Good job to make side money
Cleaning Technician (Current Employee) - Edmonton, AB - 18 March 2022
Indeed featured review
The most useful review selected by IndeedThis is a good job to make side money but as for me it wasn’t enough hours for a full time income. I didn’t get enough shifts but when I did, the pay and tips were good. The job and clients were almost always excellent, the app and accepting jobs was good but the company itself is somewhat disorganized with scheduling and payments. Not the greatest but also is good if you need something because you can make your own schedule.
Pros
Pick when you want to work
Cons
Not enough shifts

Cleaning superhero! )
Cleaner (Former Employee) - Ontario - 3 May 2022
Let's start with the bonus they promised and the hourly pay! Don't believe it! I only did one cleaning for my first week and I didn't even get a bonus for it. The hourly pay is lower than advertised, never received any rating. One time got underpaid" because a customer refused" to pay for proper post-construction cleaning. It seems that the support stuff lack in knowledge of appropriate hours to book for a cleaning and the types available. Threatening messages are sent to remind you of your cleaning job.." If you miss it you will be deducted 50$". Even if you just accept by mistake and want to cancel it right away, they still mention that charges may apply. App has issues.
Pros
none
Cons
more of a scam

The company’s management isn’t professional.
House Cleaner (Current Employee) - Toronto, ON - 7 April 2022
My time working with this company was refreshing in a way. The pros are you get the opportunity to choose your own hours, other than that they could care less about your situation, for ex. Being sick or unable to come in due to an emergency. They deduct $50. I would say their scammers and use workers for their own benefit. Also, their company app had frequent run downs a few time and the staff seem like they’re unsure of what they’re doing. They do not treat their employees with the amount of respect they deserve. Plus they didn’t give me my full pay. Think twice before you work for them. Otherwise I would say this is more like a side job.

All of the “negative”reviews about this company is 100% correct. You have been warned!
Cleaning Technician (Former Employee) - Homer, ON - 18 February 2022
Even if you are desperate for a job, don’t even bother applying to this company. You will regret it! There’s no job interview or training provided, they will never reimburse you for your supplies ,Uber and tips Will never be given to you. Payment for your work is supposed to be Made at the end of the job, but the client could simply choose to not pay if they are not satisfied. I am honestly shocked that a company like this is still around in 2022.
Pros
There are no pros to working for this company, not worth it!
Cons

Totally unorganized
Residential Cleaner (Former Employee) - Ajax, ON - 10 January 2022
They will hire anyone so easy to get a job there. Get all your tips in cash or they will take them and youll never see a cent. They say they cover ubers. They do not. Showed up to jobs and no one was there. Showed up to other jobs that had been cancelled and no one told me. There is no background check and training is a joke. 20 dollars an hour was the only thing that held me there for a bit.
Pros
20 dollars an hour
Cons
Everything else

Terrible company
House Cleaner (Former Employee) - Edmonton, AB - 18 November 2021
Very bad company, bad pay, the management is absolutely terrible. They do not at all compensate for the materials you buy, like they say and are supposed to. They don't give to fcks if your car breaks done and will force you to pay a fee for canceling. They don't pay like they should, they are not good with keeping us up to date, they don't give good descriptions on what materials you do need. Don't ever work here!
Pros
Nothing. Absolutely nothing.
Cons
Everything that they are. Worst company ever.

Unprofessional company you have to beg to be paid
Cleaning Technician (Former Employee) - Ontario - 7 August 2021
Do not work for this company if you expect to be paid accurately and on time. You have to beg for the money you worked for. They charge clients an arm and a leg for services and pay contractors little to nothing. You buy your own supplies. Gas or Kilometers aren't written off and your paid little to nothing for really hard work. When clients add more details to they're cleaning job they want ex. Baseboards, Ceiling fans, Laundry, Wash Dishes they are charged extra for each service but the company keeps that extra money and still pays the tech the same as if it was a regular sweep mop and vacuum. They can charge upwards of $300-$400 fir 4 hours if the client adds on enough things and cleaning techs are only paid $80 out off that $400 when they're the ones doing the hard work. LOL what a joke of a company.
Pros
Flexibility
Cons
They dont pay their contractors

Difficult Place to Work
House Cleaner (Former Employee) - Calgary, AB - 10 January 2021
-there are too many cleaners, it's hard to get orders. You might get one a week or so. It's not enough to provide for yourself - the company sometimes asks you to stay over the allotted time to go over the clean if the customer is not satisfied.- this incentivizes customer to complain and to try to get as much out of you as possible -HR is very difficult to deal with. They are not helpful, blame you, and you're always speaking to a different person by email. There's no way to contact them by phone.
Pros
flexibility
Cons
difficulty getting paid for work

Happy Employee
Human Resources Manager (Current Employee) - Home based - 19 August 2020
I am glad to be working in this company. Having a great supervisor and awesome teammates makes the work environment adoptable. We were more like a family, everyone is listening and understanding everyone out. I do not feel any pressure or stress when working because help and guidance is always there. The salary is not competitive though, but I wish for an increase in the near future as the company grow. Overall, I would still recommend working in this company!
