Sexually discrimination

How can you post a job that states can lift up to 50 pounds and then remove women from the job ticket? And state that corporate won’t allow women to work there. It’s a warehouse- last I checked women are permitted to work anywhere a man is. I’ve been removed from two separate job tickets after accepting them thru this app by Cathy in plant city and Lakeland, Fl stating “oh you can’t have this ticket, you’re a female, you can’t do this work. I have to remove you, I don’t have a choice; this is a corporate account.”
At first I thought she was joking. Also, why was my pay sent to a pay card when I never authorized for that to be done? I still haven’t been paid for the work I did in January 24.
Where’s my work history in the app JobStack? Its empty.
Please fix these things.

Still glitchy!

I am convinced that the in-app bug report has no one on the other end for you to reach with your message! Notifications are still a major problem with my app. If there’s anything that can be done to revamp or remake this app, it would be great because nothing that has been done has resolved the issues consistently! Whenever you don’t get notifications properly you lose money, you lose opportunities and I’m not happy with that! Please someone in a high ranking authority position that has the ability to make things happen concerning this app please either fix or replace this app with a properly working one I would be greatly appreciative of that. Thank you so much!

Glitches

JobStack often has glitches. The notifications don’t work properly and the option to refer workers sometimes doesn’t show anything on the receivers phone. Rate and confirm also had glitches. You have to log out of the app and power your device off and back on and then log back into the app or sometimes your pay will get stuck in the system and you’ll have to call the branch for them to payout. This is problematic! With notifications not working properly you will likely miss jobs! And with rate and confirm glitching you will likely put a burden on the branches if they are onboarding or otherwise busy! I’ve put in several bug reports with no fix or response! I like working for People Ready and when the app is working it’s ok but it’s an ongoing set of issues with JobStack!

Thanks for taking the time to leave us feedback. We’re glad you’re having a great experience with JobStack!

My experience.

I’ve been sent on a few jobs that I’ve accepted and so far they have paid me o time and daily. But I do have one concern: The Start Time only states the Start Time but not the End Time. Or even give us a certain amount of time in a day to work. Example: Could work from 5 to 7 hours or 8 to 10 hours daily. Because I do have a full time job as well. That will help me a lot to determine weather I can take more jobs or not.

Avoid this place

Too much information to get hired through an insecure app. The staff will forward you to voicemail. You need to wait for recruiter to contact you before hiring, or designate someone to identify you. Bad impression from this company. Lady on the phone seemed very unprofessional, just an “answer and hang up” type of call, but that’s if they answer.

It seems they rather hear voicemails than deal with people directly.

They look for professional workers, workers with experience, flexible schedules. The clients can request you for a day and say they will need you for a week and suddenly it’s only 2 days. They are inconsistent, unreliable, and they use workers from third party to not deal with anything they should actually be paying for. The clients don’t abide to OSHA standards, and PeopleReady does not support anyone who complains since it’s a common trend with every temp-hire agency.

They simply will stop giving you work and you are left to look for work elsewhere.

They need you to submit all your hours which is fine because that’s how it’s done. Though, who knows what else you need to do that the staff should actually be doing themselves.

The app itself ran quite smoothly so props on that.
Sadly the staff itself was the reason you get 0/5 stars.

Be professional

when sent out on a job, be professional and help the supervisor fill in where the help is needed. make sure you get good reports and give People Ready a good name. so that the people at People Ready at your local branch know what kind of job tickets to put on your app so you can always find a day to work and get paid the same day so you can count on working when you want and count on the money you need to survive.

Just not there

This app used to be really good for locating local jobs in your designated area or what part of town you were in depending on what shipyard you need to work on until their systems are updated further in this app to where it can actually assist you based off what skills you to have
Anytime I hop on here to look for work or see what is going on in the ports or what construction jobs they do have available nothing seems to pop up

Wonderful App! 5 stars just minor change or two

This app is great! I cannot say enough about it. First off, I work with People Ready in Fayetteville, NC and they are amazing! So I guess it helps that the real people on the other end of the app are so friendly, professional, and a joy to deal with. One change I would make is that I would like to see the app show how many workers each job needs. My fiancée and I like to work as a team and it’s just helpful in us planning, with one car, if we work together or how to coordinate transportation to 2 separate locations. With that said, approximate hours of the job and/or ET of job end would be helpful. I have seen this information posted on other job apps. The other change I would make is to be able to expand in mileage radius. Sometimes I would be willing to take a job in South Carolina because I have family there. I could take a job then head to visit them upon completion. So that’s about it…I love the People Ready app!

