken 0.0 0.0 5.0 5.0 5.0 3.0 5.0 5.0 Feb 2nd, 2021 05:26PM Mar 20th, 2021 01:06PM University of Alberta Consumer Services General Retailers

private:universityofalberta https://www.indeed.com/cmp/university-of-alberta/reviews Nov 13th, 2020 12:00AM Open Open Open University of Alberta Administrative Assistant Edmonton, AB CAN Mostly secure workplace with some upward mobility - but toxic work culture The perks (free lunches and remission of tuition) and benefits were excellent, plus the union helped keep jobs secure and salaries well-compensated. The lunch hours were 1 hour long, and you still got paid for 30 minutes. Plus, work-life balance, personal development, and schedule flexibility (some departments even gave Flex time!) were very valued. But, huge discrepancies with workplace culture within certain faculties and departments. Also, 'lifers' became complacent and worked like unionized teamsters. So, many work departments were more toxic than others. And work recognition or encouragement for career development was rare. Free lunches and classes, great benefits with union, decent job security Toxic work culture prevalent, challenging to deal with Academic personalities and egos at times 0.0 0.0 4.0 5.0 1.0 3.0 5.0 2.0 Feb 2nd, 2021 05:26PM Mar 20th, 2021 01:07PM University of Alberta Consumer Services General Retailers

Top heavy. Can't get anything done. Supervisor constantly holding job security over your head.
