Makes me so sad to see all of the negative reviews. I found plenty of work from home opportunities that were very flexible, and provided me with a stable income to help with my families needs. I understand some people may be looking for something different. but what more could you ask for? Working Solutions provided me with a flexible schedule, great pay, and awesome training and leadership from program managers.
I also don't know if maybe some of you haven't worked from home. Some work from home opportunities do not provide W2's Working Solutions, is one of those. They do however provide a form to show what was earned 1099 which you can use for tax purposes. Working Solutions also considers you a independent contractor vs a w2 employee, which means they do not take taxes out. I wish people would really do more research before bashing a company that has been such a godsend!
If anyone has any questions and I can help, feel free to comment. ONLY suggestion for Working Solutions, can you advise how you could move from a agent to higher up within the company? Or become a resource agent? Thanks so much for providing me with a great employment opportunity!

They will harass you by any means necessary even when you tell them you aren't interested. Any company that does this is untrustworthy. BEWARE! There are many other reputable work from home platforms. I received over 30 emails to my account within 2 months AND received a solicitation TEXT. Something isn't clean in the water. I've save every thing so if it happens again I will go ahead and report them. Creepy!

I used to work through another company but I really prefer the scheduling here. I don't like the company that processes the checks.
