Disappointing, Frustrating and Crushing - Victoria Field Tech Ledcor Employee Review

This company has a real difficultly understanding the key to success. That is the people they have working for them. You cannot treat people like dirt and expect to have quality people. Management gets raises and HUGE bonus cheques while the field workers take huge pay cuts. They pay well below the average pay in the industry. They ask continually for more work to be done for free. They will find any way they can to save money and if that means screwing the field workers they will not hesitate for a second. They make huge profits and still insist on not paying overtime. They will make you work all stats and weekends. Being a field tech is a great job if you don't mind working 17 hrs a day to make a living. Remember 17 hrs a day when you get paid for 8. The company boasts being a top employer which is obviously fictitious. They offer a great benefits package until you need it and then they will find a way, anyway to keep you from using it. There is little training and then they throw you in the field on piece rate and expect to figure it out. That's fine if you have proper training and support but without it is setting you up for failure. You maintain their vehicles on you own time without pay. If their vehicles are broken into you have to pay for the losses. They don't strive for success of the employees in any way they are only interested in making huge profits. They are by far the worst company you could ever work for. They target immigrants to work for less exploiting cheap labour. If you don't believe me.. Have a look for yourself. The best advice I could give is if you want to get into Telecom, get a job with AFL or Telus directly. They will treat you far better and pay you a living wage. And treat you with respect!
