"We love it. The app is easily accessible on all devices so our employees love using it too. "
– David Porto , Co-owner
Prior to using When I Work, David was creating the schedule in Excel and manually emailing updates. The process took at least 10-15 hours a week. Additionally, tracking employee time was taking 3 hours per week. After implementing When I Work, he reduced his time spent scheduling and preparing timesheets for payroll from 15-20 hours a week to 20 minutes. David is also able to better manage his labor costs, saving him over $10,000 annually in overtime.

Studio 33 was founded by Brian Jackson in 1986 to provide lighting, sound installations, special effects, and event rental solutions and have worked with artists such as Toby Keith and Pat Benatar as well as special effects for “The Grinch” (movie). In addition to Studio 33, Brian also oversees Folsom Historic District Ice Rink, a unique seasonal circular rink that employs a large population of high school students.
"When I Work isn’t only a scheduling app for me. It’s also a team communication tool so I can quickly share information - a vital part of my business."
– Brian Jackson , President and COO
When I Work was a fit for both of Brian’s businesses because he is always on the go traveling between the different offices. He relies on his mobile When I Work app to send push notifications if an employee clocks in late or is a No Show. Brian also needs to quickly fill shifts and communicate with his various teams about special events such as Ugly Christmas Sweater Day at the Ice Rink. With an average employee turnover rate of 30-40% every year at the Folsom Ice Rink, Brian hosts an Orientation Day for his new hires to get them situated with the app’s basic functions. In contrast, the team at Studio 33 is a bit more stable and Brian enjoys that employees can directly contact When I Work’s support team if they have questions so he can focus on other parts of the business. Using When I Work helped Brian streamline his business so he can enjoy other facets of his life including his lifelong interest in racing as a NASCAR driver!
