Dwellworks

What is the best part of working at the company?
Dwellworks gave me experience in a sector I hadn't worked in before and therefore acted as a springboard to working for another company in a similar role that was much better paid and, in my opinion, had a more ethical work culture.  

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The strong culture of (unpaid) overtime combined with dismissive and diminishing comments from management when I expressed concerns about the workload.  Even though I knew my colleagues also struggled with the workload and some resigned or took longterm sick leave as a result of the pressure, it still made me feel inadequate and adversely impacted my mental health.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Intense with very little time to take a break.

Dwellworks is an excellent company to work for. They make sure to hire genuine, wonderful people and that's reflected in every conversation I've had with others in the company. Management is keen to make you feel included and are often friends as much as they are your superiors. Dwellworks does its best to ensure an excellent work-life balance, providing options to work from home regularly and PTO that can be used for just about anything.

A typical day at work for me involved handling service desk tickets and management of an internal app integral to the functioning of the company.

The most enjoyable aspect of the job was without a doubt the people I worked with. They are all truly wonderful and an absolute pleasure to be around for 8 hours a day.

It is good to work there if your purpose is not to earn money. The pay is much lower than the position should be and even they don't pay you monthly. If you don't complete the whole assessment, you might not get pay even you have spent hours on it. They don't pay the mileage, they don't pay for the long training, they don't give you any bonus or reimbursement. They don't count your travel time so you might need to spend 30 mins to drive there and another 30 mins to drive back just for a 1-2 hours work. (You eventually only get half price of the hour rate because the travel time may equal the working time) They expect you to complete the assessments even you need to work extra hours without pay (And their estimated time often less the the time you have to work.)  If you do need to make a living, just enjoy meeting new people, then this might be a fun job for you.

What is the best part of working at the company?
I love working from home, while still interacting with clients, and not having someone standing behind me telling me what to do at every turn. This is the best job I've ever had! If you're disciplined, good at being organized and are self directed this is the job for you!

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Low real estate inventory and not being able to get your client the perfect new rental property

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Supportive staff willing to help if or when you ask!

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
I work from home and pretty much create and implement my own schedule based on client needs

After several conversations with human resources person it became apparent that
Many if not all their open positions listed online are not actually open positions.
I asked their representative about their policy regarding attracting talent. I was informed
That position openings are often advertised to merely collect available talent information.

I was then told that it may not be a " fair " way for an organization to attract talent.  Merely solicitating talent for fictitious opportunities. 

Although Dwellworks has been awarded as Top Employer in Regional market... their Human Resources Department is inefficient and misleading.

Beware when seeking employment with their organization.

The typical day comes in stages due to getting information, inputting data, locating correct demographic needs and then helping the clients in person.  I learned so much about Visas, Passports, Green Cards, local schools and housing in local areas.  The management was supportive and always there to assist.  Workplace culture was an incentive to learn.  The hardest part of the job was turnaround time for documents.  However, you will find this anywhere.  The most enjoyable part about the job was seeing happiness on the clients faces when the process was finished and they were settled in.

Freedom in scheduling to an extent (driven by transferee arrival). I've learned a lot about the local rental market and municipal laws.  The managers are supportive. I really enjoy helping people relocate to the US! It's incredibly rewarding. The hardest part of this job is how long it takes to get paid!! You can drive 4 hours round trip to take the transferee to property tours and SSA / DMV appointments, but you don't get a single penny until the file is completely closed out, which sometimes can take up to 9 months or more. So you're shelling out time and gas money for all of that time with absolutely no compensation. 

Working with transferee's is wonderful. Program managers can make or break you. Too much power to a program manager and nobody is checking on them. Dwellworks has some shady payment process. Who really checks on the program managers? May want to check out their work habits and ethics. Working with another relocation company and they do not operate the way dwellworks does, very refreshing.
West Coast manager is wonderful. Great to work from home and out on the road with transferees.

You work at home and meet with clients out.  
You can manage your own schedule.
I have learned about the local Orange County Rental Market
I have enjoyed working with helping transferred employees settle in to their new communities
The managers are most always friendly, professional and positive
The hardest part of the job is all the documentation
The most enjoyable part of the job is making the transferee/employee happy with their new home and community, building their confidence and trust in me

Great work life balance
Work from home
Work independently
It's seems time is wasted on irrelevant meetings and repeated online quizzes/training that you are not paid to participate in.
Young eager management which does not tie in well with established consultants. Management lacks understanding of the job of consultants and waste time on unnecessary micro managing of staff rather than focusing on issues that would enable the consultants to be able to do their job more effectively.
