PeopleReady

I’ve been with the company as a temp worker for many years. I’ve been cursed at, yelled at, bullied etc. I’ve stayed as a temp worker to get extra cash. JobStack constantly doesn’t let me log in, or won’t let me see jobs. For over a week now, almost 2 weeks, the app has been down. Calling the office is no help because “we'll let you know if there’s work“ but they haven’t been. I’ve heard rumors that the company hasn’t been paying or had an issue with the app developers/software, and that the app won’t be back up any time soon because of that. They claim they have no idea why the app is down but they know they do. This is costing us temp workers money. Very upset and sad.

Wouldn't it be nice to not worry about $? You people need to understand this is a terrible service. Your local offices normally have terrible employees. PeopleReady is a ** company altogether. The app never works. Does all kinds of problems. For the Love of god, I encourage all of you please get a normal regular job. Trust me on this.

I have worked for some time with Peopleready and truly enjoy working throughout the local community in various capacities. I have unfortunately been treated abominably by the staff of its office who have made little effort to disguise their unpleasantry and in fact have behaved in ways that have only added to my need to call their office thereby seemingly exasperating their unpleasantries. By all appearances the culture that is normal for this office is contempt where it might be meted out which as it happens is towards those in need of assistance. I have called and texted their location as of today to request that I be removed from their worker database as have I contacted their HR for the same. The Peopleready Anchorage location is I’m sorry to say a flagrant example of a nasty culture run amuck. There can be no excuse under any circumstances.

The staff at the 2501 3rd. Ave. So location is unfit to work there! They NEVER inform YOU that a JOB has been CANCELLED or delayed and allow you to use your precious ⛽ to get there! They NEED a whole new crew of professional workers!!!

Madison Wi. People ready branch is horrible. They do not have good people skills, office staff gives false information to associates, they will refuse to answer the phone for associates. They advertise for daily pay exceptions of weekends and holidays, however that is not the case. I've encountered numerous other associates that the treatment they receive from and Individual at that location is horrendous. Speaking with branch manager doesn't get you very far either. They are not understanding of people with sick children. At this branch specifically there is NO TEAM. It's office against associates. Without the associates there isn't an office. Remember that.

I would not recommend anyone to work with PeopleReady. The level of professionalism is little to none. I have never felt so low when speaking with the staff here. In particular, two ladies by the name of Gwen and Ty. Ty refused to provide her name. Staying, "It's just Ty!" Their tone when speaking with you at anytime is demeaning and I believe Gwen is the actual office manager and Ty is personnel. They come off with no care in the world for any of the laborers. Without the laborers, PeopleReady will not thrive. I understand that the staff deals with many facets of personalities, but you should maintain a level of professionalism knowing that most people who comes to PeopleReady is in need greatly. Show some sort of empathy.

I worked 2 days and only got paid for 1 day almost a week later so they’re already lying about getting paid within 24-48 hours. Almost 2 weeks later I’ve still not been paid for the second day I worked. I called the local office and was rudely told “we paid you already.” However my bank account which I pay very close attention to only shows 1 deposit from them. When I called again I was told “it’s not our problem that we didn’t pay you, it’s you’re bank.” But wait the first day I worked my bank accepted their direct deposit, but not the second day?? Makes zero sense. PeopleReady treats people like they're idiots and outright refuse to help them. That’s how they make money, by stealing it from employees. If you don’t believe me look it up and you’ll find several lawsuits against TrueBlue/People Ready all over the country for not paying or paying late. They are scammers that take advantage of people.

On their website it says to have someone verify your I9 documents to begin to look for work. After weeks of it not working and no response to my emails I call in and are told I have to come in with my documents. I ask what is rhe purpose of having a friend do it. The lady says she doesn't know what im talking about she didn't make the website. COMPLETE waste of time.

I have provided nothing but excellent service through People Ready. In one job, I was fired by the HR lady for supposedly walking off the job early and repeatedly showing late for work. I had been keeping the schedule in the company computer, and been clocked out by a supervisor who called in my hours the day before. I then went out on a job; again provided excellent service. I was asked by a supervisor to find out where some co-workers were and did so. She was unhappy with the results and talked with them directly. One then threw me under the bus, and I was walked off the job by a manager from another department who heard the story this person told. My site supervisors didn't even tell People Ready I was off the job, as they were so mortified by this. I had to inform People Ready myself why I was not continuing the ticket.

I worked for the York PA branch of PeopleReady on 12/29/20. They have a policy to pay within 24 hours. Not so with this branch. Five days later and I still haven't received my pay. I have tried contacting this office numerous times by phone/email/social media and no response.
