My wife was employed by Ashley’s…
My wife was employed by Ashley’s cleaning company for over one month, bringing with her four years of prior experience as a house cleaner. She was recently terminated, with the company attributing the loss of several clients to her performance. However, the issues stemmed from another employee who had been with the company for five years and recently resigned due to struggles with substance abuse. Additionally, a current employee, who has been with the company for five months, consistently delivers substandard work and is frequently distracted by her phone. Despite these factors, the company unfairly blamed my wife for its declining performance.
Throughout her employment, my wife maintained an excellent record with minimal client complaints and promptly addressed any concerns that arose. Furthermore, the company never required her to sign a contract. When my wife began sharing photos of her cleaning work to attract new clients independently, Ashley, the company owner, contacted her, threatening legal action and demanding that she remove the images.
Additionally, after the aforementioned employee who struggled with substance abuse resigned, Ashley visited her home, aggressively banging on the door and using profanity. This behavior is highly unprofessional, as employees who resign are not obligated to provide explanations or engage further with their former employer. Such actions demonstrate a lack of respect and professionalism.
While we do not discourage others from working for or engaging with this company, we strongly believe there are alternative cleaning services that operate with greater professionalism and treat their employees and clients with more respect. We are deeply disappointed by the unprofessional and unjust treatment my wife experienced at this company.
Additionally, my wife and the employer had an agreement that my wife could pick me up from work at 2:00 PM to drive me home. If this arrangement was problematic, the employer should have communicated this to my wife. We would have been willing to arrange alternative transportation, such as using rideshare services or securing other rides. The employer later claimed that this schedule was an issue, but we believe this was merely an excuse to temporarily utilize my wife’s services until they could find someone whose availability better suited their needs. Professionally, the employer should have addressed any concerns directly with my wife, allowing us to find a mutually agreeable solution. Not to mention, she's never met my wife in person.
This is my honest review and Ashley if you want to have your lawyer contact me feel free to.
