Good temporary workplace
Packer (Former Employee), Rockford, IL – May 17, 2013
A typical day at work would be packing and labeling pipes with minimal supervision. I learned to be a self motivator. My co-workers were helpful and kind. The hardest part of this job was the dirty environment.

Adecco employee, at GSI Commerce
Customer Service Representative (Current Employee), Melbourne, FL – May 17, 2013
Pros: free coffee
Cons: short, late lunches (9am-8pm shift, lunch at 3:30, lasting only 30 mins)
A typical day at work is tiring because you are constantly answering calls and dealing with some rude, some impatient, and some unsatisfied customers. But there are also some nice ones. I learned how to keep a positive attitude regardless of the situation. Also , how to assist customers in placing orders, handling order errors, escalations, etc. Management – more... wasn't as helpful or polite as they should be "all he time". It all depended on who was helping and at one time. The hardest part of the job was controlling my temper when being talked down on by customers. The most enjoyable part was speaking to a patient and understanding customer and placing an order for them, getting a situation taken care of, and seeing them leave happy and satisfied. – less

Stratford CT Location
Customer Service (Former Employee), Stratford CT – May 16, 2013
Pros: none.
Cons: they will jerk you around and waste your time and gas. avoid!!!
Just got jerked around. Spent 2 hours testing online, was called and told I did well, "come in and fill out some paperwork and bring ID and we will send you there next week!" then one hour before my appointment to go in, they called and cancelled saying the job had been filled. A few months later, I got another call. Again, "We will get you right in" – more... This time I drove to their office, about 15 miles each way. I interviewed, they promised to get back to me, heard nothing. I emailed the person I interviewed with and about the job I came in and interviewed for and she had no idea what I was talking about.I described the job and she insisted there never was any such job. I found the ad for that job on their website. So, they are either very very disorganized, or they post fake jobs.Not sure which, and don't really care. Also, they interview you right out in the open, discussing pay, etc in front of other candidates. Aren't job interviews supposed to be private? Nothing but a waste of time and gas. – less

productive and fun workplace
operator technician (Former Employee), andover – May 14, 2013
Pros: meeting new people, learning new things
Adecco is my agency, they provided me with my most previous job in R. Twinings & Co. During my time there i learnt so many things I was trained up to operate the machines and even run a line. My co-workers were a joy to work with and I found that I made friends with everyone i worked with including management.
The most enjoyable part of the job was – more... getting to learn so much about how the product was made and important customer satisfaction is.
The hardest part of the job was when everything would be rushed and it was a struggle to ensure you had everything done, but i loved the fast paced environment. – less

Productive yet laid back environment
Member Services Representative (Former Employee), Lexington, KY – May 13, 2013
Pros: work schedules and occassional free lunches
Cons: temporary position, no medical insurance or overtime
I received incoming calls from members regarding their Medicaid benefits and from providers regarding claims and authorizations. Management was friendly and approachable. Co-workers were friendly as well and extremely helpful. They were very willing and able to assist whenever I or any others needed assistance.

I didn't enjoy "slow days", in which – more... the call volume was low and not much off the phone or in between work to complete during these time frames. – less

Pros: coffee machine
Cons: dirty
A typical day at work involved welding re-bar frameworks for reinforcing concrete tunnel sections, setting up and operating a band saw to cut steel girders into sections for butt plates or operating an hydraulic punch. The management and co-workers were a fun crowd to work with.

No Certainty
Warehouse Associate (Current Employee), Wake Forest, NC – May 11, 2013
There is no certainty of hours. There is no need to do your best and perform outstandingly. Because they don't care. They don't know what's on for tomorrow or today. I have no clue how they hire their HR. Their HR is just disorganized, arrogant, don't care, etc

Professional, Passionate about Job Placement and Candidate and Client relationships,
Reception/Office Administrato (Former Employee), Brisbane Branch – May 9, 2013
I worked with Adecco for 6 & 1/2 years and thoroughly enjoyed my time there and left with sorrow when the Company was required to make cutbacks in staff and spending.
My typical day was very varied, reception, administration, meeting and greeting, providing office support, coordinating meetings, training, functions and being the first point of contact – more... for candidates and clients and visitors to the office, Client and candidate relationship building. Everyday there would be something different to do, someone new to meet and new challenges to meet.
In my role with Adecco, I learnt new skills in lots of different areas, most of all account management client and candidate care and relationship building, communication and a passion for work excellence. New software packages and above all I believe that I developed as a person, through the encouragement of management and colleagues. My co-workers at Adecco were part of my family. I enjoyed my role and really there was no hardest part, I enjoyed everyday. Management were very supportive and very approachable and our HR Department were excellent with their incentives and their work/life balance. – less

Looking for a recruiting or project manager position within a retail industry company
Sr. Recruiter (Current Employee), Boston, MA – May 8, 2013
I came to Adecco in July of 2010 after working within the staffing industry for a number of years and started off my position as an in-office recruiter in the general staffing division. I quickly grew to take on many responsibilities as my previous experience within sales, customer service and retail attributed to my success. Ten months into my role, – more... I was asked to be the lead on a large renovation project for one of our customers that needed upwards of 70+ associates for three different shifts. I became the main point of contact with the project manager, handling everything from training, accident prevention, firing, invoice assistance and seeing the project through to the end. With my strong organization, communication, and recruiting capabilities we were able to hire all the necessary associates.
Within 3 months of the project I was asked to take on as onsite supervisor for one of our large national accounts handling everything from keeping customer relationships, training, hiring on three different shifts, assisting in the administration of health and safety handbook, resolving issues, as well as implementing new positions to assist in the day to day task on the production floor. After a period of about two months I was asked to take on another onsite supervisory role handling the hiring for three different shifts. Through my entire onsite supervision roles, I was also continuing recruiting efforts within the office for other customers. – less
