Buildingstars

After three days of training where you learn nothing about what the company actually does you put on the floor take make calls. Your calling businesses that have been called weekly and monthly for years and not interested in this company, or your calling business that had a horrible experience with Buildingstars trying to get their business back. You listen to a lot of voice-mails and get hung up on majority of the day. Management has no idea what they are doing they just tell you in the weekly telemarketer meeting you need to make appts so you can make money and they will make money. Pretty hard to make an appt when 130 out of 180 calls are no answer or disconnected numbers. I worked here for 2 months then in the middle of my shift while working I was logged out and could not log back in. Manager called me to say I was let go and that he forgot to call and warn this may happen last week so that I could possibly improve my performance. I asked if there was any training or coaching to keep my job he said no I have been let go and that is that. I've worked in sales a long time have always done great and this job was a total joke. 

This company gives the room and opportunity to grow faster than any I've worked for thus far.  No, it does not insulate those who choose to consistently do less than the bare minimum; I'm not sure I'd like to work for a company that does.  I've been able to customize my career trajectory based upon my strengths and goals; it's not just a cookie-cutter path to the top.  

While the culture is fast-paced and challenging, the office has more of a relaxed atmosphere where I don't feel the rigidity of politics and judgment. There are perks like a brand-new company car, iPad, etc., but the main thing that I've enjoyed about this company is the openness of upper management to listen to new ideas and focus on growth.  Great company for those who want to work hard and grow their career, I highly recommend!

To be honest , this is not the kind of job for someone looking to pay bills or feed your family.  I'm gonna be transparent because that's the only way for me to be.  If you do not set appts. for this company , you are out the door.  It's not a hard job to do , it's their leads that they provide you with that are basically , no good.   Training is only a few hours and they expect for you to hit the floor running !!  The coaching meetings are degrading and they also use scare tactics which would put a person in an uncomfortable position.  The only good thing about this job is they don't micro manage you , that's it.  If you don't get two appointments your first week , you are let go , no exceptions.  If you make your second week , you have to get 3 appts , if not , your let go.  This is not job stability because it's all about production.  Good Luck with the leads they provide , I actually think they give you bad leads so they can let you go.  This is a job with a HUGE turnover rate.   I would really think twice about working here.  Good Luck !




Everything I learned about Buildingstars prior to starting, that I thought was part of their "sale" during recruitment, turned out to be 100% true and even understated.  This company truly cares.  About employees, customers, and the communities they serve.  I feel appreciated, empowered, supported and motivated to do my best.  And I am rewarded for my success.  It's a truly entrepreneurial environment.  

While it's not easy - the work is rewarding, engaging and exciting.  The company is growing and has a great foundation of knowledge, best practices, and a salt of the earth soul that sits at its core.  

I will retire from this company.  No question.  If anyone wants a place where their hard work, grit and positive attitude will be rewarded without the high intensity pressure of some other organizations - this is for you.  If you want a place to cruise or just get paid to show up - then look elsewhere.  

A typical day would be me coming into the office, planning my day, and printing out any necessary paperwork. I was a field manager, so shortly after I would leave the office and spend a majority of my day out. I met with customers measuring facilities, determining expectations, and presenting proposals. I learned a lot about bidding, measuring, different type of floors, cleaning materials, and salesmanship. I worked directly for the President of the company, so there was a lot of freedom to come and go and make my own decisions. There was only one other person in the office, a customer service manager. The hardest part of the job was when new customers were dissatisfied early on. It was very nerve racking to see a customer slip away after so much effort was put into securing the sale. The most enjoyable part of the job was measuring and putting together the bids and proposals. I loved this job it was the happiest I have been in my career.

There’s no such thing as a perfect company, but this company is as close to perfect as it can get: Amazing business model, great compensation plans, supportive & well-informed Customer service departments, with dedicated and highly-trained janitorial technicians. On top of which are all overseen by genuinely caring management who never cease to always be on the look out for the best interests of their employees. Buildingstars is an incredible place to work, with high regards to its service integrity. I absolutely recommend their distinguished cleaning services above the rest — And if you’re looking for a company that you’d be proud to work for, and is substantial with upholding their core values, Buildingstars is IT.

Cold calling isn't a problem and they are really good about working with you when you need off for certain things. I do think they favor certain reps though, especially the senior reps. They are allowed to call different territories at a time when others are only allowed one territory. Basically if you were there longer, you get the better leads. Sometimes you will be digging at the bottom of the barrel, while other reps are getting 5 appts a day. Not very fair. Some things can definitely be improved overall. They will say you're like family but you feel like it's always a competition with co workers. The pay is good and the management is good. Just alot could use improving. 

I worked for this company, and everything started off okay. Best CEO. Then I experienced first hand what goes on behind the scenes. This is a sales job, so it's a number game. When I got hired, I asked them let me know if I was falling short or needed to pick things up. Give me warning if anything was wrong. I have a family to feed. Anyway, I made about 135 calls per shift out bound/cold call to send sales reps to do a bid. They weren't closing and cherry picking and their numbers fell short and lost my job. They pretended to be my friends, and just stabbed me in the back with no warning. The inside sales floor was full of deceit. I regret working here, and it put me in a very bad spot in my life.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The people and the environment. 


What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Not able to make any appointments while needing to meet your numbers

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Relaxed, friendly, they don't micromanage as long as your meeting your goal each month 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Making over 135+ calls everyday and having your meetings with the entire group 1 or 2 times a week as well as having your territory sales meeting 1 time a week to go over your appointments and how the OS Rep did with your appointments

You can work here as a inside sales representative, just don't take the position that seriously because they won't. I've never seen such a high turnover rate in a call center in my 15 years working in various industries and positions and company sizes. Do they want expand or just keep a contained group of favorites? Otherwise my experience was fun and supportive. I laughed a lot but honestly, and this is the first time I've stated this in my career about an opportunity, I just really didn't learn much.