JobStack - Daniel Padilla

Finding work has never been easier, thanks to JobStack. It is so convenient, and very simplistic in regards to determining on which job works best for me on any given day. The simple ease of getting daily assignments for the right amount of pay, and the fact of getting paid at the end of every day, is what I love about JobStack. I’m not sure if it could get any better…

Thank you JobStack/PeopleReady.

My idea

Its a reliable source for money some jobs are far but not all it’s a waiting game at times for the right job but this app is definitely worth trying out it keeps you with a busy work schedule at moments,
You can works days you want and get paid sometimes that very day, Remember don’t let the job work you, you can work the job. . .

Working for PeopleReady & The app

I’ve been working with people ready in ATL, Ga for almost 10 months now and here’s what I can say about both the app and the company.
There’s several different branches that staff different types of job from warehouse to cooking. They always CONSISTENTLY PAY EVERYDAY or THE NEXT DAY. That’s something you can always count on. My biggest problem with this company is no matter what job position is posted the pay rate is always the lowest amount of money they could possibly give you on top of wanting people to travel hours to get to and from a job site..
If your looking for something FULL TIME STEADY AND RELIABLE this is NOT the ideal job.

simple 1 day jobs normally

If you’re just needing extra cash, this could be helpful as most jobs last for a day - though some have FT/PT opportunity. Despite the job preferences I listed, I continuously get recommended jobs I have no interest or skills in which is quite annoying. The past couple of days they’ve been giving last minute job notices (i.e, job starts at 9 and they send a text at 8:40) which is ridiculous. Would personally prefer to just stick to job sites then this app.

The Overall worth of this app.

This app is excellent to manage your work life balance. Being a new user of this app, and this type of work scheduling, It would have been perfect if the app had more details as to the tools you would need to have on hand before going to the job site, along with the amount of hours you will be working for each job. Nonetheless
this app is worth 5 stars, hands down.

So far... so badd

Have had this app for about a month and a half. Cannot get in to the local branch to finish onboard application. Called for 3 weeks straight got the same Awnser they are not taking new applicants at the moment. Call back next week. They have had no work for about 3+ weeks. Leave your name and number we will get back at you by the end of the week. But nothing. Should i delete this app that has several third party permissions??? Is this app a hoax??? Are the branch personnel out looking for new clients themselves?? Will give it till the end of July then i will give it my final rating and review.

Lack of care in Austin, TX

Do not work for this company if you live in Austin. I showed up to a job twice and was reassured that the job would occur the second day. After showing up the second day, I was informed the job was cancelled and that my time would not be compensated for. It took me two hours round trip to get to the job site. Complete lack of care for my time. Not only that but I didn’t pick up other potential jobs because I was committed to this one. I just started working for this group and this is the second job in two weeks that I have been screwed over on.

Horrible Company to work for

This company has went downhill fast. Dispatchers play favorites and give the good paying jobs to their own family and friends and lovers . They have bad attitudes and can do whatever they want, so they don’t treat workers very well. They’ll adjust things on the backend of the app to only offer certain people the undesirable jobs that are the furthest distances(30-50miles away). You don’t always get paid when you’re told or expect to, they’ll hold your pay for no reason, other than to be spiteful towards you, but will pay everyone else that worked the same shift as you and have you calling and begging them for the money you’ve earned while they ignore your calls for days.
Wonolo, swipejobs, veryable, instawork all are better options with less stress . You’ve been warned ...

Networking at its finest

Pros:This app makes it no man can ever have an excuse for not being able to work I love this app it is all the connections you just have to pick the Plug
Cons: Here at job stack they are very very strict because they want employers to understand that they are professional and only will hire professionals on their teams, therefore too many times of picking a job and not following through with it will result in temporary suspension with the app.
Good Luck!

Bad company to work for period

Complete waste of time I wouldn’t recommend to anybody..hard to believe these guys are still in business …the jobs will give you a start time but not a finish time…most jobs Are not what the description says..all jobs don’t leave a call number so call if anything happens you’ll have to call the branch and if this happens be ready to wait over an hr and a half for a answer..be prepared to show up to a few jobs and get turned around because they have already sent enough people out you’ll be promised show up pay but will not receive it..this app or it’s people don’t not care about their workers at all avoid the hassle and go to another app not worth it at all ..
