Custodian Reviews
What is it like working as a Custodian?
December 2017
Very laid back job.
Custodian in Saskatoon:
Pros: Easy work. Stand around and look over the Trampoline park during shift hours. After close we clean the entire building(Which is why I put custodian)
Cons: Lots of drama between employees. Lots of injuries that you have to deal with. Cleaning is not the most fun.
July 2017
One of the best places I've worked at.
Custodian in Fremont:
Pros: The residents make working here worth while. You'll find that you build relationships with residents that's fulfilling and purposeful. There's no rotating shifts. Workers in our (Environmental Services) department start their shifts between 4am and 7am. The beautiful scenery at this location is almost unparalleled in Alameda County. The benefits package is competitive: Medical, Dental, Vision, 401 (k), PTO, and more.
Cons: As with any job, politics can be discouraging at times. When I first started 4 years ago, I loved working here but upper management has been undervaluing our department by giving us 10-50 cent raises a year which is not enough to give us a fighting chance to deal with the rising cost of living. We're being overloaded with work that could be remedied by delegating certain tasks/projects to the appropriate departments. The only meaningful appreciation we've received is from the residents. Upper Management can do much better and, logically, their decisions towards boosting morale in our department would improve productivity/efficiency much more.

STRESS LEVEL ,MANAGEMENT 1ST SHIFT ,CAN NOT PROFORM.
