Rocket reviews

Leaning too hard into AI without proper vetting, employees are treated like cogs in the corporate machine, very little WLB

During my time at Rocket, the cons were glaring. The work schedule was demanding, with employees expected to work 6 to 7 days a week. Although the official hours were from 7:30 am to 5 pm, it was common practice to stay until 6 pm or even later if tasks weren't completed. The company imposed unrealistic daily metrics that had to be met, leading to long hours for the entire team, I'm talking about 70 hours a week, and some required Sundays every month. Despite the extended workdays, Rocket exploited a legal loophole known as "reverse overtime," where employees were paid half-time instead of the standard time and a half after working beyond 40 hours. This resulted in lower pay rather than the expected overtime compensation. Additionally, the sales targets set by the company were unattainable due to exorbitant rates, making it nearly impossible to achieve the required number of sales each month. Stay tuned for more updates on my experience at Rocket.
