About Thompson Construction Group
Thompson Construction Group is a reputable company to work for, known for their generosity and commitment to charitable causes. Many employees, including long-term staff, speak positively of their experiences with the company. However, there have been some issues with the handling of employee departures, such as not allowing them to finish their two weeks' notice and leaving their belongings behind. Despite this, new hires can expect a supportive and inclusive environment at Fort Hills. The company's values and work culture are highly regarded by the majority of its staff.
I worked with Thompson back in 2006 - 2010 (went on mat leave). Then decided to come back in 2019. They did not change! They are still the amazing company I worked for back then. They take pride in everything they do. They are amazing to their employees. They are very generous to many charities and kids sports. Love working for this company!!
Thompson was a great place to work in maintenance I had great Supervisors and the crew was great majority of the time. I only gave 3 stars because when I put my two weeks notice in they told me to not bother coming in leaving my luggage in civeo camp with no way for me to retrieve it. I emailed and was told that I either had to have a friend pickup or a courier sent to Mclelland lake to retrieve my belongings. The fact they wouldn't even let me finish off my two weeks with them and abandoning all my work gear without the decency to even make an effort to get it back to me speaks volumes for someone they considered an asset to their company.
From the longevity of most staff (from office to management to field) it's a sure sign that it's a great group to join.New hire, immediately felt at home at Fort Hills. Lots of support from head office and other departments.
