Finning reviews

Make you work like a dog, lay off peoples and you have to pick up their workload, discrimination, favoritism, very limited development. Bad decisions always made.

Finning has a name for hiring people at full speed, and then letting them go as their knee jerk reaction to any fluctuation in the value of their share. I was told just before joining them: "Don't do it, they are heartless", and...I didn't listen. 4 years later, after my best performance ever in a company I was let go for no reason, exactly what I was told was going to happen before joining. It was not only me, lots of people from Senior VPs, VPs, Managers, Professionals, not Professionals, you name it all out. Some other large companies do it, I know, what is abnormal is Finning's criteria: if you are not part of the political game of your boss or his boss, you become a target. In good times, they will promise you everything to get you hired. When times get thought, Managers ensure their continuity by keeping around their best political friends...you and your family can take a hike! Beware and listen, I didn't do it and I paid for it!!
