Results and Relationships - What You Can Expect
You need the money to pay your bills, but if working there (the relationship) sucks, you won't stick around. A great relationship starts with being treated like a professional.

At Central Builders PG that means:

• Full timers have a consistent schedule with consistent days off

• You will know your schedule one week in advance.
• We guarantee your scheduled hours
• No calling in to see if you are needed. No being forced to go home in the middle of a shift because there are not enough customers in the store. We expect you to step up when it is busy, so we step up when it is not.

• Your ideas matter

• We have an "every door is an opendoor policy," except for the bathroom, please lock it up, no one wants to see that Central Builders PG is a family business in the best sense of the word. That means getting your great idea or thoughts to the top is as easy as commenting on a Facebook post.

• Professional customer base

• Our customer base is comprised of other professionals. Skilled trades, doctors, lawyers, nurses, teachers, bankers, other bankers. Did I mention bankers yet? Because we are professionals, they treat us with the same respect and dignity that they expect at their job.
• We put square pegs in square holes
• Everyone has a talent, a passion, or an area where they excel. We love to find what people enjoy and do everything we can to let them do that.

• We don't micromanage

• We expect you to take ownership of solving problems that you see.
• NO PROVERBIAL "KARENS" PERMITTED
• Dealing with the proverbial "Karens" having a bad day is not your responsibility. It is ours. Your job is to be polite and call a manager or supervisor. We have your back.

A professional with a sense of humour who wants to work with other professionals


Our values are:
