What a poor excuse for a job. They tell people that are applying that they will be paid a certain amount but that is not even guaranteed you have to check and make sure that they will even pay you for your first check on time. Due to the overhaul of changes made in the month of March there is a 101% chance you will be trained by someone who has only been there for a week. The site leader holds personal grudges and if they are annoyed with you or simply don’t feel like it they will not contact you back, period. When I started in January we had a good group of hard-working individuals as leads and supervisors on the Sunday through Wednesday shift at nights. At the end of February they removed everyone except me and a few others and out of those few they were related to the site leader. So in other words they fired hard-working people and hired family members or promoted individuals based on favoritism. No matter how hard you work with this company you will not get ahead unless you sell your soul. If you have experience in cleaning I definitely do not recommend you work here because you will be told how to do your job when you are clearly more experienced than the ones telling you how to do said job. The communication between employee and corporate/site leader is absolutely horrible. You won’t find out about a schedule change until the day of said change which I find inconsiderate and a total inconvenience because I have 3 kids. If you  read this I recommend  you take my advice, this is NOT an exaggeration. 

My experience was short and swift. I appreciate the person that trained me and the person who would occasionally check on me but this job was extremely cliquey, nobody seemed like they wanted to work or genuinely liked the job but didn’t care enough to leave. It was depressing honestly. The people I mentioned above that were genuine definitely need raises of some sort. Management always had an attitude and I was expected to overwork away while everyone played around especially on weekends. While I was getting fussed out and walking into rooms of management talking mess, majority of everyone played or slacked off. Not a good experience and I lasted less than a month. While other shifts had their “shift” together, the shift I was on did not. I was expected to do double the work as anyone else and was constantly getting nitpicked on for the most minuscule things. Everyone wanted to play and only few wanted to work. I would always hear things about the shift I was on being bad now I finally understand. Underpaid, unorganized and under appreciated. 10/10 don’t recommend. I was also told of being paid $14 the day of the interview but didn’t qualify once I got the job. It’s giving I was lied to.

The Managers and the supervisors we like to work are liars, they arrive in the mornings, punch the entrance, give the worker guidance on what they have to do and between them they go shopping or to a salon, and return at the time of departure, And if the manager was in the group, as she always was, then don't worry, she arranges your departure directly in the system in the morning, and the workers, as they already know their boss on the day shift, then party for everyone Ah, very important, that the night shift suffers cleaning the entire building, so that in the morning they can tell the IH Services visit to arrive, look how nice and clean we have everything,
And the visit of the boss eats the lie and also that makes his work easier, and that is another that adds to the party of going out to eat and shopping there, oh he goes to a hotel with one of them. They have dismissed me from the smallest boss to the largest, because that great one is not accused of the abuses that are committed with his workers.

I have been with the company a little over 3yrs and my experience has not been bad at all.  Yes there have been times where there were Administrative issues...but as far as my direct position and the supervisory/management staff I've had to deal with there were no problems for me.....Yes depending on your assigned site there is a difference in pay and true they dont like to allow overtime....i still never had a problem getting 40hrs...I earn vacation time...I came in the door making decent money and I still make good money....I am sorry that there are so many who have had bad experiences with the company but that is not my experience.  Dont get me wrong there are a few things that can be done better company wide such as raising employee moral and definitely increasing the wages of non management employees....bottom line im good with where im at and the management I have to deal with.....im even good with the sites I am assigned to....

Janitorial work is a job.  A nasty job where you are rarely appreciated, but always in demand.  The pay is minimum wage and unless you climb the ladder, that's where it stays and the ladder is usually already taken up for what very little advancement there is.  Plus the pay doesn't quite go up in proportion to the extra responsibilities and stress that go with advancement.  Other than that, the pace is usually slow if you end up on a third shift.  Still there is no glory to be found wiping up the mess made by others and it's hard to maintain self esteem when you know the people missing the toilet are getting paid WAY more than you were to make that mess.  Considering the nastiness, having a strong stomach and an even stronger immune system is a must or the next mess might be your own.  Granted this merely my own experience in one facility and it might be different at another location.  Still, I wouldn't recommend this unless you are desperate for a paycheck til you find that elusive "something better".

What is the best part of working at the company?
Sadly not much. This company lies about the benefits offered to employees as well as the pay. The hourly rate is awful compared to the extreme work conditions. None of this is discussed at your interview and you are lead to believe the job is simple cleaning. You will be exposed via skin contact and inhaling of harsh chemicals and dust. Get all the details...

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Communication and Drama. Management is never on the same page. It's something different everyday. The office people talk bad about each other with the employees. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The culture of the company is never discussed. What is that?  The work environment is stressful due to lack of 
dedication, appreciation and respect across the board. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Just need to get the day over with.

I was placed into a role of which I didn't want from the get go. I am not management material. I was placed at a location that was already struggling, meaning short staffed. I was at this location for a year. During this time we continued to be short staffed, and this location is open 24/7. The only time workers are not there is during the times that maintenance is doing their work, overnight. There is no shut down time. During this time I was very sick, and the dm knew about it, but didn't send any kind of help. Including myself, there was one other person working, and was collecting a lot of ot every week, and getting worn down in the process. We could not meet the expectations of the client due to no help. Including myself, there was one other full time person, and one person who worked three days a week, no other availability. There is no way we could have been successful there. Poor upper management.

What is the best part of working at the company?
I made a few friends. The overnight shift was great. Management now that's a whole different story.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The management, you never knew who to trust. Always back stabbing,setting people up to be fired. Very toxic work inviorment. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very toxic,alot of gossiping, speaking negatively about employees.  It took me about 6 months to shake off the negative and horrible way that job environment made me feel,I was a emotional wreck.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
As long as you mind your business and stay busy to keep Away from the negativity you're day would be fine. If you are not liked by management your day would be awful, make you do so much,work you to the bone. Testing you to see what you will take,how far they could push you till you finally snap.

I would rather eat glass than to work for this company again. Because of upper management and how the employees are treated by them, I saw my site lose a tremendous amount of good employees. My shift in particular I had no issues with, I loved the majority of the people I worked with from supervisor all the way down. It’s when our big shift in management came through that it went down hill. I figured it was because no one likes change, but it’s been over a month and a half and it’s still garbage. I would never recommend someone to work for this company unless they hated themselves. 
Upper management is biased, EXTREMELY, and very two faced. If I didn’t work with two of my friends or the wonderful work grandma’s I had I would’ve quit within the first month. 
Do not work for them unless it is an absolute necessity. They will hire any and everyone that applies and passes the tests needed, which caused many many problems within. 

I've been with this company since July of 2018. But I had previous experience before I worked for this company. When I first started it was great. I was promoted to lead, then as a supervisor, and few years became an admin/recruiter. I really liked the company. Last year in June or July I became a site leader. But as of Jan 2023, of this year I was demoted as a site leader due to reductions, so they say. The way they demoted me was very unprofessional.  I'm not the only person they did this too.  This company says they are all about there is room to grow. But I honestly feel like I took 100 steps back. Honestly The only positive thing I can say about the company is they are always hiring & are the employees that I worked with. Build friendships inside and outside of work. Other than that, I have nothing else to say.
