Pros

I worked with City Projects Ltd. as the Bid Coordinator and Administrative Assistant and I reported directly to the President of the company and Accountant/Office Manager. From day one I was treated with nothing more than top level respect and professionalism from all of my colleagues, I was provided with a clean, friendly, safe and positive working environment. As this was my first job working within this industry, I had a lot to learn, I was provided with efficient in-house training and managements door was always open. It was a pleasure to be able to walk into either office, be greeted with a smile and provided with the time, help and answers I was looking for. My employer is one of the most genuine, honest and caring employers I have ever worked for in my past 10 years. He cared not only about my work performance but he also took the time to meet one on one to discuss my work load, always making sure that I was comfortable and not taking on too much. He would always praise me and be very grateful and thankful for any work done. More importantly he didn’t sugar coat any errors in my work, he provided me with constructive criticism when needed and it will always be greatly appreciated. My time spent working with him and at City Projects has significantly added to my lifelong skillset. From my viewpoint City Projects values their employees so much so that they provide them with the equipment and tools required to perform their duties, schooling and further training required to enhance their work skills, a safe and positive working environment, competitive pay packages, benefits and generous vacation allowances. I am and will always be extremely grateful to City Projects for providing me with the opportunity to be part of their team, the skills and knowledge I gained will follow me throughout the rest of my career. I have made some lifelong friendships and will never forget the opportunity given to me by the team at City Projects.

Cons

I honestly cannot think of one negative thing to say about City Projects or the team!

Pros

I started working with city projects back in 2013. I was 17 year old at the time fresh out of high school not knowing where my life was heading to. City projects took me as an apprentice and showed me everything I know. It all started from demolition then I learned framing, drywall,tbar, glass, doors and frames, much more. I have learned more than what is on our scope of work. We sometimes take on specialized work as well. 3 years later at 20 years old I started running small jobs. The jobs got bigger and bigger over the years. Now I’m 26 years old running the biggest jobs in the company. Over the years a skill i have been able to achieve with this company is construction management. They not only teach you how to work but they teach you how to manage and become a leader. If you are a hard worker, show respect and care for your work, they treat you like gold. They put me through school and made me a journeyman. During Covid they had me working my full 8h everyday. It felt like nothing was happening and the pandemic never affected my work. The only reason I am leaving the company is because over the years I started loving construction management a lot and I have decided to take my management skills to the next level. Going to school for project management and will be a site superintendent in the meantime.

Pros

I worked with City Projects close to a year I can honestly say it was one of the most enjoyable experiences I've have had in my career. I worked as an Administrative Coordinator and Accounting Assistant also briefly taking on the role of Bid Coordinator, working closely with the Operations Manager, Accountant and the President of the Company. The President gives candid, constructive feedback to his employees and, in turn, actively requests feedback from them. I was provided clear direction and consistent, valuable performance feedback from him at all times and I am so very grateful for that. This Company wants you to do well in your career. They offer excellent Apprenticeship programs for those on the field. The pay rate is is great to start with room for growth. I was lonesome to leave this company but I have made life long friends and I learned so much. Thank you City Projects and I wish you all the success for the future.

Cons
