-Extremely laborious (lots of heavy lifting (mattresses, couches, etc), a lot of time on all fours, etc)
-Extremely long hours (shifts/jobs were typically 10-15 hrs each)
-On call 24/7 which can/is stressful as your life basically revolves around waiting for the call
-Company makes $250 profit off of your labor while you only make $20 which is basically nothing if you’re living alone, with kids, in an expensive area, etc. Company makes A LOT of profit (overcharges by a WIDE margin compared to similar companies) & yet we still aren’t paid a decent amount.
-HQ people make commission off of your own labor/the jobs you sign when you do ALL the work (all they do is take the call & finish paperwork, they never go do the actual job)
-Company takes advantage of customers who don’t know any better & add on unnecessary things (like removing flooring when you absolutely don’t need to) just to make more money & it makes your time during the job significantly more tedious & difficult
-Pay raises really don’t exist. Worked there for over a year & a half & didn’t get a pay raise. Instead of one, my crew got gift cards to a store that didn’t even exist in my state & when we told HQ, they didn’t bother to fix it.
-They don’t do internal promotions, they hire externally for higher management positions when people within the company with more experience/knowledge would fit perfectly in the position
