Working for NavScum is the 'pits'. They treat their controllers like dirt. Their motto is : "We're not happy til you're not happy."
While it is true that the staffing situation is critical, for us it only means mandatory overtime. Another thing to remember is that your chances of being posted in BC are slim. To increase your chances however, tell them that you realllly want to work in Newfoundland. That's the way they operate.
They recently commissioned a 'Climate Survey' to see how the employees felt about the Company. Among some of the nastier findings were that : Most would not recommend NC to their friends or family and; that most would rather work somewhere else given the same remuneration. Very unflattering for the Co. Their answer: "The results are in line with what we expected."
Remember, "the grass is always greener.....
