Pros

I have been with the Extra Help team since 2003. I was with Teresa and the team when it was a single cramped office in Marion, Illinois. I have been along to see the company grow to become one of the fastest growing companies in the state and have helped open every branch office. Extra Help is far more than a job; it's a family. It's an adventure! We go to Cardinals games together, have wonderful nights out with dinner and dancing, spend time on the beach in Florida. All of this paid for by the company as a thank you to the employees. I've witnessed the greatest acts of kindness and charity exhibited by the company and owner. Generosity towards employees and communities alike. This is a wonderful place. My home. And, I'm a man. I can tell you all, without any doubt, the slander plastered here is nothing more than trollish behavior by a disgruntled person.

Cons

Don't come to work here if you're not willing to give 100%. The rest of us don't want to take up your slack.

Pros

People at some offices are very nice and hard working. That's about it.

Cons

Where to begin? If you read these reviews and think, these can't be true, they are. The owner is in charge - period. You may be hired with a title, or promised growth, or asked to do something by anyone but her, you need to be ready for disappointment or to get chewed out. Yelling is common, being told how to conduct your personal life, gossip, body shaming, belittling, demeaning emails, being embarrassed in meetings with your peers.... all daily occurrences. Does this sound more like a bad high school bully scene? Bingo! Everyone lives in fear of the "popular" girl, except she is the owner, so not only can she embarrass you, she can fire you, make you work FAR more hours than 40 regularly. Why do people stay? FEAR, or because they have been belittled for so long they forget that they actually have value. So, before you accept a job there - ask the people that are working, do you get yelled at? How many hours do you work? What is the real culture here? When was your last raise? Did you get the bonus you were told you would get? And then get in your car and get the heck out of there!
