Healthcare Services Group reviews

There are times when it is required to work long hours. Benifits are expensive.

This company is a "lean" company that takes over management staff of housekeeping at Extendicare and other assisted living facilities. The way they make it lean is they understaff the account managers and force them to be over-rated janitors. They tell you that you will have comp time yet, expect everything to be up to par. Your staff including yourself are never to go over 40 hours a week. Most of the staff only gets 37.5 full time. When offered a vacation time the company only pays you up to 30 hours if you take off in a given week and the rest of the time is considered unpaid time off. This forces you to juggle and beg employees to burn up vacation days for other reasons and never take a full block of vacation time. I was told in my initial interview that I would be managing a facility. No mention of "training" came up until the second interview, in which I was told I would be at a facility after 90 days of "training" minimum. How much training do you need to push a broom, empty a garbage or scrub a toilet? This company is not the company to work for unless you have been a housekeeper for many years and are looking for a promotion and more responsibility for the same hours you put in already.
