First Assured Quality Systems

I thought it would be a great company to work with but the only good thing is the pay . There is no training and no job security you are just seen as a temp or contractor and the a actual company you work for can have you fired for any reason under the sun AQS does not stand up for their employees or advacate for them they just send you a text randomly that "your employment with AQS has been terminated please exit the building". You are set up to fail. Nobody stays theres new people every day that speaks volumes if the company I thought they would leave on there own but now i think that they just get fired for whatever reason. I was told by the person i report to when i started that the actual conpany we inspect for could have you fired at anytime for anything that he let go of 10 people cause they didnt like them.

This was the worst decision I had ever made.   I regret that I wanted to work for such a terrible company.   The company is micro managed by upper management in Texas.   The communication is absolutely poor!  Management gives you a false sense of support and then throws you under the bus.   If you are seeking any correspondence or seek answers you can forget it.   This was the most unorganized, unprofessional, and unethical company that I have ever witnessed in my years of leadership.  The customers joke about how you get what you pay for and this is the only reason they continue using them.  The inspectors have no set schedule and the good workers are easily lost due to consistent lack of work.   Upper management has no accountability and needs to clean house.  I would recommend going anywhere before you waste your time.  You do not want any affiliation with this company.   Glad that I left this disaster. 

Started off great, given opportunity to learn and work at least 10 hrs a day. Then work came to a sudden slow down. Struggled to get 40 hrs in a 6 day work week, not good since people on unemployment were making more money than I.  My last 4 days I worked 17.5 hrs.  They just had too many people for the work available, and being moved into another person work station was not the solution.  Robbing Peter to pay Paul is never a good solution.  Overall not a bad Company, just need Team leaders who are proactive not reactive. Not enough stable work Stations to offer 50 to 60 hr work weeks which is what you need to make a decent pay check.

If you are looking for a place to grow, this is not it unless you kiss the head manager’s butt. They are very judgmental, especially toward second chance program. They hire these individuals for a “second chance” and treat them as if they are a disease. Watching from the office setting part and listening to how managers and the owner talks to them is absurd. The pay is always messed up and if you work over they say you didn’t and won’t pay you but what they scheduled you even if they asked you to stay over. This company does not care about its employees but only their growth with Toyota and Volkswagen.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Coworkers are the only plus to this position. The company does not hire full-time employees. Once hired you are on call. You only work when they need you. That may be for a week then you dont work for a month. Then you might get a couple days then on work for two weeks. Not a reliable job.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
When you will get to go to work

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Not good at all. Toyota is going to be Toyota.  But AQS  is the worst employer I have ever had.

I was an quality inspector for the fist time and my supervisor was the absolute best at showing me and teaching me exactly how to do my job. And I caught on quickly the assignment lasted a few months and because we are only contractor we did not have work for a while and when work picked back up I couldn't go back due to my pregnancy. But would love to work with them again and recommend them to any one who needs a job and likes that type of work.

A typical day at work does not exist. It could be a slow day or a fast-pased day depending on the need of our customers.
Learned to work with difficult people.
Hardest part of the job is training and retraining the same group of  inspectors on the same job for two or more weeks.
The most enjoyable part is working with inspectors who are willing to learn and advance.

disorganized, bad management, operations is a messy department, cliquish, and they do everything that doesn't make sense instead of what does 

The owners were of great character, but seemed a bit detached from knowing what was going on in operations, and recruitment, which could of been 2 departments to really drive revenue, if done the right way 

Scheduled at 6am but when I showed up for work they told me I was off since there was no materials. Several current employees  informed me that always happens even when the manager confirmed via text your scheduled the day before. Supervisors were advertising theres open positions for hire but all sorts are full or closed

They have no work and they are unorganized and unprofessional you can’t pay bills if you work for them and when you’re shift is canceled they won’t tell you even if you text them they will not tell you and you end going to work only to find out that the shift is canceled don’t waste your time with this so called job!!!!
