Physical Environment

In 2003, CARIS added a major new building to its head office complex, a third addition to the campus-like setting.

This main building offers an open-concept design providing an interactive, team-oriented environment to encourage communication and idea sharing.

Custom-designed, the facility features ten foot high windows across the entire front of the building through which employees can enjoy plenty of natural light and a peaceful view of Odell Park.

The central location also provides employees easy access to numerous stores and services and to the City's walking trail system.

Team Environment

Together as a team, we accomplish more! Our organization is structured to be performance driven and client responsive. CARIS offers a team environment, where business causal attire is acceptable.

Social Atmosphere

CARIS has an employee-driven social committee. The committee organizes a variety of events throughout the year, including pizza and sub lunches; golf, chess and floor hockey tournaments; a winter carnival with sleigh rides, skiing and snowboarding, bowling and an ice sculpture contest; as well as an employee appreciation dinner event.

Employees have access to a floor hockey rink onsite! The rink is also equipped with basketball nets and has been used for roller-blading and soccer (football for those from outside of North America).

Community Involvement

CARIS is a good corporate citizen and takes pride in giving back to the community, supporting a variety of charitable initiatives. Employees are encouraged to take part in the selection of charitable organizations assisted by the company.

Further support goes to the Food Bank every year during the Christmas holidays through the collection of donated food items from its employees as well as Christmas hampers for families in need.

Together with the Canadian Blood Services, regularly scheduled blood donor clinics are organized exclusively at CARIS facilities for employees who wish to participate.

Total Compensation Offering

Recruiting and retaining a diverse group of qualified, valuable team members contributes to the success of CARIS corporate objectives. The CARIS compensation package is designed to achieve this.

CARIS provides a comprehensive total compensation package including salary, group benefits, Matched RRSP Contribution Plan and other programs and services designed to attract, retain, reward, and motivate each employee's commitment and performance.
