Amazing Company To Work For

Pros

Since joining the OpalStaff team, I have been nothing but pleased with my job. The staff, the atmosphere and the overall work ethic of the employees and the people we employ have surpassed any other job I have held in my 18 plus years of working. I look forward to walking in the door everyday to see what new challenges arise and the support in the staff to overcome them for ultimate success.

Cons

I have yet to encounter any negative aspects of the company.

Nice people, antiquated systems

Pros

The people are nice to work with.

Cons

Their payroll and timecard systems are pretty bad. They even revert to printed checks at times when they claim they have "problems" getting direct deposit to work. Rumor has it the real issue is cash flow and they do checks to buy themselves a few extra days before pay is actually cashed in. Their "time sheets" are literally excel templates that have to be physically printed, re-scanned and then sent in.

Many of "our people" have been with the company for 10+ years and can attest to the efficiency of our payroll and time-card systems. In the event that paper checks have ever been used, it was to absolutely ensure people are paid on time. We don't operate or deal in "rumors" at OpalStaff. Anyone with questions regarding our systems or cash health is encouraged to give us a call.

Pros

Lunch was always fun, got an hour which was really nice. The people that worked there were "okay" too. Sometimes you even had a chance to chat with the team and enjoy an adult beverage. Doubt that happens much anymore though.

Cons

Where to even start? The Culture of FEAR is REAL. They stated no closed door meetings, don't think I ever saw an open door. If you enjoy working at a place where you think it could be your last, this place is for you!

Thank you for your review. One of the reasons OpalStaff was named "Best Place to Work" by the Baltimore Business Journal is that we are always open to and looking for opportunities to improve as a company. We would appreciate any specific criticisms or suggestions you may have that would help us be the best employer we can be.
