Interstate – A Premier Facility Services Provider

Not a bad company to work for. All companies have pros and cons. As management with busy accounts the work and home life balance could be better. Most regular employees don’t have to worry about those issues. I have an amazing team of employees and it’s the workers that drive me to perform better. The work environment is rather pleasant with little drama. Occasionally a difficult client or two but for the most part an all around peaceful place to work internally. We strive to provide the best work environment possible. Typically flexible with shift times etc. I’ve personally been with the company for 6 going on 7 years. If it was a bad place to work for, I would not be here currently. I know many employees that have worked for Interstate for numerous years.

I like this job. It's nothing fancy, just cleaning toilets, but it is easy and simple and a decent paying job for what it is. I've had no problems with management, and in fact they were helpful when I had to take a few days off for a honeymoon. I work the food stamps office, DMV, and state troopers office, All the employees are very polite and civil there that I work around, especially all the DMV ladies. All together I have an extremely flexible schedule when I need it to be, nice people, and decent pay.  A big thank you to interstate, I hope to keep working for them another year untill I can get my certification finished for a better career job. 

Not a great place to work.
Pay stinks. The only benefit you get is health insurance and you pay a fortune for it. 
I worked at inside sales. The owner runs sales and his only sales plan is "Get big ones!" Every day he would say "Did you get one yet?" Get a clue man.
The owner/president is clueless. He doesn't even understand the basics of business. Everybody has to do it for him. He just runs around the office bugging people.
They spend a fortune making the office look gorgeous but won't spend a penny on their employees. Enjoy your $250 Christmas bonus because that's as good as it gets. Oh, and there is the holiday dinner at the country club the owner belongs to.

A typical day of work was merely just going from room to room cleaning and maintaining doctor's offices. The work flow was relaxed but physically demanding at certain points in the work day. 

The management was awful for the most part because of negligence and ignorance. Some things were done in a very unprofessional way I wouldn't approve of.

The hardest part of the job was all the heavy lifting/pushing of equipment and garbage. I was one of the few males working there at the time, so most of the heavy work was pushed onto me.

Not much of the job itself was likeable, but it was nice at times because you work in your own space.

Work-life balance
Work-life balance at Interstate Building Maintenance is smooth but disfuctional and isn't well manage correctly and there's no team work and never enough employees.

Pay & benefits
My pay and benefits at Interstate Building Maintenance are good but wasnt worth working for.

Job security and advancement
In terms of job security at Interstate Building Maintenance, I think was horrible and the managers didn't care about there employees you never hear them say thank you or even say I appreciate there staff had dry attitudes didn't see if there staff wanted help or even try to look out as a team player.

With this company I was trained how to successfully hire personal as well as train them I was given the opportunity to advance quickly into HR and and as well as had on the job training with payroll and accounts receivable,  management was great. The hardest part was having to terminate employees the most enjoyable was having interactions with costumers .and working with amazing educational Co workers  a typical day was answering email mails ,phones and keeping track of payroll budget.  Working with corporate and helping the overall front office duties.

Site supervisors are expected to do three individual supervisors duties, and some departments such as human resources, duties involved hiring, pre-employment paperwork, payroll, background check. Trying to supervise, hire, maintain, build client relationships,and not to mention cleaning multiple sites, sometimes by yourself because the new crew of 10 you spent all week hiring quit in a single night, and the VP of the Pittsburgh region, Chris, states: "Get it done". Not support, no structure, no one to call in for backup because I, the supervisor, am supposed to "get it done", thanks guys!

The issues here are with management, hostile work environments, not allowing vacation time or use thereof, I worked 7days a week with no overtime or bonus, bonuses that were originally offered and given as a reward for exceptional performance were taken away without notice, will not address any issues or investigate any claims that you have of unfair work conditions, payroll issues, people not being paid for hours worked - I could go on for days about all of the issues but I am so glad I am no longer there.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The people I worked with at First Energy.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The constant punishment for things I didn’t do. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The work environment was chaotic and stressful. We barely had supplies to do our jobs and our supervision could do whatever they wanted to us without repercussions because the HR department always sides management no matter what they do. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Wrapped up in one word, stress.

I have been with the company for over 2 years and am happy to work here. There is always a Challenge that keeps you on your tip toes and I enjoy that. There is always someone there offering help. A lot of employees do not understand there is help available and let small issues become big problems. Communication is key and use Chain of command in order to succeed. The company is very fast growing and I can see it growing even faster.
