Crown Staffing reviews

- Highly competitive industry. Crown sells itself as a best practices company at competitive prices, but actually offers nothing more than any of their competition. Our sales reps always complained about this. - Each office competes not only with other companies, but also other offices in the Crown organization. Sales territories are very defined. Most offices are made up of two or three people. - Crown management makes it clear that it is a sales organization. New accounts are valued over old accounts. Coordinators simply fill the sales orders and are not valued much beyond that. The annual convention is for the salespeople and managers, for example. - Paid holidays are limited to a handful and other benefits are pathetic. Virtually no promotions. Why was everyone in the office required to wear skirts or suit and tie when we were working on labor jobs? - For sales people, there is little marketing support or advertising. Everything is done via old fashioned dated cold calling methods and that is heavily watched. - Micro-management is the rule not the exception. - Technology is not a priority for the company. Even the smallest competitor to Crown has an advantage here.

No training, no support, no marketing or advertising for the satellite locations, no support from the corporate office, no communication or timely response to issues, low pay for the hours, and responsibility, horrible benefits package, very little PTO, and you are on call 24/7. Management does not get any commission even though they are selling as much if not more than the sales reps. It is very old school, with little social media and a very outdated Applicant Tracking System. This company is very behind the times on almost every level. The say family first right on the signage but they do not care one bit about anyone or their family. The integrity of the company as a whole is not good. There is a lot of gossip and back stabbing from high ranking employees, and we are often asked to lie to applicants and tell them we have jobs that we do not have so we can build our talent base. All in all it was a bad experience and I would not recommend working there.
