Job Description
Manic Maids is a reputable and well-established Chicago-based local cleaning company with over 30 years of proven success in the industry. Known for their commitment to quality and treating their team members with respect and fairness, Manic Maids has built a strong reputation for being a family-oriented business that values hard work and dedication. The company is proud to offer a supportive and flexible work environment where employees are appreciated, rewarded, and have the opportunity to build long-term careers. Many of their cleaners have been with the company for over a decade, which speaks volumes about their positive workplace culture and commitment to employee satisfaction.
The company primarily serves clients in the North and Northwest areas of Chicago and focuses on providing residential cleaning services tailored to individuals and families who value detailed and consistent cleaning results. Manic Maids also occasionally cleans small businesses, ensuring a variety of work environments for its employees. Employees enjoy a daytime schedule from Monday through Friday with an optional Saturday, which allows them to maintain a good work-life balance without night shifts or holiday work. The schedule is designed to be convenient, with one or two cleaning jobs per day, enabling cleaners to go directly to their clients and return home without hassle. This approach helps team members maintain regular schedules so they can spend evenings and weekends with their families and have stable, predictable routines.
The position offers competitive pay ranging from $18.50 to $22.00 per hour, with the added benefit of keeping all tips and bonuses, which can amount to $50-$100 per week in tips alone. Additional bonuses include a Christmas bonus, birthday bonus, and performance-based rewards that can exceed $1,000 annually based on attendance, quality of work, and bringing in new customers. Manic Maids provides all necessary cleaning supplies and uniforms, making it easy for employees to perform their duties efficiently. Employees need to have their own transportation and a valid driver’s license since they travel to clients’ homes directly. The company also offers a sick time plan and retirement plan (IRA), ensuring employees have important benefits for long-term financial security and health.
If you are someone who takes pride in doing a job well done, enjoys helping others, and desires a stable workplace where you can grow your career, the Manic Maids team would love to meet you. Spanish speakers are especially welcome, and the company offers assistance during the interview process for those who may need help with English, welcoming individuals of all backgrounds and nationalities. At Manic Maids, the focus is on reliability, positivity, and respect, creating an environment where cleaners feel supported and valued every day.
