Best Home Services

What can I say,  I have been on both sides of the fence with Best a technician and a manager.  I really would strongly advise anybody with a family or wants a home life. Also make sure that you work 40 hours a week so you can get your base pay that’s all a joke too I know actively that they cut the hours on ST on the technicians in the field during set times or adjust the hours to suit their needs! Do Not to apply for a position! management or technician!  There is no reward for working 80 hours in a week or work 10 to 12 hours on a Saturday and on Sunday At least I had to work maybe four hours And that’s a break!! The management side of things the office is not a fun atmosphere between upset customers calling be monitored feeling like it’s the Soviet Union type of atmosphere in the 1950s This is also including the Incompetency of upper management With trade knowledge. Most of the good ones have left their Positions or moved on from here there is about four left that I respect that Genuinely care. And there is some good things about the company so its not all negative They have a play/arcade room most material is in house most the time And most of the vehicles are newer as of now that was becoming an issue but as of now there. Holidays in life insurance health insurance etc. If you wanna meet those goals you have to really hustle it is not unattainable.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The best part about working for a complete. It is a very wealthy company and you make it that way, and you have the potential to make as much money as you want to make . if you know how to do your job and are good at your job and take pride in your work NR up to  date with your code book

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The most stressful part about this job is maintaining a clear log of all jobs that you are doing and getting paid for learning how Payment works is a big part of the job. For such a big company they have a lot of problem making sure that your payment is correct. On top of you being in Electrician you also gotta be an account. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The work environment very fast. Pace The more job to get done the more potential of you making more money however, if you are always at work, y’all lacking at home have to know what you are willing to give up to get to where you wanna get to

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
a typical day with this company after the first two weeks will be waking up early to arrive at the shop to pick up your materials and go to your next job and finishing late. It is always good to know how many jobs you have on your own day, so you know what ahead for you.

Typical work day is when coming into work you don't know what has happened from the time you left the day prior to when you get in. the entire schedule could be completely different than how you left it. Technicians can call out and your entire day is mixed up. That is the nature of the job. You have to take everyday and work with it the best you can and just make sure everyone is up to date and been communicated with. Management is great, they are very helpful with everything. Communication could be better, but no one is perfect so communication is always going to be a struggle. The hardest part of my job is to be able to keep everyone satisfied with the calls that are being ran. I have fantastic technicians that love to make money and it is hard some days with the calls on the board to make everyone happy. The most enjoyable part of my job is by far the people I work with. I had moved to Florida not knowing anyone and Best took me in and they are now like family to me.

If you’re very proactive and a go getter, this is a great place for you.. only if you can handle stress very well. There’s enough work for all year around, which was a huge plus but there was a lot of politics involved.  Management was never supportive and only cared about their bottom line. We were forced to go to a weekly meeting every week and sit there and waste our time. Nothing was ever accomplished in these meetings. I also think dispatch was a massive issue that never got addressed, something so simple to fix but was neglected. Money was amazing but the stress was very high due to the stuff you would have to do to make a sale. One thing I will say that’s incredible about this place is the work life balance, i never ever had an issue taking off of work when i was there. Overall I would definitely go back if a couple of things are addressed, i had a decent experience. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
There really isn't one.but let's try and think real hard and find one... 


What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
I truly enjoy the meetings where they brag about the overpriced jobs they sell to clueless people.


What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Your on you own and there is zero support from the office.


What is a typical day like for you at the company?
You will go to mostly dumb leads that will generate zero dollars for you, they save the good calls for there low life sales people.

there is no hourly rate.
they may tell you that there is but that doesn't exist. You get paid on what you sell and and install and it won't be much.
You will be a ping-pong ball driving most of the day average a hour drive time between leads.

Management is horrible and they treat employees like garbage. Most of them barely know what they're doing anyways. As long as the owners are making money they allow their management to do whatever they want. It's hard for them to find good people. I wonder why? Massive rotating door, because most people that even attempt to work here believe it's something it's truly not. They only care about big sales and how much money you can make them. Get used to working 10-14hrs a day, 6-7 days a week and traveling 1-2hrs between calls. (7 days a week from 8am-10pm are scheduled calls) They are ridiculously expensive and they require you to call a manager on every call to negotiate pricing. 100% commission company. Pay attention to your paycheck because fighting for your correct pay is a weekly battle.

The only issues I've had with this company were individuals, not policy. Usually management is pretty good at being involved when you need them, whether it be a work or personal issue. I do feel that there are people who actually care about the employees and do their best to make everything go as smoothly as possible, and overall I've never been happier at any other job. The incentives are fantastic, and there is usually a lot of work as far as call volume for technicians. When I have a family emergency, they understand and make sure im covered, and that also means a lot to me. 

Best Home Services is a family owned and operated company!
They have a purpose — a mission — that everyone understands. Even better, every employee can tell you the role he or she plays in achieving that purpose.
This is my family away from home, I came to this company fully prepared to sell my self in my job interview, walking in to Best Home Services was by far the BEST decision i have ever made. The management team values all staffers’ opinions as well as fosters communication among coworkers.There is a personality to this company its not like any other company i have worked for.
 I Love My Job !!  Do you  ??

What is the best part of working at the company?
Well-stocked box trucks (even toilets and water heaters!).

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Commission pay only. Drive time isn't paid (it may have changed since 2019, when I left).

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Back in 2019, when I was working there, work environment was typical of a big corporate company - a lot of micro-managing. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
A good number of plumbing calls in a large territory (from north of Tampa to Port Charlotte!). A LOT of driving (not paid!). I felt more like a salesperson than a plumber. Maximum dollar amount per call was priority.

When you start they will tell you how busy they are, you will get lots of calls. If you don't generate the average ticket they want your calls will be throttled back until you're essentially waiting for either another techs recall or something that won't get you a commission. The best calls are filtered to their top salesman ( they're more salesman than plumbers) the people who are generally at the top most consistently are cherry picking good calls while they'll send you on the trash calls to clear the board.
