"When I started at Metro 25 years ago as a financial/budget analyst, I didn’t dream that Metro would allow me to face so many challenges in such an exciting field: the food industry. I was able to make the most of my skills in various positions: section head, controller and senior director. I am proud to be ranked among the decision-makers of this great organization where team spirit reigns!"
"It’s hard to believe it has been 16 years already, I started as a part time cashier in our stores and now I am proud to say I am an Accounts Payable Supervisor working towards an Accounting Diploma that will assist me with opportunities to advance further in my career at Metro. I take pride in my work and enjoy the many fun things the company supports throughout the year like; Summer Employee Appreciation BBQ’s, Halloween contests, department events like potluck lunches and the amazing charity support we all can be a part of to support underprivileged children. I am proud to tell others I work for Metro, it is a great company to work for!"
“I started working at Metro twelve years ago as a Scan Coordinator. After holding a variety of positions, I am now a Senior Financial Analyst in Financial Planning. I am proud to work for a company that promotes environmentally friendly programs such as, “Leave it Greener Week”, “Sustainable Fisheries”, and the “Green Apple Program”. Metro also has a strong sense of Canadian identity by having a very recognizable logo. The company does a great job in making people feel valued (both employees and customers) by treating individuals with respect and dignity. I am so grateful to be part of a company that strives to give its best to both its employees, customers, and just as importantly, the community.”
