Aramark Uniform Services
Reviews and Complaints

Applied for a job on line in November with a compnay call Aramark; a phone interview in December was schedule, the description for what they are looking for describe me and my many years in the Call Center environment. “The perfect job”; Schedule a face to face interview 1st week of December, with the hiring manager; Received a third call in the middle week of December to be interviews with 5 individual within the company.

First week of January a request for references. On January 6, 2011 the job has been reposted on Job Circle; Very disappointed, no phone call that I did not get the job nor an email “Thank you but we decided to go with someone else”

The process of interviewing for a job has gotten so complicated it is no wonder people don’t bother looking for work. You take days off to attend the face to face interview, utilizing your vacation or sick time, only to find out you don’t get the job and you no longer have any time left to attend a vacation with the kids or help your parents when they are sick. And at the end all you ask is a notification whether you got the job or not!

I worked at the Q Center for Aramark as a custodial worker for 16 years. Until a new manager took the place of our old manager this year. Her name is Ana Ruiz. She never liked me, from the beginning, so the minute she became my boss, she harrased me infront of everyone. I told this to the human resources there, Barbara, she didn’t blink once and didn’t care.
They treat several other employees horribly there and no one listens.
I had no choice but to quit. Daily I was being harrased & belittled by Ana Ruiz, she is a horrible person and Aramark did nothing. How can they allow a manager to act this way? It is un-professional. It was literally like being in grade school and being bullied. She is not professional at all!
I hope something is done. Thank you for listening.

i was the maintenence supervisor at the mckinley chalets for 2 years, i left this position for many reasons, inept management the general manager is from new zealand and got his job the same way he got his u.s. citizenship, married into it, i watched this guy ruin a beautiful property in the alaska tundra in less than 6 months, when i say ruin i mean trainwreck, for starters the property has over 600 rooms because of "budget" issues the waste water treatment plant is always last on the list for any repairs or upgrades, so the plant has not worked properly in about 10 years, aramark learned to pay the fine instead of fixing an enviromental issue for the last 8 years, as well as leaving untreated sewage under 2 dining establishments, over 10 inches deep being contained within in the foundation, basically both buildings are acting as sewage holding tanks, since the temperature drops to 40 below the sewage freezes solid and is left until the next spring season, and since it is so disgusting when it thaws out nobody will go clean it up, i personally had to fire 2 people for not cleaning it up, i was dissmissed for insubordinaton because i couldnt get any help to clean up the mess, or support from upper management because it would show the lack of intelligence it takes to run a hotel, and cut into aramarks bottom line for the shareholders, so in closing i ask that anybody that went to the aramark property in [protected], please complain about the smell of sewage you experienced in the courtyard cafe and cabin nite

I work for Aramark in Milwaukee Wi, and we have made complaints to corporate about harassment by the chef. We talked to the manager so many times that we are tired. He talks really mean to us, he acuse workers of using drugs when they dont do drugs, he call us stupid, he talk badly about a workers sexual orientation. He intimidate us by saying if with dont do what he say we are going to get fired. It is to much already, we dont know what to do. The manager says that he cant do anything because his hands are tided and he is waiting on corporate.

I was just this weekend at the Wango Tango Concert in Irvine California and the company Aramark that runs the concession stands. What a rip-off they are.. I remember last year when Centerplate ran the place, they were very generous with their portions of food, etc.
We go this weekend to a concert and order Chicken Fingers.. Ok, for $8.50 you get 2 CHICKEN FINGERS and a handful of FRIES.. Can you believe that..
You can see the the windows how dirty the stand was. The poeple running it were very nice and apologentic about the situatoin but were forced to follow the rules..

I just wanted to point out how Aramark ran a perfectly good gas station and RV park into the ground. The Chevron in Healy is the only place for public showers and laundry within fifty miles. Aramark never fixed anything, price gouged local patrons, and promptly ran off any and all busniess they could to post a loss to get out of a contract. There is a reason the gas was $5.69 a gallon when the nearest competitor a mile away was $4.99. As of today, $4.21 here and $2.99 a mile north. Good busniess! Have a $7 bag of cheetos and wash it down with $6 Odwalla. I now see why everyone hates them! By the way, I am an ex employee who got to see their selective random drug tests, firing people to save bonuses, managers stealing the company blind, and a management that is so grossly inept I am almost ashamed to list them on my resume.

I have personally watched Aramark employees that work in the kitchen of schools, dropping food and picking it back up and not even cleaning it and serving it. I have witnessed milk being returned half empty, and put into other containers and resold. I have witnessed workers sneezing on hamburgers before wrapping them for sale. I have even watched as a bug crawled on a piece of food and was squashed and the food still served. Aramark is disgusting. They should be fined and put out of business. There are so many complaints about this company.

They are gross.
