Roth Staffing Response
6yWe absolutely agree that sick time should be taken when needed even if that's , unfortunately, right off the bat in your new role. Coworkers have always begun accruing sick leave the very first day they start at Roth Staffing. We did notice that the official Coworker Handbook says that sick time has to be accrued and not used until after 90 days, and as soon as a new coworker raised this question with our HR department a couple months ago, we immediately revised our handbook so that coworkers can use sick time as soon as they have any hours accrued. No one wants to get sick within their first week of a new job, but we certainly understand it can happen and would always be willing to work out a unique scenario with a new coworker if in a bind. If the mission, vision, values feel like drinking kool-aid, then it just might not be the right work culture fit for you and it sounds like you've determined that. That's on us. We have several hiring processes in place where we do our best to assess for a great fit between who the company is and who the candidate is before we make the decision to extend an offer of employment. Working at Roth Staffing or any of our business lines should feel like home - you should feel like the core philosophies of the company resonate with you and bring out the best in you. If it instead feels like a forced fit or a cult, then you don't want that, and we don't want that. Finding the right fit is always tough, but so worth the effort. We definitely don't like to hear that you never got the chance to discuss your professional growth opportunities because there is a lot to offer at Roth in terms of career growth and is a big topic of conversation during the first weeks of our coworkers' learning path.
