Jan Pro

The job consists of a thorough cleaning of the building that Jan-Pro assigns the employee to do. Walk in turning off all alarms. Turning on all lights. Typical materials consists of rags, bleach, mop, trash can liners. You have to walk through all rooms in the building and replace all used trash liners. Wipe and dust off debris from desk and very circulated areas eliminating germs and bacteria. I learned that the employee has to be neat with cleaning supplies. Also I learned that i need to work quickly and efficiently to get the job done and satisfying the customer. The hardest part is keeping a consistent clean environment for customers because I have to check in the nooks and crannies for dust and make sure that no trash is left and that every desk in the building is maintained properly. The most enjoyable part of the job is coming in at whatever time you want after the closing time for the building, after the workers of the building leave. At times it is flexible but very time consuming.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Nice family atmosphere. Caring attitude from not just the regional owners but franchise owners as well. Team work is very important.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Very little, you must be a problem solver but no more than any other consultant position. The regional owners do assist in all aspects if needed.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Family atmosphere very caring. They worked with me thru a very serious medical issue and never pressured me .

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
8am meeting. Then off to check on my clients and solve any issues that may arise. Some after hour work with new franchise owners or to help with larger projects  very seldom. Usually home @5pm

No learning curve for each site given.
 No time to discover the clients main needs concerning the cleaning of their establishment.
Very meticulous..and detail oriented. 
You can lose clients very fast and your pay drops quickly. 
Pay is Once a month. 
It is a franchise so you work for who ever bought a piece of the franchise.
Lack in traditional job structure too much work for one person at a time for bigger sites and smaller sites are too far in distance costing travel funds yo pay for out of pocket.
 In my opinion you can only do this job if you buy a piece of the franchise which ranges $1500-7000 down.

Responsible for all new franchise sales and all cleaning contract sales.  Hours were split between recruiting, selling and training new franchise owners, and looking for cleaning contracts to provide to the franchisees.  Model was set up to benefit the master franchise owner and it was easy to have a franchisee lose thier investment.  Had significant success in selling new franchises worth thousands to tens of thousands of dollars.  Was also directly responsible for approximately $5,000+ in new account revenue on a monthly basis.

Night job. Started out learning the proper procedures on how to clean and what to clean in each building. As the months went by, I was moved to a management position due to the amount of new business I was able to bring in. Afterwards, I learned to delegate teams and schedules for the newer buildings while maintaining previous accounts. My co-workers' were just as hard-working as myself and the other managers. The hardest part of this job if I can even comment on one, was the cleaning. The most enjoyable would be the   finished product and knowing you had everything to do with it.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Phone calls, filing, Assisting internal and external customers. Ordering supplies.

A typical day for me was 5-12 hrs of hard but very productive work and travelling from county to county which added extra time. I learned what it was like to be a manager of inventory, personel, marketing, accounting and training. The most challenging thing about what i did was when i would find out afterward what an employee did not do and had to make corrections but growing from the experiences were the most fulfilling part of ownership.

This particular location claims to be all about family 
The owner brings in people. He gets what he wants and pushes people with such micromanaging stress. He all about his pockets and doesn’t care about the employees or customers. 
No one stays more than a few months.
He is very difficult to work for.
HORRIBLE MANAGEMENT!
Other locations are probably great! I never recommend someone working the Birmingham location. Turn over happens with no notice and no bonuses or commmisions as promised!

Great owner.  Always bright atmosphere fun people. Employees are always treated with respect.

Nothing was stressful at this company. Relaxed place
