City of Canning

Awful and toxic work culture with a staff turnover of around 6 months. People are miserable here and it’s for good reason. The mismanagement and incompetence shown at all levels is frankly disgusting and the waste of resources, time, effort, and ultimately ratepayer money is beyond a joke. Anyone thinking of applying for a job here should seriously reconsider and think about whether they want the next 6-12 months of their lives to be full of stress, frustration, and likely depression as none of the management know what they are doing. The lack of intelligence throughout the organisation has led to what can only be described as an appalling working life. Do not work here. Ever.

Low morale and a lot of backstabbing

I thurrily enjoyed my time at city of canning, 
I was taken In as a young support worker with helping hands and lots of training to get me to my level of experience I am at today. 
The staff and clients were both lovely to work with and a pleasure to be waking up to each day.

working conditions are good and friendly staff in different departments.
I loved working there and the machinery was up to date and well maintained.
upgrades in departments where looked at and judged on budget for that dept. other wise saying not this year.

A lovely bunch of people overall to work with.
Management style is relatively good, the culture is not so good.
the best was not being micro managed as I had been in previous roles

A very reactionary workplace. It's typical of an organisation trying to drag its self into modern times whilst experiencing resistance to change. However, there are some awesome people that work for this organisation.

Great place to work. Employees well supported. 
Compassionate and helpful. 
Flexible hours with varied services offered to clients.  Good communications within departments.
Lots of training offered.
