Pros

Good co workers to work with at first Cleaning is relatively easy to get the hang of

Cons

Every trainer trains differently, so there’s no consistency The management doesn’t care at all about their employees, which creates a toxic environment Half the cleaners suck at cleaning so the hospital looks terrible They have a rule where if you borrow money from a non Sodexo employee, it’s considered “soliciting” and you get written up The management plays favorites and also does what they tell their employees not to do Management is lazy and sets a bad example, so it makes the staff follow and makes them lazy as well They claim to have an open door policy, but they never follow up with anything if a concern is brought up, even if brought up multiple times I could go on!

Pros

My direct coworkers and other onsite employees are amazing and some of the nicest and most welcoming people I’ve ever met. The day to day responsibilities are enjoyable to work on most days. Company phone provided for work communications during work hours (you don’t have to take them home with you) Free meals on shifts worked (with restrictions) “Set schedule”

Cons

Work life balance is not great. You hire on for one position or schedule and then end up being required to perform job duties that are outside of your description on top of your daily responsibilities. Wages are really low. Unfair distribution of allotted overtime hours. Benefits are not good either. Insurance is really expensive for not great coverage. Maternity leave is only 6 weeks and only 60% of your pay covered by short term disability (that you pay for out of pocket until 2 years of service)
