Rooms are big and clean. Gym has a great selection of machines and weights. The food off "the line" is pretty good if it isn't swimming in grease. The pre-made lunches are not good (tiny serving of meat and loads of rice or potatoes - starch). Fruit and veggies selection is also good. Staff everywhere are very kind and accommodating. The only improvement is food. Otherwise, it's amazing.

I had a short 5 day job and stayed here, for the first time in 10 years the dinners and breakfast was good, and even the staff were friendly and actually happy, the lunches are not very good yet, but still a huge improvement,

The only good thing about staying here is eventually you leave. The Aostra road to Fort McMurray village is poorly maintained gravel, if you find yourself on it while it’s wet in your personal vehicle it can be really bad. The rooms have recently moved from being cleaned quite regularly to almost not at all. They’ll tell you it’s cleaned weekly but it’s actually changed to every 7 days. This means it gets cleaned once on a 14 day shift. The motivating factor for this post is I’m sitting in my camp room on day 10 and it hasn’t been cleaned once. The room you get on arrival is also going to range from somewhat clean to absolutely disgusting. Not exaggerating, the smells and stains in these is rank and often times really off putting. Nobody has any pride in staying here, the hallways are often tracked with mud 20 or 30’ from the boot room. The food offered is through a provider called “Red “Table” but our crews call it “red label” and to call it food is being generous. It feels like every corner possible has been cut to reduce Civeo’s expense. Recently the fruit cups that you would find anywhere made by Dole has been replaced with a product from China. I’ve had mouldy food regularly and been present when my supervisor has emailed someone with the camp to express dissatisfaction. Also Wolverine is considered the Syncrude camp. The other camps are for Suncor employees.. or so I’ve been told. They have much better options and snack options like pop, chips and candies. Some coworkers refuse to eat at Wolverine and walk to them some distance in the mornings. The only real redeeming quality of the camp is its close proximity to site.

After having a rather tall, lanky person in casual attire with a civeo name tag, lean and reach over my food twice in the breakfast line up and then crowd me and basically reach around me to use the rolling toaster that I was already using with no excuse me and only a giggled "sorry about that" with a silly look on his face it is incredibly hard to have anything nice to say about this camp. It is truly hard to believe that after all that happened during 2020, there are still people this unbelievably ignorant and rude in managerial positions. I am not impressed.

Don’t trust any five star reviews from “local guides”. They are either getting paid to post these reviews or to get points. This camp is designed to take away any last remaining vestiges of mental health you had before you came here. Kitchen is a “serve yourself” buffet that is completely unsanitary, so you get to dish up using utensils that 500 other people have handled. Next up: bottled water and drinks are unavailable for packing into lunches. This is the only camp I’ve ever seen that does not provide drinks for lunches. Most camps have an area outside the kitchen where you can hang your backpack while you have breakfast and grab your lunch. Not here. Instead, you have to walk your lunch back to your room to get your bag. For $200 a night or whatever the employers are paying, it’s terrible value. It’s just an American owned outfit that hates workers and tries to extract as much profit as possible while delivering as little value as they can. Avoid this place at all costs, unless you want to experience rock bottom.
