I began working with Bloom (Outsourcing Job Agency) in 2024; they connected me with WKPC on April 14, 2025. I am submitting this complaint to formally document my negative experience with White Knight Pest Control (WKPC). Bloom connected me with WKPC on April 14, 2025, where I worked as a customer service representative until the end of August 2025. I blindly trust Bloom and accepted to work for WKPC.
During my employment, I observed widespread issues, including misleading sales tactics, unreliable services, rushed, incomplete, and poor training, hostile management practices, retaliatory behavior, unprofessional supervision, unreliable technicians, billing and service misconduct, contradictory rules, retaliation against employees, and unethical treatment of customers. I strongly believe WKPC's operations negatively affect both customers and employees and deserve careful scrutiny by the Better Business Bureau. They don't deserve an "F", they deserve much less.
My Detailed Complaint
1. Inadequate Training and Unprofessional Supervision
Training lasts only 3 days and is rushed, providing limited written materials and guidelines that do not cover many but many scenarios.
When I asked how to handle scenarios not in the handbook, my supervisor, Kayla, replied, "You can find the answers in my head," which I found unprofessional.
Employees are instructed to ask questions via chat for answers during live calls, but responses are often delayed, causing frustrated customers to hang up.
The handbook and training do not adequately prepare employees for service situations.
2. Misleading Sales Tactics.
Sales agents push new customers to accept initial services for $1-$99 instead of $500. But customers are not informed verbally that canceling the agreement after the first service could result in cancellation fees of $400-$499. Many customers opened the email but never signed the agreements; if they canceled after the first service, they faced the penalties.
3. Challenges and Technician Misconduct
Many customers call in and report that pesticides are ineffective even after months of service.
Escalated complaints are ignored; management provides no deadline for resolution or follow-up. Customers often call back weeks later with the same unresolved issues.
Technicians frequently:
Cancel appointments without notice or explanation.
Argue with customers at their homes.
Perform incomplete or poor inspections.
Submit reports with missing or unclear information.
Show up but performed no service, yet the system bills the customers.
Customers repeatedly have to reschedule, become angry, and complain about WKPC.
Customers repeatedly lose time and trust due to no-shows, unreliable service quality, and lack of accountability.
4. Dishonest and Unfair Billing Practices
WKPC regularly performs services two weeks earlier than the bimonthly or quarterly service was supposed to be, and, of course, bills customers two weeks earlier. Even after agreements end, WKPC continues servicing and billing two weeks earlier unless customers notice and call to correct it.
When I attempted to resolve early service and charges, cancelling the earlier one and scheduling free reservice appointments, I was penalized by supervisors Kayla and Bethany Wunder. And many technicians cancel the free reservice appointments by no call, no show or by simply canceling it.
6. Contradictory Rules and Management Retaliation
Rules are inconsistent and enforced arbitrarily:
$10 credits allowed for affected customers, then prohibited.
Appointment windows were denied per rules, then granted later by another agent, and I was penalized for following the original policy.
Sending customers copies of their agreements resulted in punishment, despite it being their legal right.
* Supervisor issued false performance reports:
o I was accused of taking 3 breaks I did not take.
o I was falsely reported as absent on a day when I had started my shift early and handled multiple calls.
o My work hours were underreported (6 hours instead of 8).
* WKPC's system failed to accurately track hours, yet employees were punished instead of management acknowledging errors.
* When I kindly asked the supervisor and management to double-check their mistake, they responded that they never make mistakes.
7. Retaliation and Termination
* In July 2024, I requested a transfer through Bloom due to unethical conditions. My request was ignored because they didn't believe me.
* When Bloom eventually raised my concerns to WKPC's management, I was immediately terminated, and Bloom was given negative feedback about my performance.
* This retaliation damaged my professional reputation and prevented me from transferring to another opportunity.
* Other employees remain silent, choosing to follow WKPC's practices and protect their paychecks rather than speaking up. To my knowledge, none have reported these issues to Bloom or the BBB or to any other. read more
