If someone informs CIC or CBSA and if they investigate the matter, they could decide to take action against you AND your employer because it's illegal to work at a place not specified on your work permit. In terms of consequences, if you're currently working in Canada, you could be deported. Your immigration application could be refused. Your employer could be fined or blacklisted from using the TFWP in future.

Well, i had an open WP at that instance.

And there was that particular application where i had to tell my employers address. I just did the one that i got hired at and my employer also gave me the job offer letter from that particular location,, but to me personally a lie is a lie no matter what. And i was worried a little if it could also have consequences within the IRPA

You should have said you were working on an open work permit because that changes things completely. With such a permit, you can work wherever you want. So you shouldn't have hesitated to name both locations on the immigration application when asked. The fact that you omitted to mention the 2nd location could be considered misrepresentation but I would guess the consequences are less serious due to your status.
