50 best employers in Canada - The Globe and Mail
Aviation and everything connected with it is noticeable for its minute representation. WestJet was the sole air operator to make the list. Federal Express Canada (air freight) and Flight Centre Canada (travel) were the only others with an aviation connection. It's not surprising that there were no 703/704 companies included. Their medieval human resources policies and incompetent/uncaring management exclude them from such lists!
While WestJet might be a good company to work for it is certainly not a good company to be a customer of with its ever changing restrictions, predatory pricing and bullying attitude towards the travelling public. This also applies to other airlines. It is no excuse for airline management to say that they have been told to do it by the government(s) or that it is the law. That was the excuse given at the Nuremberg Trials. It was not accepted as a valid excuse then (numerous culprits were hanged or imprisoned) and it is not acceptable now. Companies and their managers are supposed to have consciences and conduct themselves accordingly.
