I got an offer for a job offer at Talisman (accounting job) and wanted to know what people thought of the company, perks, culture, etc. Word on the street is that they are a good employer but wanted to get more opinions.

What is your accounting position they offered? What group? I know a few of their accountants...Good from what they say....
Didn't they just lay off a lot of people? How are they offering jobs?
Having a dozen too many HR people and 3 too many geologists doesn't help you fill an accounting job.Originally posted by sabad66

what kind of accounting role is this?
It's true, you'd need four geologists to do the work of one accountant. But that only works if you can get them to stop doing the journal entries in pencil crayon.Originally posted by davidI

I hear they kick ass as a company, even one of the geo's that recently got laid off (probably they were looking for a way to cut his sorry emo ass anyway...but I digress) still thinks it's an awesome company.
from the word i've been hearing - they've become the new sweat shop in calgary.
And these are accounting folks i've heard from.
my friend works there
sounds more like a drama filled non working place than an actual office
You can technically get a ticket for each window that's illegally tinted. So as above, if you're being an ass to the officer (or if he's just an ass to begin with), he can give you two. (or three tickets if you're dumb enough to tint the windshield of your BMW... but if you own a BMW you can't be stupid right?)

They buy lots of vehicles from us so I'm sure if you play your cards right you could be driving one courtesy of them someday.
Looking for a new VW? How about a used vehicle? We are Central Albertas #1 source for pre-owned vehicles

they are a top 50 employer in alberta....id say thats good.
I currently work there, PM me if you have any specific questions.
Overall, I enjoy it there. Saving plans, stock options, fitness subsidy, flex days, etc are all pretty good.
There is a bunch of beyonders there. Most would agree it's a good place to be.
You heard that too hey? Had a few friends that worked there... more drama than high school.Originally posted by sh0ko

That sounds like every office I've ever worked in... they become such toxic playgrounds after awhile...Originally posted by sh0ko

Depends, in offices it's there if you go looking for it. I kept my nose out of a lot of the drama when I worked in the office.Originally posted by masoncgy
