Q&A With PPLSI Employees
IDX: 0 TOT: 32
What's the work from home policy like at PPLSI?
Top Employee Response
LegalShield welcomes employees to work-from-home. A large % of the workforce are remote, coast to coast.
Leadership doesn’t trust their employees enough to let them work at home.
There is no work at home alternative. They tried to do it in small scale for one department, but in reality only the upper-level executives have the option to work from home. If you work at LegalShield, expect to be a cubicle-dweller.
What do people at PPLSI think about the CEO? What do they do well and what can they improve?
Top Employee Response
Jeff Bell is genuinely caring and empathetic about his employees ("LegalShield family") and his customers. He is passionate, charismatic, welcoming, organized, and drives for innovation and improvement. He cares about overall well-being of all, and encourages ongoing growth and learning. Highly respected overall.
For the most part, everyone like Jeff Bell. He's charismatic and excited about the company. Sometimes the policy change comes out of nowhere and without much preparation though.
The CEO is borderline abusive, up to and including physically (throwing things at people is not unheard of).
Does PPLSI drug test or do a background check?
Top Employee Response
Background check, yes.
Criminal background check (clearly not on leadership, though).
What's the office vibe like at PPLSI?
Top Employee Response
Laid back for the most part. Very friendly as well.
People don’t trust each other because that is the environment created by leadership. And NO ONE trusts HR.
What part of PPLSI's business is growing fastest? What part is having difficulties?
It’s an MLM, so it’s all about recruiting. That’s where the focus is and it shows. They make a lot of money by bringing in new recruits and filtering that money up the ranks to the leadership.
It's all growing at about the same rate, I'd say. Each month is setting records for increase.
If you could make changes, how would you improve the culture at PPLSI?
It’s an immoral corporate culture ran by leadership who do g care about their people. The only change would be a wholesale change in leadership.
Increasing pay would be the first thing I'd do. Also, hiring more people to help the current call volume would be nice.
How's the work life balance at PPLSI?
If you can leave work at work, it’s fine. However, too often your day is so bad (because of leadership) that you take the stress home with you.
For the most part it's very balanced. Until you get further up the chain, then you may bring some work home, but you're compensated for it.
How helpful was your HR team when you were first hired at PPLSI?
Played videos to watch and gave us forms to fill out.
How does PPLSI handle HR issues?
Terminate first, remediation later. There are too many unskilled workers looking for jobs in the area to worry about the job satisfaction of current employees.
How does PPLSI measure success and growth in the HR department?
Evidently by how much resentment and mistrust you engender.
What benefits does PPLSI provide?
Typical, but shrinking.
How are the career growth opportunities on the HR team at PPLSI?
None. No one wants to be a part of that department.
How often do promotions happen at PPLSI?
Often, if you define “promotion” as a title, more work, but no more money.
What are the most important soft skills I need to be successful at PPLSI?
Low self-esteem, because leadership will chip away at your self-respect.
What perk or benefit should PPLSI have?
Just treat your employees like human beings. That’s the “benefit” missing from LegalShield.
What is the best advice you could give someone during their first month at PPLSI?
Update your resume and look for a different job. LegShield should only be considered a stopgap job, not long term and certainly not a career.
How's the vacation policy at PPLSI?
We work with PTO and if you have enough PTO to cover vacation, you can plan it out.
What interview questions does PPLSI ask?
The typical questions, ask about work history, how you think you'd do in the work environment, etc.
What's the interview process like at PPLSI?
Very welcoming. Of course there is the process of applying and if your application is selected, you get an interview with a Personnel Coordinator. They're very friendly and warm people. The interview process is not intimidating at all. After an interview, if they feel like you'd be a good fit, the hiring process begins.
