Vantaggi
Pro - The temporary agency will send you to an assessment first, assembling and labelling one of the product lines; just follow the directions and stay focused not hard at all.
Pro - Good manufacturing operator onboarding; I spent two weeks in training and shadowing the operators on the line and I started out optimistically.
Pro - I worked on various lines of the drive-thru technology; headsets are the most demanding.
Pro – The building and area are decent; break room has big flat screen with game shows running all day.
Svantaggi
Con - I saw a split between the temporaries and the regulars. During busy times (summer), the temps are kept busy while the regulars do little or take easy assignments, and when the busy times are over, all the temps are let go and the regulars are finally put back to work.
Con - When the assignment ended, I was called by the agency to come in and turn in my ESD jacket and badge with the ESD heel straps … Why didn’t they collect these at the end of the assignment at HME?
Con - I don’t recommend working there as a temporary employee; only apply as a regular, or your time will be wasted filling in for regular employees with years of service that do little while you are busy.
Con: Company laid off many temporary workers a week before the big company picnic…
