Pros

You get a giftcard for every x amount of compliments each month and the gift cards changed. You also get monthly bonuses if you stay on top of your time while cleaning.

Cons

Management hardly communicated with our boss so she wouldn't know anything we told management until we told her ourselves. Management also hardly communicated with each other to problem solve. Hardly understanding of situations and would give ridiculous solutions. Training only covers so much and they expect you to remember everything within a week. You have to actually learn more from whoever they assign to "finish" training you. They don't teach you how to handle rude customers or give you any guidance, you have to learn for yourself. The biggest con is they tell you that you don't have to deal with certain things but you end up having to deal with them anyways. We're not supposed to clean anything insect infested and they had me clean a kitchen where there were ants all over the counter. They also had another team clean a roach infested house. There are way more but this is turning into an essay.

Pros

When the customers tipped you.

Cons

Long hours, horrible mean coworkers. Lots of gossip. If you value yourself and your self worth do not work here. The girl who trained me my first day she expected me to know everything and be as fast as her. She would talk about me behind my back to the other girl we were teamed up with. The other girl was nice and understanding and she was part of the reason I didn’t quit after day one. This trainer girl was horrible! She ruined my self confidence and made me feel stupid. She got mad when I worked tomorrow only slow and got mad when I was too fasts. I have watched 3 new employees come and go and all the people that have been there for years treated them horribly and talked about them behind their back. I only stayed for as long as I did because of the job market being bad right now. This had to be the worst job I’ve had in my life! Also the manager will tell you the hours are 8am to 4pm with occupational 7pm off times but everyday we went over 4 pm. I had no life and my body hurt so bad. Please find another job because this one isn’t good!
