TELUS Mobility – “TELUS, is the future friendly?”

Pros

TELUS' entrepreneurial environment allows for self directed career growh; work life balance is something that is promoted and exhibited by most senior managers. Because of a skew towards young professionals, culture is friendly, casual and dynamic.

Cons

Formal coaching, mentoring and development programs not a high-point. Although TELUS strives to hire the best and brightest, and manages to maintain a material base of consultancy experienced professionals, it does not pay consultant wages. Bonus program is somewhat generous on balance, however does not allow for pay for exceptional performance which results in laissez faire mediocre output at times.

Advice to Senior Management

Walk the talk and help promote career growth. Dont sacrifice short term stock performance for long term competitive sustainability.
