Window Genie

Great people that work here, manager selfish and inconsiderate, not concerned at all for the health of the employees or balancing work/life. Was told rarely do we have 5 o’clock days to find out everyday we work till 5 o’clock or later. Equipment was missing or broken and sub par to say the least, but employer still expected employees to push thru and find any missing any equipment needed in the van. Safety is not a priority at all and your health doesn’t matter to him any injury is told that it is “not that bad”. Estimates are far underbid lots of the time once showing up to the job their most likely involves extra work youre not told about, commission is his way of paying employees less, he would rather be understaffed then efficient and work employees to their breaking point. 

I enjoyed my time at Window Genie overall as it was a job where I got to move around the whole day (personally, being active in a job is the type of work I enjoy). The management was good, and my employer was very good to me. Often times, however, I would finish work early, and would have to move on to work sites before their scheduled times. I would regularly come home early, as a result, and wouldn't get my full work day in. I felt like this type of work should in some way have been rewarded, but it never was. The pay was okay, although it could have been better. Overall, I enjoyed my time there. Little improvements in certain areas and being noticed by my employer could have made it better, however.

Window Genie is a company that people buy into and brand in their own way, so essentially they are owners of their own franchise of Window Genie, but do not own the company as a whole. That being said, my "owner" was absolutely terrible. He was completely unorthodox, paid each employee depending on how good they were at the job, and completely unorganized. There were no defined work hours, we worked different times every day and wouldn't leave until we had finished all the work for that given day, which could take us up to 8 sometimes 9 PM when you couldn't see a thing outside. This was my personal experience with Window Genie, but I understand that each franchise is run differently, so apply at your own expense.

The job description is extremely misleading. Unsafe work environments and if OSHA found out, this place would be shut down. Expect very little pay for everyday high risk work. States it’s year around but what it doesn’t say is there are peak seasons and out of peak season you might make $450 every TWO WEEKS! Also states very little weekend work but in peek season you are required to work EVERY Saturday and you MIGHT make $600 a week working 6 days a week for over 50 hours. Management is very rude. Just google search the company reviews from customers and see how they respond to the customers that give poor ratings and you’ll see the kind of person you’ll be dealing with.

The only person whose works with you is your boss  and he makes everything seem cool when you first start working with him but then after a week or so he expects you to do everything while he sits back and watches. He would leave sometimes and won’t come back for like 40-45 mins. No matter how many hours you worked, they paid you the same. Completely unorganized. I would work sometimes 30-35 hours a week some weeks and would get paid as if I was working 20 hours a week. Unprofessional place to work

I worked here for 3 years. I took a 1 and a half month paid family medical leave for my newborn. He posted my position 1 day after my child’s birth. Replaced me before my leave was up. The owner has 0 compassion. Another employee broke his ankle from falling off roof. He called him “dumb” and got mad he couldn’t return to work in 6 months. The owner is all about him and his business. You can work here as a job, never career worthy. No room for financial gain. Your better off being paid minimum wage or looking elsewhere.  

We work in the nicest part of town. Most of the time have the nicest clients. We should get tipped a lot more than we do but you cant always complain. Its so nice to be out in the California sun and introducing yourself to the city of San Diego in their own homes. Its nice if you are social and do hard work. Its long hours and not enough company cars so you end up getting screwed over in oil changes and car maintenance. No over time really sucks.

I would consider not to apply to this company. A very eager management that wants things done with consequences of having alleged comebacks of work from clients.  That said, they will give you big jobs to do with short timeframes with the likelihood of rushing and having accusations of completing the job. That includes redoing the job at a later date. They offer extended times of work with no OT. This was only of two weeks of working here and everybody has left this company. This place doesn’t need rebuilding. I guess doing the right thing is bad?

Poor training and vetting of new workers leads to more work for seasoned technicians. Too much work for too little employees. Managers will ALWAYS side with a customer even after debunking the customers "proof". Doesn't matter how professional you are all it takes is one lie from a customer to end your employment even if it's right before the holidays. Put into dangerous positions multiple times and after voicing the dangers told to figure it out. Work orders missing key context or notes or no notes at all. Horrible place and people to work for.

Too much favoritism, and boss refuses to fire poor workers, instead they just don’t get scheduled hours for weeks on end. Flaunts safety regulations. I had to work for two months with a lopsided ladder despite telling management repeatedly. My last paycheck was 50 hours for two weeks. Only enough work in the summer. Was told there was a commission pay structure and I’d be making 50k+ a year, those were both blatant lies. Crew lead refused to train me in certain areas despite being told by management repeatedly.
