Firequench Reviews

"Where to begin? Oh yes, please run the other way, do not waste your time responding to their ads because you'll just be one of many that fill out the 10 page employment application which will take you about 30 minutes to do, to then only be interviewed for 2.5 minutes. In my opinion, the owner is the most unprofessional, shady individual that you will ever meet in your life. If his clients all saw his true nature, the company would be left with no clients. His shady business practices know no limits. The company sends out invoices that are older than 10 years and expects for these clients to not question the validity of these so-called invoices and pay up.The owner has extensive mood swings and irritations that cause him to disrespect, curse, slam things and/or throw things at anyone that comes across his wrath, I truly feel sorry for his employees. The personality that the owner puts as a front when he is talking to his clients or when he is trying to get new clients is completely the opposite of his true nature. I would love to know the real reason as to why he has not been caught yet in all of the schemes and scams that he runs on a daily, weekly, monthly and yearly basis. Be very weary of being lured with promises of working for a great company with excellent benefits, bonus, etc... because if you do make it past the 3 month trial basis (very few have stayed that long), then the owner will find some so called "reason" as to why you will be terminated once you pass the 3 month mark because they will stop at nothing to never give an employee those benefits. You have been warned, apply and/or work there at your own risk. As for the owner, karma always gets the last laugh."

I made the mistake of not reading the other reviews before agreeing to a job with Firequench. They had me interview on a Saturday (which was a little unusual for me, but ok). The woman that interviewed me was a little off-putting, but I filled out the lengthy application and that was that. She interviewed me for about 30 seconds, offered me an administrative assistant position, asked me to start Monday and was done. Uh, ok. Monday rolls around and I show up there - not one hello, welcome, nothing. Fill out this form. Sit here and answer this phone. There was a printed script taped to the desk. Now, I don't mind covering phones, but I specifically mentioned not wanting to be a receptionist. And, here I am, 10 minutes in....answering the phone, at the front desk. About 30 minutes after that, I try to ask a question - (same woman) says "you have to take a proper message!" Ok. I've been here 40 minutes. She gave me busy work (typing the handwritten messages - no message that reflected well in the company) and answering the phones. At one point the owner called and started screaming at me because the phone rang too many times (I was already on the phone). Ok, enough of this. I had been there 4 hours at this point. Hours for this position 8am-6pm. Yes, 10 hour shift with a 30 minute "break". I spoke with someone who works there and she mentioned that many, many people start and never return from their "breaks". I don't blame them. I lasted one full day. I don't expect to be paid. I googled the company and saw there are a few DOL complaints. I won't use their names because you can find them easily on your own. There are other jobs out there. Anywhere else. Good luck.
