I have being employed with ESS for more then a few years. I enjoy working for them and the districts they serve.

The Organization mission is straightforward. ESS provides staffing needs for school districts. I see some negative reviews for the organization, and would like to present a positive one, with some facts to support.

The School Districts, I serve in New Jersey, have extremely responsive Field Managers. Questions are answered quickly; We recieve guidance, offering(s) of long term positions, along with other opportunities for financial gain.

Some benefits are Medical/Prescription assist, eye exam. I have taken advantage of the 401k offering, and life insurance with a yearly fixed rate that cannot change for 10 years, excellent!

Another benefit is working as support for schools with the ability to long term sub or accept daily work assignments. Lastly, a positive benefit is working with local districts, without paying for contractual obligations, i.e. union dues, contract benefits, and mandatory PD days.

The company would earn a 5 star rating in my book if they offered a legitimate PTO.

The organization does a monthly raffle to winners who have served 5+ days in a month.
This is the motivation to win small dollar awards. A more attractive venture is earning days off, Paid Time Off, PTO.

My challenge to this organization would be to offer PTO to gain that long term employee(s) work force in desired districts.

Example, An employee works 2 months full time, no sick time and receives, .375 days pto, for that time worked. ESS can do the math to see if that incentive works. I think it would to promote long term positions.

Good company, some extra perks would build long term commitments..support in $$ from ESS.
