Installer
Lead Installer (Former Employee), Woburn, MA – February 19, 2013
Pros: different job each day
Cons: travel
We would install high speed internet access in the Verizon central offices in all Northeastern states. We would travel for a week at a time installing internet to the surrounding areas. The best part of the job was going to the job site and completing a job knowing we were able to get internet to that area. The worst part of the job was the travel at – more... times. It was tough to not be at home most of the time. – less

former employee
Recruiter (Former Employee), Bakersfield, CA – February 8, 2013
Cons: mediocre benefits, not proactive and up to date with employment laws
I found the Volt branch management to be very uneducated and unaware of HR practices - what is legal and what not to do and say in an interveiw. When I questioned - I was told "this is the way we have always done it". I feel if you are a manager or recruiter, you should be trained in the legalities of recruitment. The company likes to rest on its laurels – more... and is not very proactive. Local Management was unimpressive. – less

Decent work environment. Very big.
Factory Worker (Former Employee), Batavia, IL – February 7, 2013
Pros: cheap lunches and the high pay rate.
Cons: everyday was a potential death. the chemicals were deadly.
We would normally stretch in the morning seeing that we would be doing a lot of moving and pushing around everyday. I would take bins and crates (of chemicals) off the belt and re-stack them on the shelves. I learned how to be quick and efficient. My coworkers were all extremely polite and friendly. The hardest part of the job was the fact that some – more... crates were extremely heavier than others while the most enjoyable part was the nice employees helping me out. – less

Family Oriented
Executive Assistant/Admin Lead, Volt (Former Employee), Federal Way, WA – February 5, 2013
The office I worked in for nearly 10 years was headed up by a manager who placed a high value on family. If our family was in need, we were always allowed to place work on the back burner and know that our job was secure in the meantime. I would go back in a heartbeat!

Great Company to work for
Administrative Assistant (Current Employee), Plano, TX – February 4, 2013
They found me a job within a week of working there. My recruiters really cared about me and really worked hard to find work for me. If there are any work related issues, the recruiters give you a fair chance and they also hear your side without bias.

Pros: family oriented, team mentality, great training
Cons: big corporation that doesn't see past big picture
While working with Volt, I realized I found a great place where everyone is like my second family. Although business has not been great despite the efforts of local management, it will sadden me when I leave.

Temp agency
CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE (Former Employee), North Carolina – January 18, 2013
This is a temp agency. If you are sick or need any type of help with anything they are typically not in the same state as you so they are unable to assist you with most things. The people that work in the office that you talk to are very nice and understanding. I enjoyed working with the people that I got to talk to.
