Coverall Employee Reviews about "coverall"

Pros

Coverall tells you that you become your own balls and make all this money they're coming to franchise owner which is true

Cons

What they don't tell you is that you're going to pay them $10,000 to start up and then we're going to make you pay the rest and small installments in charge you interest out of the yin yang then we're going to nickel and dime you throughout the whole contract of every contract you take from which amounts of about 50% of what the contract is worth in the beginning unless you buy it out right then when you buy the contract we're going to find a way to scheme and say that we didn't get the money and send you all of these red slips through the mail with we've already prepaid you for so then the time that you decide to stop cleaning the contracts they take them from you and you only get a percentage of what the contract was worth when you signed it so they steal your money and then you're on the outside looking in because you're the franchise owner this is a scam

Pros

You are a team in office, you get to challenge yourself independently outside the office as well. No questions go unanswered and as long as you are doing your job and getting better or staying that way, you are recognized for your success and hard work and team efforts. The boss always had meetings to talk about the negative and positive and solutions.

Cons

Coverall was great, no doubt. I had a great boss and field advisor. The cons would be some of the other office members. Even though i get praise for my hard efforts and learn more to get better as i grow, others start to look at you as competition or in my case i was younger then everyone, so when it came to my input... I was treated with no respect at times and picked on for the littlest things. Its sad that i looked up to those same people who taught me all i needed to be successful. My only cons would be some employees.

Pros

Let me start out by saying that I am not a scorned employee (I still have my job) and that I am consistently one of the top reps in my area. But it is sickening to see the spam from upper management on this page. Coverall is NOT a five star company. Never has been, never will be. There is little room for growth and after a year or two at this place, you could be making a lot more money for a lot less headache somewhere else.

Cons

Micro-management. If you don't like it, stay far away. Even if this isn't your sales managers style, it is the style of the higher-ups. And it trickles down to everyone in outside sales. It doesn't matter if you hit or even exceed your numbers every month, they will still find ways push down harder on you. They absolutely don't appreciate your numbers--they just want more. And it makes sense. Franchise Owners suck, can't keep accounts, and the colony loses money. We are the suckers in this rat race trying to make up for it. It's truly a never ending cycle that won't change until the business model does. How they have kept it going this long I have no idea. They prey on inexperienced sellers, new graduates, and people who are out of work. And it's rare to see the same group of outside sales stay together for more than a calendar year. Churn and burn in my office is the norm.

Pros

you will have to secure and make sure of all your work duties Do not not rely on coverall to help you with clients at times. Make sure to build a relationship with your clients and be thorough with your cleaning. Do not leave anything with the possibility of being addressed or complained about cause your client possibly will. Make sure to sign your complaint book everyday and again it is very important to build a relationship with your clients not coverall. They will recycle your business and leave you stranded unless you are willing to pay more money for accounts and still be left with the complete balance you owe them on the franchise. Coverall does not play fair so if you do decide to go with them for your sake please cover yourself.

Cons

They will recycle your business and leave you stranded unless you are willing to pay more money for new accounts other than the package you purchased and still be left with the same complete balance you owe them on the franchise purchase. Coverall does not play fair so if you do decide to go with them for your sake please cover yourself. Be thorough with your work do not leave anything to be touched on cause your clients will complain. Believe me!

Pros

Low initial investment to start one's small business. Can purchase any amount of income revenue frome master franchisor.. Plenty of opportunity for growing new accounts. Very viable to creating a very large customer base within a two-year period with persistence and patience of marketing oneself's business venture. Independent business ownership structure with franchise able to hold your hand if need be. Huge demand for office cleaning/maintenance services. Coverall of Va. is a Distributing Master Franchisor for Coverall Cleaning Concepts Franchise.

Cons

Employee turnover can be a problem. More than probable for a 7-day a week service, the work is performed when most other people don't work. Hefty 15% royalty fee taken from monthly revenue under contract. Paid once a month, not weekly or bi-weekly. Profit margins become smaller the larger your organization grows, which begs the question "is it worthwhile?"
