AFIMAC

I can actually say that this company was a good company to work for at onetime but not anymore.The new people they have in management positions are a bunch of wanna be police officers and military ,(talking about fake Valor),but anyway ,you will be required to work 12 hours a day 7 days a week and take in account that you have to add in your prep time to get ready for work ,your meeting that they hold every morning to pass down non important information and your travel time to the jobsite and that can be anywhere for 15 mins to over a hour.You will quickly find out that if you are not in the little circle of friends then your time there will not be pleasant and theres no need to try to get anything done because the people in the office or part of the problem now didn't use to be like that but now it is,so I advise anyone that need fast money just go get your money from this company and work and ride into the sunset .Huffmaster,Jrphillips,securcorp and special response or better companies to work for.Im a 20 year in the labor disputes business so I now the good and bad of the business.

A typical day at Afimac Global involves sourcing candidates, conducting interviews, and collaborating with clients to understand hiring needs. You’ll manage multiple roles and balance urgent requirements, often working on high-volume recruitment.

I've learned to refine my candidate sourcing skills, particularly in specialized industries, and improve my ability to quickly match candidates with the right positions.

Management is supportive and results-driven, offering constructive feedback and growth opportunities. The culture is collaborative, with a strong sense of teamwork and open communication, making it easy to share knowledge and succeed together.

The hardest part of the job is managing multiple competing priorities and tight deadlines, which can be stressful.

The most enjoyable part is helping candidates find meaningful roles, building long-term client relationships, and achieving a great work-life balance.

In Afimac, you start out as a Tactical Security Officer and will likely leave as one too.

That having been said. You get flown in, assigned a hotel room at no cost, pretty decent one too. You have a room mate who works the opposite shift, typically some working class stiff like you from some where else in the US. Don't worry about your stuff, 99.9% of these guys are just hard working men same as you. Pretty honest bunch.

You do your drug test, paperwork, assigned day or night shift. Your going to be watching union members on the strike line for anything dangerous. That's it. The kicker is the pay. Your making likely $10 or so an hour. BUT you work 7 days a week at 12 hours a day. So on average you pull 44 hours of overtime a week. this is basically around $4000 a month. No Joke. And your 12 hours off are yours. just make sure you get up for your shift meeting. That's it.

The only thing that is great about this job is the pay. It's $9/hr at 84hrs a week with $35 per diem.Management has literally said they dont care about their employees and were just bodies. We're easily replaceable and thats not cool. They know other strike company's and threaten you if you screw up to tell other companies NOT to hire you. They dont care about your sleep and its kind of easy to sleep on the job if you work nights. If you work days,well your in luck. Everything is made easy and you have no problems if you work days. Management needs to get their act together and tend to their employees needs and listen to them.I would not recommend this job to anyone til the management gets their act together. I personally am probaly not ever going back to this company.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The diversity is positive. We all have a contribution to offer.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Dealing with some of the workers who don't have a positive work ethic.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
It's always been all hands on deck for me. There are a few who don't think they are supposed to work hard...but we are supposed to be a team.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Being a manager...it's my job to make sure the people are taken care of as well as the client. Then make sure production requirements are met and the hotel is being maintained.

I have been on 2 assignments and each never went into active mode and we were basically getting paid to be at the Hotel for 2 weeks. Not a bad deal especially when the OT kicked in. Most of the guys did not venture out site seeing as I did and they were miserable after a week as one can imagine. This is a good Company to work for and I have never had any problems with the management, the pay, airline tickets etc. The only negative is that the assignments are few and far between because in this economy there are very few Unions going on strike and they always seem to negotiate a contract.

I've worked for this company since December, 2004...The management of the sites is very consistent. Pay is either correct or, if there are discrepancies, handled immediately. Pay is $11 to $14 per hour, depending on the position you hold, and the per diem is included on the paycheck ($35/day), which is paid out biweekly. Direct deposit is by form, and it starts from the second paycheck (a month). Travel to and from sites, hotel room, and use of a rental car on site, are paid for by clients. Urinalysis provided upon arrival, and uniform shirts are payroll deducted.

Hours can be long while on an active project, 12 hr days, 7 days a week with no days off during the ongoing project. 

This particular company DOES NOT offer an optional rotation out after 45 days as do the other similar companies. This means that if you leave before the project ends, you must pay for your own transport home. Whereas the other companies will pay for your transport home if you choose to rotate out after 45 days.
