Davies

I accepted a job at Davies knowing their rating from employees wasn't great and I wouldn't be paid for training but I had no idea how bad it would be.  Davies bought two other companies about three years ago and the onboard training process is a combination of the three.  At the beginning of the training it said: "Bear with us while we combine our training programs".  It's been almost three years??
    I spent hours on subjects I couldn't understand why I was studying then only to be told by my regional director, " don't worry about that, it's not for you".  If we were paid for training I'm sure they would have perfected the training process.
    After three weeks of training I emailed my two regional directors pointing out the broken links, the videos not meant for me, etc.  One director was very supportive and the other made fun of me, suggesting I couldn't handle the job. After receiving his email I decided I didn't want to work for Davies and resigned.      

The Davies Group is a good company to work with. I called to schedule phone interviews with potential candidates and recruited potential candidates to become an insurance agent. I did agent support, and also helped in the day to day activities at the office. The culture is energetic. Management is approachable and likes to help out wherever needed. The hourly pay isn't the best and there are no benefits. So I am looking to increase my income and have benefits. The most enjoyable part of the job, in addition to the management and the culture, is that we make a difference in people's lives by offering our clients a secure financial future and seeing people grow in our business.

First off the training is unpaid, it's a 2 week class. When hired was told they had alot of work. Once I got done with the horrible training I was able to work then there was no work. They say doing commercial is better because it's alot more pay but what they don't tell you is the amount of work it actually is. It's not worth it. Manger was never available. No compensation for gas or if you have to get a hotel. For the amount of work they had for my area it wasn't worth the time. It would be weeks before I'd get work. Just dont waste your time. 

Very low pay. Does not provide company laptop. Training pay is so low if you don't complete part of it you don't get paid. The whole job is a complete mess. You don't actually get paid what you are supposed to get paid on each audit. Nothing I enjoyed its so terrible. Very unprofessional and underpaid company. AVOID THIS JOB AND THE COMPANY AT ALL COSTS!!! You will get underpaid. They lie a lot when it comes to getting paid. 

This role is a complete disaster.  They want you to go to places unannounced to homeowners, take pictures and measure homes.  All training is unpaid, and they act like you have to go through all of the training to be successful, however they put these horrible conditions on you to achieve the role guidelines.  Every email is a group chain and they give you no guidance how to deal with an angry homeowner.  It is a horrible company and its best you stay far clear.

A typical day is half the employees doesn't know how to do their job because they care about seats and hire anyone instead of training and caring about the employees they have. This work environment is the worse I've ever worked in, to be comfortable you have to be a family member and they pick and choose who they help. This company is underpaid and has no organization or structure. 

This job is a joke. They put you through 3 weeks of training and you have watch nothing but videos online and it takes about 6 hours a day. You don’t get paid for the training and watching the videos is tiring. The mock audits were ok. My regional direction never responded in a timely manner. I don’t believe the pay for this job and the work they want you to do is fair. 

This was one of the worse companies I have worked for. 

The group head of marketing and communications does not even know the difference between SEO vs SEM which is shown in the trust of the stakeholders giving such a low marketing budget. 

The day is filled with busy work, while being mirco managed by incaple leader who are all UK based and take vacations like no other. 

Would never recommend this place even for college graduates. 

Unpaid 2 weeks of training 
Rude managers
Dismal pay @ $6 per inspection 
"Traveler" work pays up to $40 per inspection so you know that there is money to pay better they just don't. 
Typical corporate greed, squeezing every drop of compensation from the lowest level of the company.  They have figured out the bare minimum compensation that people will work for.
