Home City Ice reviews

There is no short day at HCI, 12 hours MINIMUM. It is all commission based which is about 10% of your total sales for the day. This can be good and bad because you could end up working 14 hours and make less money then a 10 hour day depending on how much ice you sell. Also the day never has to end since you have to hit priority stops and call ins. Every second you are not filling an ice box is working for free. I once had to drive an extra 3 hours because ONE stop needed Ice. Management is a joke as well. My boss was younger than me and his boss was my age. They didn't know how to deal with Employees basically telling me you have to do it even tho it's total bs basically slave labor at certain times. Also management is essentially required to take phone calls and set up route schedules which probably is 1% work. I walked in on my boss numerous times just watching youtube on computer after giving me more stops to do after I think my days over. We never got what we were promised which was dedicated loaders of ice which is time you do not get paid for and to have trucks run out to you so you didn't have to reload. Which can take up to 2 hours if everyone comes back at the same time. Without cdl b you can only take 5 pallets of ice which is like 6 hours of work and then you have to reload then you have to load at the end of the day too! All for free because it's commission. The job itself was easy and mindless but the people you deal with at the gas stations and Meijers are really garbage people and disgusting.
