Thank you for your feedback. It is unfortunate that you did not have a great experience while employed at MoveHQ. While we strive to provide a great working environment for all employees, we know that sometimes it is not possible to meet the expectations of every single employee. We would like to mention that we offer our employees a flexible schedule as much as possible. We understand employees have obligations outside of work and sometimes need the flexibility of alternate start times and we do our best to accommodate such needs. We apologize if this benefit was not made clear to you during your employment. We do utilize various tools to run our business, such as TimeAssist, just like every other business. These are necessary to ensure we are accurately billing for the work we complete. While time tracking may not be an enjoyable day-to-day activity for some employees, it is necessary to ensure the viability of the company. In 2019 we are modifying our HR processes and introducing all new benefits for all employees. We continue to evolve our technology platforms as we move forward with our software product lines. Unfortunately, meetings are a part of everyone's work life and required to facilitate team activities and productivity.

Pros

I liked working at MoveHQ things were going well. There was a good team atmosphere. We were working on products and developing as development teams should.

Cons

There was a company meeting scheduled via an emailed calendar invite late on September 26th, 2018. On September 27th, 2018 Management explained that there were going to be layoffs with no severance, no warning or heads-up at all. It is also a company policy that you are to forgo any PTO hours upon termination of employment (most companies will pay out PTO upon termination, as it is an earned benefit). Everyone proceeded to freak out until they were called into the office one at a time to be read their fate. When it was over, a significant amount of the Columbus office was laid off. I can't speak to the St. Louis office, but I can imagine that it wasn't much better of a situation out there.

MoveHQ appreciates all of our employees, both present and past, and their contributions to the success of the company and all employees. These types of reorganizations are difficult for everyone involved and not something the company takes lightly. Any employees who were released were due to an elimination of their role due to the reorganization or they were released due to not meeting performance and/or conduct expectations. All employees who were released due to elimination of their role were offered severance. Employees who were released due to performance and/or conduct issues were not offered severance. Each employee was provided their individual reason for release at the time management met with them individually. It is correct that it is the policy of the company to not pay out any unused PTO at time of termination. This is not unique to MoveHQ. While we would have liked to have provided advance notification to those impacted it simply was not feasible.

Pros

Nice schedule, great employees, fun environment! The great thing about this company is their love for the employees who do their job and enjoy working in the moving industry. There are a lot of perks like lunches, events, random snacks and deserts provided, company meetings that aren't boring and are very interesting, and how the company invests in their employees. The benefits are also very nice!

Cons

Pay is a little low to start, but there is room for growth. Other than that there aren't any other issues.
