Staffy Changed How I Approach Work
RPN (Current Employee) - Hamilton, ON - 24 November 2021
Featured review
Staffy selected this as a representative reviewI'm a nurse, and I am using Staffy to pick up temporary gigs. The application process is quick and easy, app/website is easy to use, pay is better than any hospital/ltc/community permanent job. I was accepted for the first gig that I applied for. Staffy worked with me via text to get all the details hammered out, and I was orientating a few days later. I would highly recommend Staffy to all nurses. Take your autonomy back! No more rotating shifts, working every other weekend and every Holiday unless YOU want to!
Pros
Work when you want, competitive rates
Cons
no benefits

Good Work
Rpn (Current Employee) - Toronto, ON - 9 August 2023
Great for picking up shifts. There are a lot of different places to work through, and you always have someone to reach out to, if you need some assistance. Only thing is that you are an independent contractor.

Good Pay but not consistent shifts.
RPN (Current Employee) - Durham, ON - 29 May 2023
Grateful to have worked at Staffy. Process of getting hired was easy and straight forward. Everything is done in app and support is done by texting. They pay good compared to other agency. But having said that, it is a job that you can do to supplement your other job.

The flexibility to pick shifts is appreciated. The pay is complimentary to the position and the work involved. The job offers opportunity to be involved in different work settings. Independent work contracting is valuable to skilled employees.

Will not return your text if it's about you pay
Registered Practical Nurse (RPN) (Former Employee) - Toronto - 29 October 2022
There was an issue with the bank's etransfer service, and my insta pay didn't go through from Staffy. It's almost been 24 hours and no one has addressed my issue. There's always clitches in the app. Their rates are excellent, but what's the point if you can't get paid. There's no live representative. You have to wait until their good and ready to pay you. Don't leave your day job.

I will not recommend.
Registered Practical Nurse (Current Employee) - Toronto, ON - 16 August 2022
I will not recommend this place to anyone. They pay well, but you will have may be 1 shift every two weeks. You cannot rely o this company to make long term plans.

Can't get paid
Nurse (Former Employee) - Hamilton, ON - 2 December 2021
I have completed a few shifts through staffy, at first I thought it was great! Great pay whenever you can pick up shifts.. until they ignore your texts and worse yet I couldn't get paid! They owe me a lot of money and can't even get a reply, if you can't even personally communicate with someone about your pay, I wouldn't bother putting the time in.

19 April 2022Hi there, we aren't aware of anyone who hasn't been paid. This is typically caused by inaccurate addresses entered into the system, or a result of people moving while their payment card is in transit. Please contact info@staffy.com if you're still having issues.
Nice, but depends on the company you are sent to.
Cook/Prep (Former Employee) - Toronto, ON - 5 November 2021
Since this is an employment agency, the working environment and atmosphere can be very different place to place. It is not always easy to adapt to each place (restaurant) you are sent to, some make it easier for you, others not at all and you struggle all day long. You then choose to return or not. Out of the 40 places were I've been sent, I've blacklisted only 4, so overall positive experience.
Pros
I met amazing places and people
Cons
Some people are not very helpful

I consider Staffy environment very productive as it is tailored to fit a job need. It also put a dent in the gap for both workers and employees alike.

What I like there, is working when you want because is a platform where you pick your own schedule and you get paid fairly. May be depending on company, sometimes they offer free foods.
