Advantages/Disadvantages
Best Pay
Municipal employees are best paid in Québec. Especially Montréal
Inflexible schedule
Only three weeks of vacation for many years and little scheduling flexibility
Difficult to obtain
Even employment counselors have told me that few of their clients had gotten a job at the Ville de Montréal
Salary Progression
As far as I can tell, the general payscale does not appear to be public.
That said, this article from LaPresse (French only) indicates that over a third of city employees make more than $100,000 per year, and that Montreal is the highest paying of all of Québec’s municipalities.
