REM Services

As usual Houston flys in trainers to train there employees they were firm but OK then you just spend your weekends going in to take test and more but as usual there is always 1 employee that has to take his title and go over board while others were firm but made sure you learned the other on the other hand  ran his mouth to be hip to new starters personally that part was not necessary just unprofessional. I got my pay upon leaving the hiring boss took care of everything was professional and polite. Could have stayed my choice and mine alone  to move on

A typical day at work was extremely busy. I answered 45 or more call on our busy days, with very not so happy people. We were assisting people with travel information. There were delays with Metra. Pace and CTA. I learned patience working at Rem Services. The management team can always have improvement. And far as culture there was a mix of different nationalities. Furthermore, the hardest part of the day was remaining humble. The most enjoyable part of the day was making sure the customers were satisfied.

Over work you, some of the management do not support you at all. I felt very used most of the time cuz I never had anytime off. They had me work 26 hour shift with no sleep and worked all holidays. They even wanted me to go in the next day after I got married.if you are not friends or family with someone higher up you don't get far. Alot of the staff treat the clients horrible.

Rem Services was a good company to work for. The client, First Transit, that I worked for through  Rem Services was a nightmare to work for. The workload was not balanced between the other workers and I. Most of the overtime duties were left for me to complete because my co-workers were not cooperative. Management wasn't available to enforce employees to complete the tasks, even if it meant staying past 8 hours.

Friendly and caring environment. Management is very in tune with the day to day process and also helpful if something isn't understood.  Hardest part of the job is definitely the work load at times but its not unattainable. Best part is the bonds and friendships you make, which helps work days faster and more enjoyable.

Although I only worked here for a very short time I liked everything about it. This was the first place I've worked where I felt like the company really cared about me and that means a lot. I've never felt that from a company before and I thought it was worth writing a review for. Also, the training is top-notch. They take safety seriously and that means a lot.


What is the best part of working at the company?
Good people to work for. Safety  number 1.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Rude and obnoxious passengers.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Easy and structured. Systematic.

Rem services have taught me a lot of things dealing with payroll and how to be an actual assistant to the head person. The only thing that I disapprove of is that other managers always wanted to do things above Rem Services head.

I wouldn't recommend working at this place. It was a very tiring and stressful job and no matter how much work you put in it was never appreciated. It was also never enough for this job and if you weren't careful they would run you into the ground.

In short if anything happens it's on the operator. The company will distance itself from the operator and does not wanna be liable for anything. The schedule is is horrible if you're new.
