Complaint: Jasper Contractors is a joke. ^^ oh how i wish i could underline that a few more times. Firstly, i was contacted about working for this company through my friends brother-in-law, he sat me down, discussed a few things and explained to me that the expectations for a person starting out in the company were not that high and that i would be sent to Lincoln, Nebraska for a training period until after Christmas, when i would be sent to Phoenix, Arizona for more permanent work. Jasper informed me that they pay a 30k base salary plus commission and sweetened the deal when they mentioned paid health care and a paid hotel (the only real money out of pocket was my travel). For a 20 year old, that’s a big step up from working at wal-mart like most my age. So, I basically leave my friends, family, and girlfriend in Tennessee (almost a thousand miles away) to come to Lincoln to work for these clowns. I’ve never been in sales, nor done anything involving construction, so naturally i would have to learn about the company and their processes as well as basics about roofs. My “training”” with the manager lasted 2 days and consisted of inspecting 2 roofs and signing ONE contract. (Great training huh?) As a side note I’d also like to add that during my 2 week stay in Lincoln
