Gillmann-Services

I went through Gillmann Services and got a job doing mine maintenance. We worked 12 hours a day for 2 weeks, then took 2 days off. 6am -6pm. It was a brutal schedule considering the work involved (welding, torching, carrying sheets of steel, repairing steel beams, roofs, leaks, etc) it's physically demanding and most of the maintenance work took place inside the coal processing plant, so you are slugging around in water all day (unless you lucked up and got on a mines with perfect pumps). Lunch was 30min, that's the only time you really stop working or get to sit down. The pay starting was $14hr but with overtime it was over $1,000 a week with about $1-$2 pay raise every 2-3 months. Also, the jobs can be anywhere throughout the state or surrounding states. Sometimes you have to stay in a motel for months to complete jobs bad see your family on the weekend. The company pays per diem and hotel expenses for travelling. The guys I worked with were good people trying to make an honest living, but if you aren't in desperate need of a job, then it's the smart decision to stick to what you are doing. Go to college or something. I left there and pay $1,000 less every month and it was worth it. I now stand inside a store fixing and troubleshooting cell phones for $16hr at 40hrs a week with 2 days off per week. Like I said, if you can afford to make a little less money for something you are comfortable doing, then do that instead. This job is for people who eat, breathe, and sleep work. It's not for everyone.

I’ve worked for a few different temp agencies before, never had much luck and had a lot of problems from them. Rather it was lack of work or poor management, and a lot of the time they just throw you into the first job that comes available. I’ve also worked in a couple of different unions and have had most of the same issues as with the other temp agencies. GSI is not like that. It’s a temping agency for skilled tradesmen and craftworkers. I’ve only been with them for a short period of time and they’ve already taken better care of me than any other company I’ve previously worked for. They paid for my hotel for the first two weeks and after only two days, gave me an advancement from my paycheck to make sure I could get to work and afford to eat. Gilman doesn’t treat you like another number on the payroll, they treat you the way you deserve to be treated. 10/10

Worked for this company multiple times, probably the best agency at placing people and keeping them a steady income, most jobs I worked lasted 4 -6 months and they always hustled to keep you at work somewhere. Plus I hit a hard time and those guys helped me out when they didn't have to, I mean it was also beneficial for them as their help allowed me to continue to work, but they just flat out didn't have to do that but they did. Class act group out there in Beckley WV.

It started out great, after a few months things got extremely scattered no one really knew what was going on. Each day I was worried about whether or not we would be working the next day. Pay was decent for me because I am a new welder but there were welders that we’re making the same as me while others through different agencies were making $10. More an hour and their experience was definitely of equal value or more.

It was nice to work for a company that treated me like a professional. They provided all the necessary information to get started, and they let me do the rest.  For me that's perfect, as I'm a very experienced electrician and need no hand holding.  Compensation was very generous, compared to any local contractors here in the Orlando area.  My only complaint is I need more work from them!  But Gillmann can't control if the customer cancels a project.  I look forward to working with them soon!

I've been with Gillmann for nine years, and in that time, I've been cross-trained in every aspect of the daily workings of the office and the staffing industry as a whole. I started as an office admin and am now an Account Manager.
