What is the best part of working at the company?
If you find a person there you get along with, it makes work less miserable. If you’re not qualified for a higher up position, as in if you think you’re better than people in a lower position than you when you get promoted, you’ll be a favorite.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
You could do your absolute best, clean every room and make them spotless, they will always find something to complain about. Your 100% will never be good enough. Do not ever expect praise for anything. Your boss will lie to your face, making it seem like they are doing something in favor of you but in reality they are just screwing you over behind your back.
If you think you deserve a raise for putting in hard work, don’t ever expect one to happen. You will be asked or demanded to do more work than you normally do, and you will not be compensated for it. This is all just the tip of the iceberg.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Toxic. Tense. Unhealthy. Uncaring.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Felt like I had a target on my back, always. Every day I came in with the anxiety in the back of my head that some day the contract would be terminated and I will be out of a job. I would try my best every day to motivate myself, telling myself that if I keep pushing myself and overdoing it, eventually I will be told “you did good.”
I would work towards nothing. Wanna save up for a vacation? Want overtime? Want to start saving for something nice for yourself? Want to collect some PTO? Want to enjoy a holiday with pay?

You will not get that here. Never.

HES Facilities in Beloit, Wisconsin, unfortunately, stands out as a challenging workplace environment marred by ineffective management and poor leadership. The manager in charge lacks the necessary competence and skills to effectively steer the team towards success, resulting in significant disarray within the company.

One of the most glaring issues plaguing HES Facilities is its pervasive disorganization. From workflow inefficiencies to communication breakdowns, the company operates in a state of chaos that severely hampers productivity and morale among employees. Projects often lack clear direction, leading to confusion and frustration among team members who struggle to meet objectives amidst the disorder.

Furthermore, the lack of competent leadership exacerbates these problems, as the manager fails to provide adequate guidance or support to address the company's organizational shortcomings. Decisions are made haphazardly, without thoughtful consideration of their impact on the team or the business as a whole. This lack of strategic direction breeds uncertainty and erodes trust in management, further undermining employee motivation and engagement.

Overall, HES Facilities in Beloit, Wisconsin, presents a dismal picture of a workplace characterized by rampant disorganization and inadequate leadership. Unless significant changes are implemented to address these issues, the company is likely to continue struggling to retain talent and achieve its business objectives. And to add "5 days off a year of PTO" is pitiful and greedy.

Terrible Company to work for especially in a school system it's made for 2 people during the day not 1 the principal will make your work list after already having one from your manager rearrange your whole cleaning schedule and add in night shift jobs to make it easier for them and managers will not back you in anything make you suffer for there lazy efforts just to satisfy the wrong This Company never has cleaning supplies correctly on time and they lied about paying full time employees holiday pay etc  and when school out only a few is picked to work during the summer and you will not get paid and employees will not get unployment pay because your job will start again in Aug Terrible company every red flag  and your raised is based off a report card not individual but all together so if you have night crew and they're doing a terrible job there goes your raise ..the person that did ours also gave a B+ it will never be perfect and that screws up  chances of every getting a raise the pay is terrible for the work and with separation notice they will lie   TERRIBLE PLACE TO WORK FOR IN GEORGIA CAN'T WAIT WHEN ABM COMES BACK!

What is the best part of working at the company?
The lady that was my manager was awesome but the company was cheap,many times we had to supply our own cleaning supplies,some of the managers were extremely unprofessional, they assured us we would get a raise and we never got it and also they don't give any holidays not even one day for Christmas or anything

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Not having the supplies I need to do my job but still being held responsible when things aren't done correctly

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The work environment at the school that I worked at was great but none of the management worked at the location with me so that says something. The staff at that particular School and also my other hes coworkers were amazing

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Pretty calm and laid back just as long as you get your job done and make sure that the school is clean and done correctly

What is the best part of working at the company?
My boss. Audrey Holcomb. She's a sweetheart. She's very understanding and makes my underpaid position more rewarding.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The pay. The contract established through Anderson University allows the school to under-pay the employees, as the school itself becomes more demanding and ungrateful.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
This is a great part of working here. The lower level of staff and faculty are very appreciative. It's their superiors that aren't. You are your own boss for the most part. It's a liberal work environment.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Custodian work. Clock in, greet your workmates and staff of the University and start your work. Take breaks when needed but be responsible while doing so. You don't want to be behind in your efforts.

The work itself is labor intensive.  I felt mislead often by management concerning pay and opportunity.  One has to be on the clock working for 8 1/2 hrs to be paid for only 8hrs.  I would not recommend taking a job with this company if you must travel to get there.  At the end of the day, it felt as though they were stealing time from me.  Advancement is dangled like a carrot.  There’s no genuine concern about burning employees out.  I felt regularly manipulated by management.  The benefit of the experience was in the demonstration of dedication to the responsibility of the job and doing the job well through its hardships.  It may not have earned me advancement at HES, but I learned a lot, I receive a lot of job offers and I am offered every job I interview for now.  It was extremely hard work and I don’t regret the experience.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Management,  and company morals are inhumane.  Also , the rate of pay does not support the work load . 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Having management that does not give adequate support, nor are they truthful. I loved my job , however,  the company only cares about their bottom line. Employees and teammates are not taken care of. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Work environment at the schools, however , the business culture is lacking.  

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
A typical day as a site supervisor  included managing disgruntled teammates, due to over worked literally and over paid, to a demanding administration staff , and a company that does not hold up to their contracts with clients.

Overall, my time with HES has been positive. I have gained experience in several fields I may not have, had it not been for the positions I held. I am grateful for it and my time with the company. At times, you can feel overworked and underpaid, as with all jobs. The peak is if you put in hard work and show them what you're worth, they will quickly promote and match your pay to work ethic. However, the pit would be the lack of training in general-specifically, the lack of thorough and timely training (Especially in the supervisor and management roles). Make sure you do your research on positions, take time to ask questions, and consider it fully before accepting an offer. Account types vary depending on the contract, so make sure you know what you're getting yourself into before making a decision. Overall, it's a great company to work for, just be practiced in discernment. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
Keeping busy, made shift go by faster.  Interacting with children.  

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Too many tasks to complete within time frame, with inadequate help.  

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Male chauvinist manager, put priority on paying men more.   Some people more overworked and given more tasks.  No additional help provided on busy days.  

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Clock in via phone, collect trash from all classrooms and take to dumpster, sanitize/clean all desks in classrooms, clean sinks and countertops, sweep, mop, and vacuum all offices and classrooms, clean water fountains, wipe down toilets, sinks, urinals, clean mirrors.  Mop bathroom floors.   Replace paper towels, toilet paper, and soap in all rooms.

To start off, the management is extremely unprofessional and petty. They have very very poor communication especially when things like the handbook change. They mislead you when it comes to attendance and things like grace periods and points. They also have a problem with obvious favoritism. The hours don’t offer the best work life balance. Especially for me having to wake up at 3:30am and not leaving u til after 2:30pm. The pay is okay but you don’t get any type of raise after being there for a year or longer. Not to mention what you are expected to do on a day to day basis. The job is very nasty and stressful. You barely get any time off during the holidays. The managers do not care about you or anything you have going on in your personal life. I highly suggest not applying.
