Working in a team

Wow what an amazing place to work and learn, from top management to individual department managers. I was told exactly what to expect from the start, from job expectation to end of season lay off. This was seasonal with lay off at the end of the season. This was never kept a secret so never came as a shock when it did happen. On the job through training daily and staff and team safety was always #1 Learned life skills. Anytime I needed anything no matter the area in any department I was always guided to help me complete the job at hand. All the staff and my manager AMAZING!!!! Open door policy and great leaders! Team players and positive upbeat atmosphere everyday.

Great company, great staff, great management. Highly recommend for anyone looking for P/T or F/T work, in a fantastic environment. Employees receive discounts on purchases (nice perk).

When I started working at TERRA Waterdown as a shipping and receiving employee the first thing I loved was how friendly everyone was and how descriptive the training was. I learned many things at Terra and it helped me understand how to be a better employee. The only thing I did not like was that the job was seasonal although this allowed me to obtain more work experience. I would definitely recommend working at TERRA to someone new looking for a great work experience!

I started out as a part time worker while I was going through university. Working at Terra coincided with my educational background, so I was able to gain experience while having a great time interacting with like-minded people. After I graduated, I started full time, where I was promoted to an assistant manager position. I recently left for another opportunity, but for the 5 years I was with them I had a wonderful work experience.

I had a very great experience working at Terra Greenhouses as a seasonal Sales Associate for the past three summers. As a university student, it was a great opportunity to save money for school, gain experience in the horticulture and retail industry, and build valuable communication and customer service skills that are transferable to any future career. Although hours do get cut back just before school starts again, you work a lot of hours during the peak season.

Additionally, Terra is a great environment to work in. The staff is welcoming and management is very supportive. If you ever need any help answering customers’ gardening questions, the management and senior staff are extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Terra’s teamwork environment meant that everyone cooperated and assisted each other.

All in all, I would highly recommend Terra Hamilton for any students looking for a part-time or seasonal position.

After a few years at Terra I am leaving with lots of wonderful memories and an awesome experience there! Everyone at Terra including management is welcoming, encouraging, and always there to help each other out! Team work is a big part of the job, and it has been a wonderful experience where I learned a lot of new skills to take with me in the future!
