Upshift Reviews

Lack of professionalism

Hello I hope that this message absolutely gets to someone in a position of power I recently had a phone interview for your community representative on boarding specialist The phone interview lasted two minutes where I was asked the questions what days are you available how soon would you be able to start I answered I have open availability and I can start immediately within two minutes of our two minute phone call The representative of this company said I will pass over your information to the hiring team Once we got off the phone I have received the email that this company will not be going forth with me after two minutes of previously getting off of the phone 1 There was a child screaming in the background so the person could not hear me and complain that there was a delay in the phone when in actuality her child was just screaming and she could not hear me very well 2 She did not speak clearly and seemed very tired 3 I am more than qualified for this role and do not deserve to be lied to I expected so much better from this company

Extremely unprofessional company that

Extremely unprofessional company that doesn t do anything to protect its laborers Arrived at a shift within allotted time employer left the area of the entrance wouldn t let me move forward Sent time stamped pictures reached out the the reference given for employment as well as have a tracker of my location that shows I arrived at the facility By law if not permitted to work Laborers should be awarded 4 hours of paid compensation but instead Upshift is trying to terminate me for abiding by the contract of the claimed shift Maybe just maybe having a real representative instead of bots would serve as a better form of communication

They never have any work available

They never have any work available I don t understand how they have four stars honestly I feel like I waisted my time When they do post something they only need one or two people You have about 50 applying Don t waste your time seriously

False hope for people looking to work

They are hiring a bunch of people in Austin but they have only 1 company with any shifts and it s 20 miles away Feels like they are bringing workers onboard with false hopes just so they can approach companies and say look at all these workers we have ready to go Dozens of people every hour are going through onboarding are being used This was a complete waste of my time Will never have worked even 1 shift

Read the fine print thoroughly

Everything works out fine if you never make a single mistake ever and never need to contact support I m not sure how other cities are but the jobs around me never gave contact information for anyone at the companies looking to fill shifts and contacting support and cancelling shifts is a nightmare Support ignores viable documentation for reasonable emergencies such as doctor s notes and hospitalization records They have no phone number just an online chat so there s no real way to prove support is actually being monitored by people and not AI bots They re not transparent about pay or any of their practices and it s impossible to find information on their website

This company will wrongfully and

This company will wrongfully and fraudulently suspend you 5 star employee never had 1 strike was favorited by multiple businesses but due to Upshifts lack of integrity carelessness and fraudulent behavior my mother is suspended for absolutely no reason Speaking with lawyers now to get her money back pay and all they pay she s lost all they way to January as she had shifts booked all the way up until then

I got fired on my day off

I got fired on my day off Literally A company was able to post a multi day shift for 10 2 -10 3 never accept me until 10 3 they also confirmed the shift as if I did I received a No call no show for 10 2 but I never got accepted for the shift until 10 3 Plus I never accepted neither shift just applied I tried to contract Upshift as soon as I noticed what was happening but the only way to contact Upshift is via text Their response was their generic response Their support team will investigate within 72hrs asked me to send in any documentation to support my disagreement which I sent all notifications email text I received from Upshift to support my disagreement So until Upshift corrects a few communication dispute process I would not recommend this company I was using this site to pic up extra part time work was an excellent employee at every job on time So this assures me that this company has issues

I got suspended easily a lack of

I got suspended easily a lack of customer support Also there were few jobs appearing on the app in my city So I drove 30 minutes got lost got fired for arriving late Then I was terminated from the Upshift site with 3 strikes even though I cancelled my shift Upshift claimed I hadn t bothered to cancel my shift But I know my cancellation went through because the app told me I would receive 1 point my first lost point for being unreliable Instead I lost 3 points as a no show no call and was fired I wasted my day half a tank of gas driving around lost plus I had spent 40 buying the required shoes pants shirt I had to pay for a back ground check to prove I wasn t a criminal So it s likely upshift is primarily makeing their income charging poor work desperate people for criminal back ground checks on themselves All just to be fired and no sympathy from upshift upon replying with my story upon termination Thanks for nothing upshit
