Abusive environment and overworked staff

Pros

They are fair with staff in that they happily whip their good horses just as hard as they do the bad ones, whether they deserve it or not. The salary is OK at best. The benefits are very good.

Cons

Inspectors and engineers have recently unionized - that should tell you a lot right there. The CEO and her VPs are grossly unaware about the role of a regulatory authority. They show very little, to no respect towards Directors, Managers and staff. Emails from senior leadership are often threatening in nature. They have lost a good number of talented and knowledgeable people who have left, and are leaving out of frustration; so many are leaving that management no longer post it on their iConnect. The organization is currently undergoing a major transformation. In doing so, they are forcing employees to be involved in the project and expect them to also complete their regular duties as well, on their own time! Survey results of their corporate culture are so bad that they refuse to share the results with anybody outside of the senior executive team, but blame middle managers for the poor results. It used to be a great company to work for under Kathy Milsom. Those days are long gone. Steer clear if you know what's good for you.

Worst CEO Ever

Pros

Dedicated and committed staff passionate about keeping Ontario safe.

Cons

Under the former CEO Michael Beard, the organization lost its focus. He killed morale; lost sight of the public safety mandate; moved the office to an isolated industrial area near the airport; instituted a control and command and paranoid management style; and completely botched an IT project that cost the organization millions of dollars. He was an utter and unmitigated disaster.
