Valet Living reviews

The executive level of the company has decided to completely remove the District Manager position and break it into multiple roles. What sounds great on the surface is anything but that. Area Leaders (formerly District Managers) are no long a salaried position and have been moved to hourly workers with ridiculous qualifications of what's "labor". With less than a week of notice, we were told that we had to perform all of our same tasks & duties but we'd be clocking in and out while doing them. Any travel for work (most of the driving you've been/will be doing) without "work before hand" will be considered an unpaid commute. We used to have the ability to interact with our clients, hire/interview at the hours that applicants were available to speak and submit reports when available. Now we are squeezed into a very tight evening window (clock in at 4 PM when most offices are closed by 5 or 6 and only want to interact with you first thing in the morning) where you have to get all of your admin and operations work done. If you go over 40 hours in a week (a time study was conducted before this happened and most people were logging over 100 hours a week), you're told that you cant manage your time and to figure it out before you get replaced. If you see a posting for "District Manager" or "Area Leader", run dont walk away. You're going to be hired into a company that's actively trying to destroy itself, aggravating clients and you're going to be making about $20K less than your predecessor (DM Salary, approx $50K-60K, Area Leader Salary approx $35K-40K) for a more stressful work environment. If you're currently an employee dealing with the non-transparent transition, take advantage of the time you cannot work and work a side job, business or go back to school. This was an okayish company years ago but it's just a manager-mill at this point that wants to chew you up and move onto the next sucker. Expect to see a lot of job openings for this company in 1 year. That is when the "retention bonuses" will be stopped and all of the experienced employees are going to pull the trigger on their immediate departure from the organization.
