Below minimum wage Consistent wage theft
I had such high hopes for this company Essentially Working Solutions is a platform which works as an intermediary between the independent contractor You and the client company i e Turbo Tax A place for Mom etc The independent contractor signs a contract with working solutions which outlines policies pay attendance etc to be executed by you and working solutions Issue WORKING SOLUTIONS DOES NOT ADHERE TO THEIR PORTION OF THE CONTRACT REGARDING PAY On SEVERAL occasions many hundreds of contractors have complained about missing pay resource agent behavior and made-up contract stipulations Usually regarding pay after agents notice non-payment for hours worked None of these issues have ultimately resolved instead the company sends a placeholder to gaslight all of the complaining contractors i e I got my money if the 150 of you haven t received your pay it s likely a user error Follow up with a dispute We even had the VP of Programs pop into a chat to interject on pay issues the only problem is her response had NOTHING to do with missing pay The contractors are not in error with their complaints they are being robbed of time and money The accounting team does not adhere to the pay dispute guarantee So essentially you end up being paid 05 min for the time you ve worked instead of the guaranteed 0 25-0 30 min Working solutions holds that this issue varies depending on the client That is not the truth Ultimately Working Solutions is in charge of remitting payments to its contractors and has had several issues with this across client programs The work environment is horrible and full of bad-mannered passive-aggressive resource agents Resource agents are level 1 help agents that are paid about 0 01 cent more per minute than regular agents to help new agents with questions during calls As independent contractors Agents everyone is their own boss However that doesn t stop the resource agents from barking orders at the agents that ask for help in the help room chats being downright rude at every turn and signing agents off of the phone systems at random a BIG issue since your paycheck is auto-populated based on the minutes you spend logged into the phone systems There are program Managers that are supposed to be there to help resolve these issues but they do nothing A lot of the agents are complacent and have bullied other agents when if they complain about any of the maladapted behaviors and practices that are in place You can see many threads of resource agent normal agent interactions that are appalling in language and scope These threads usually start with a simple and innocent question about the inner workings of working solutions and are met with vicious comments Essentially it all boils down to a facet of exploitation Many of the workers here have few other choices in attaining quick and easy employment in this time and are unlikely to seek legal recourse as the pay they receive is close to nothing Save yourself do not contract here

I feel completely misled
I feel completely misled by the company I accepted a position contracting for Turbo Tax during this tax season During training we were told more than once there would be plenty of hours even more than full time if you wanted it Totally not true I was not able to get even close to full time until I was promoted to a tier 2 agent after attending a one hour WebEx meeting We were also told repeatedly that there were no minimum hours so you could work this as a second job Basically they lie about the minimum because you get reprimanded quite rudely if you don t schedule 15 or 20 hours even though there aren t official minimums Training is a joke that you will be lucky to get paid anything for Their payroll system is a royal pain No regular direct deposit unless you want to wait days longer for your paycheck Instead they direct deposit it to a prepaid account that is overrun with fees And you re a self employed contractor and have to pay your own taxes At least that they are upfront about from the beginning Otherwise they mislead you their systems are a mess and make it very hard to stay logged in and available for the full 60 minutes each hour so you can get paid for 45 minutes at whatever per minute rate they are paying you and they have some very unprofessional staff who don t know how to deal with people professionally

Inconsistent Assessment Grading Policies
I took the assessment with them a while back and passed I have proof of this in my email I tried to log in recently and was greeted with a screen that says I did not pass my assessment so I emailed customer service who proceeded to tell me that their assessments have been recalibrated and unfortunately my results no longer meet their requirements and that they don t allow retakes This makes zero sense and I cannot understand how they think this is a legitimate way to run a business Don t waste your time with them because they may just decide to change up their grading system again and alienate even more clients

Easy honest remote work
Working Solutions is a nice company to work for I worked for them about 4 years ago on a couple of different programs and I found them to be a caring company to work for They are helpful and very attentive to you meeting your goals I just started back a couple of months ago and people working to support are still very committed

great educators and class mates
The interaction in training the amount of training that was given the instructors that were training us were absolutely amazing It was fun enjoyable I feared 3 hrs for training I would nod off for sure but NO Not once did that happen I am appreciative grateful for all that was put in to guide us on our journey Would definitely recommend to some one that was looking for an opportunity Great Job
