Group of companies "Excelsior": employee feedback

The search for work was carried out at least once in the life of each person. This issue is especially acute in recent years, when the economic crisis is wining triumphantly over the planet. It is accompanied by massive layoffs, wage cuts and reductions in production. In addition, most private companies went bankrupt, which has substantially reduced the share of small and medium-sized businesses in the Russian economy. However, the companies that remained afloat gained a great advantage due to the reduction of competition in many business areas. The company "Excelsior" in Moscow managed not only to keep its positions in the crisis, but also to expand the list of clients, and to increase the number of personnel. If you are in search of work, then our article will be very useful to you. In it we will talk about the company itself, its main activities and analyze the feedback on the work left by former and current employees of this organization.

Establishing a company

The first company on the Russian market was Excelsior SC, which consolidated its positions from the beginning of the 2000s. The main activity at that time was the management of storage facilities. That is, the employees of the company took care of all the maintenance of these premises, the selection of personnel, as well as the lease of certain areas.

For seven years, the company has managed to gain an extensive customer base and earn a good reputation. At this time, "Excelsior" reviews employees was very good, on the Internet often wrote positive comments, where they mentioned the sensitive leadership and high wages, which in many cases was supplemented by premium money.

As the client base increased and at the same time increased competition from other Moscow companies, the management decided to create a group of companies Excelsior. The year of formation of the organization is 2010.

Company Description

The company "Excelsior" provides a fairly wide range of services. First of all, the organization is ready to assume the full administrative support of your business. It includes the selection and rent of personnel, cleaning of premises and the implementation of security services. In parallel, the work of "Excelsior" includes the initial activity of the company - the management of warehouses in any part of the city.

At the moment, the organization boasts of having twenty-five regular customers. In general, the company operates at two hundred and fifty sites, each providing its own set of services.

For all of its existence, thirteen offices of the company have been opened, and the number of employees is approaching six hundred people. It is they who most often allow us to form an opinion about the company "Excelsior". The feedback from employees is publicly available on various sites, so we had the opportunity to analyze them and conduct a conversation about this organization, based on the facts provided. In all the further sections of the article, we will focus on the feedback of people who worked in the company.

Group of companies "Excelsior": address

All applicants can come for an interview in the office of the company. It is located on Leningradsky Prospekt, house fifteen, building twenty-eight. The company has its own electronic mail box, where you can send an email with questions or queries you are interested in or a CV indicating the vacancy.

Also, you can always call the office and find out at what time an interview is being conducted for a particular job. Usually, administrators at the other end of the wire always specify the package of documents that you need to take with you.

Company's vacancies

The clients of "Excelsior" (reviews of employees we will give in the following sections of the article) are restaurants, large production shops, supermarkets and similar organizations. They are located in Moscow itself, the regional cities and other settlements of our country.

Thanks to an extensive client base , the company's employees offer a fairly wide range of vacancies. Suitable work here can choose for yourself a professional chef, furniture collector, picker or, for example, a cashier. Usually applicants for a particular position have the opportunity to recruit at least a hundred vacancies. All of them with a complete and detailed list of requirements are located in the company's office.

List of requirements for candidates

If you focus on the information written about the company "Excelsior" in the feedback of employees, then we can say that the requirements for job seekers for any vacancy are rather mild. Work can get not only residents of Russia, but also foreign citizens.

Everyone can receive the training necessary for effective work in the chosen specialty. And to come to the company can even someone who does not have any experience at all in principle or the one that is required from the applicant for a vacancy.

People of any age are accepted for work, but keep in mind that those who are not yet eighteen years old must bring a written work permit from their parents or official guardians to the office for an interview.

Interview Features

In the comments about the work of the former employees of the company there is information that many competitors are surprised by the small and not too clean office of the company. Some say that management is not at the specified time and it has to wait more than an hour.

In addition, interviews are often conducted by people who are not quite competent, who can not give reliable information on all issues of interest to applicants. Often the leadership even behaves rudely and frankly disrespectfully even at the interview stage. This repels a lot of people looking for work. Even acute need can not make them start cooperating with this organization.

However, another part of the applicants notes that they were polite and attentive, the waiting for the interview did not last more than fifteen minutes, and the call on the results of the meeting entered the promised two or three days.

Working conditions

Most often new employees of the company work as shift workers. They sign a contract, according to which they undertake to work out forty-five days without days off at the selected facility. After returning they have the right to receive the earned money.

At each facility there is a foreman, who leads a report card and is responsible for all organizational issues, from the meeting of employees and ending with their medical care. It depends on him how comfortable working conditions will be.

Some of the employees of the firm are dissatisfied with the working conditions and accommodation, waiting for the best option. Many lived in a one-room apartment in the company of fifteen colleagues, but the other "was lucky" to be with the same number of workers in the dorm room. Naturally, such conditions affect the mood and performance of people. In addition, among the foremen there were frank hamas and those who abuse alcohol. They arrange nightly debauchs and constantly humiliate their subordinates.

In fairness, it should be said that complaints about such brigade leaders were considered fairly quickly. Some of the company's management removed from the watch and sent new people who knew how and wanted to work. Therefore, quickly established a life and solved all housing issues. Thus, the situation was corrected and the working spirit of the whole team was restored.

In some cases, the food was becoming a problem. Each applicant at the conclusion of the contract is promised a full free food. But already on the watch it turns out that food is provided only once a day and besides, its value is calculated from the total amount of wages.

Keep in mind that the management of "Excelsior" calculates the cost of travel to and from the workplace. Always clarify this point before the conclusion of the contract.

"Excelsior": salary

In terms of wages, some employees of the company expressed extremely negative. The fact is that in many reviews it is indicated that the company's management promises timely payments of earned money, which will be made in full after returning from the watch. But the reality is not so rosy - more than half of the employees (judging by the reviews) received only a part of their money. Another twenty percent were left without pay at all, and only about twenty-five to thirty percent of the company's employees said they received money without problems, but with less food, shipping costs to their place of work and a health record.

By the way, it was the last moment that the most deceived employees were most unhappy. When choosing a vacancy, the organization's management often specifies that applicants do not need to make out a health book. In practice, it is formalized at the expense of the company, and then the expended amount is calculated from the employee. In some cases, it reaches twelve thousand rubles.

However, for all negative feedback on the work of the company's management has its own weighty arguments. It claims that the one who works really, always gets the earned money in full. But loafers and people who abuse alcohol, skipping their shifts, rightly remain without much of the salary.

Registration for work

At the interview, each job seeker is told about the official job placement. Even those who plan to find work in "Excelsior" for several months, have the opportunity to get a record in the work book and white wages.

Penalties

Especially I want to talk about the system of fines accepted in the company. It is interesting that in most of the reviews it is noted that when signing a contract, the need to work out the full forty-five days is emphasized. Otherwise, employees will be subject to monetary penalties.

For example, if you are sick and can not perform your duties, then you will be penalized, expressed in writing off some amount from your salary. Of course, not all this seems fair, but do not forget that you are going on watch. Therefore, no one else can replace you, and, therefore, you should count on your physical and moral strength.

Short resume

Of course, on the Internet the company and its activities are sometimes described in diametrically opposite colors. Some say that they are very satisfied with the work and have already gone on several shifts with a break in a month. And every time the working conditions improved, and the wages were no less than forty thousand rubles. But other former employees of "Excelsior" say that they will never work here again. In addition, they complain about fines and bad attitude on the part of management. Who knows, is it true? Do not forget that people's opinion is always subjective.

Whether it is necessary to be arranged in "Excelsior"? We do not know, it's up to you. But still, we think that everyone should make this decision, relying only on their own experience.
