      Pros

      There are none worth mentioning

      Cons

      They actually had the audacity to call the temp agency recruiter, and have her to ask me to take down the review. She stated she understood I needed closure but I clarified that I am fine with the decision the company made not to continue employing me but will NOT let the unprofessional behavior go unchecked. Period. The unscrupulous tactics are perpetual with this company and one person is the culprit. Asking me to delete my review further proves my point about their unethical behavior. First, I agreed to remove it and I took it down. However, everything that I am saying is true and I have solid proof of everything I claim. They had all the managers to throw up a bunch of reviews after I posted my initial review to try to discredit what I said. However, that doesn't negate the fact that your behavior is deplorable. The entire set up is unorganized. There is an unwillingness to help new employees and they give zero training but want you to "use your resources" to figure out how to go about your job. They do not want you to ask your coworkers any questions about what to do; yet they expect you to fumble your way through the day not knowing what to do. They expect you to be responsible for getting materials necessary for field techs to do work in your personal vehicle with no regard for mileage or gas reimbursement. Feedback is not provided even when asked SEVERAL times for it. They don't plan the installs with consideration to their employees taking a lunch but will say, "eating is important!" with a fake smile plastered on their faces. HOWEVER, they take lots of corporate lunches and don't even offer to get the employees stuck behind a drink of water!

      I’m sorry your temporary work assignment was such a poor experience. We are building a new company and it’s growing very rapidly. You rightly point out that with that growth comes opportunities for us to make improvements when it comes to training, organization, and providing clearer feedback. We will work to do better here. Joining a young company like ours comes with perks like the latest computer hardware, unlimited snacks / beverages, and casual dress, but it also comes with the expectation that all employees, whether they are full time or temporary, use their resources to figure out how to do the job well. We cannot afford to sit back and wait. We need people to be proactive. Some people will thrive in that environment, but we know that is not going to be fit with everyone. We wish you luck in your next opportunity.

      Pros

      Outside of working in the nonprofit space, Flock is the most mission oriented job I have ever had. Every person I have worked with here has an intense passion for public safety and helping survivors of crime alongside an intense passion for ensuring community values are maintained alongside that. Creativity in problem solving is encouraged, I have yet to see a supervisor who is threatened by one of their team members coming up with innovative ways to build our their program or improve the organization. I have found Flock to be a great place to be supported in my professional development and not be boxed into mindless corporate bureaucracy that kills passion and creativity.

      Cons

      Those that need rigid structure in order to succeed will not succeed at Flock. There are absolutely metrics and goals that need to be achieved but you will not be hand-held. Those who succeed are the ones who move both decisively and strategically accepting a mistake may be made. Those who will not succeed are those who move slowly but but require perfection. Given the high-profile nature of the work, grit and resilience are definitely required.

      Pros

      Steady hours and solid experience building out regional tracking networks. You get to work independently on the ground most of the time.

      Cons

      Massive scope creep with zero additional compensation. They increased the physical labor requirements significantly—shifting from digging standard 30-inch holes to digging 42-48 inch deep holes reinforced with rebar and four bags of concrete—while keeping the pay exactly the same.On top of that, logistics are awful. They closed down local supply hubs, forcing massive weekly driving distances just to fetch basic equipment, yet scheduling was so uncoordinated it took them weeks to stop assigning full workloads on supply-run days.Supervisors act like mindless "company men." I was left on read while experiencing severe heat exhaustion symptoms in 100+ degree heat just so a supervisor could check daily production metrics. They treat field techs like disposable machinery, expect brutal days with hours of exhausting driving through remote territories, and offer zero operational support. Even after you leave, offboarding is broken; internal IT support analysts ignore their own logistics vendors, leaving automated systems to spam former employees for weeks about equipment they don't have.
