Pros

I am so proud to work for this organization. I work in the Houston market and hurricane Harvey is such a horrific disaster. We have had coworkers and ambassadors displaced for over a week. A special fund was orchestrated by our Senior Leadership to help in relief. The first great news came from our Founder and CEO that they were donating over 75,000 to the American Red Cross and to our workers here in Houston. Then something just as amazing happened from our internal employees. They started donating their own personal money for our relief efforts! The money was doubling and tripling each hour as they were donating their hard earned dollars to help in the relief efforts of this storm. The money kept pouring in day after day. Because of this effort our ambassadors will get support as well as us as internal coworkers. I am so proud and honored to be a part of this company. A special shout out to our Denver Market who covered our phones, helped with payroll and supported us 100% in our time of need. Thank you Denver and every other coworker that is a part of Roth Staffing! I cannot put into words how thankful I am to work for and with this company. When the going gets tough, this is where I want to be! We are part of something very special!

Cons

We have our problems and issues just like any other organization but the spirit and love of our internal team is unmatched.

Pros

Great company led training Work/Life balance

Cons

Local managers have no respect for upper management. Upper management is continually mocked and ridiculed until they are in the branch. The lack of respect carries over and has a dramatic impact on morale and dedication. Branch training is not efficient, beneficial or in line with corporate directives. Staff is continually told to ignore corporate mandates and follow local directives instead of adhering to company direction. This causes misalignment, confusion and low morale. Management (at all levels locally) is very condescending and dismissive when it comes time to discuss real problems. Extremely high turnover happens for a reason. It is time to stop blaming staff and recognizing it is the local leadership. I saw too many hard-working people who loved what they do leave this company because of the poor leadership at the branch and brand level.

We did agree to allow Glassdoor to request reviews. Glassdoor makes a valid point in doing so... they believe that people considering a job offer from our company want to hear what it's like to work here from actual current employees. That is why we allowed Glassdoor to email coworkers and ask them to consider writing an anonymous review telling potential employees their perspective of why they decided to work at Roth Staffing and what they like best and least. We believe that it results in genuine ratings, not fake ratings. We know that Roth was not a good fit for you, we know that you had an opportunity to sit one on one with an executive leader and share your frustrations, and we sincerely wish you the best of luck at your new workplace.

Not as good as it seems

Pros

- 9/80 flex schedule - 4 volunteer half days per year - Easy to bond with coworkers over how much we dislike the office

Cons

- Extremely high turnover (we lost 7 employees in 6 months- only 14 in the office) - Low morale in the office and management doesn't seem to care- nothing is done after low survey results - When you tell management you are not happy you either get a condescending response or something along the lines of "get on board or get off" - Branch manager is too busy to be involved/ give advice, I would have left a lot sooner if it wasn't for my team lead - One-on-one meetings with the branch manager are more awkward than helpful - Expect you to exceed high metrics while constantly throwing new tedious tasks at you - When you leave they take all of your commission, even when you leave on good terms- My client paid their fee on my last day and they did not pay me because the payment was posted the next day. Many people feel trapped at Roth for this reason. - Every one of my coworkers who left hates the company and is much happier in their new positions - I quit almost a month ago and no one has reached out for an exit interview (they don't even pretend to care...)

Your engagement survey feedback is the very reason why the senior vice president of Roth Staffing came to your branch to sit down one-on-one and discuss your concerns. Your feedback is taken very seriously and we do appreciate all that you shared. We did not reach out for an exit interview because you were able to share all of your grievances directly with the senior vice president before you left.
