The job itself is easy. I started at 9.25 an hour through onin staffing for Kasai. Working 6pm-4:30 am or later 5-6 nights a week. However I like my supervisor and plant manager but they are good at pushing good workers out the door. Been there since thanksgiving. Promised hire in as long as I was not red flagged for attendance or other issues.  But they lied. I was yellow formed and given a drug trust for hire in than very next day was told they couldn't hire me bc I had 4 points! 3 of which was due to weather conditions causing me to miss and promised to not being pointed. 2 for storms causing tree blocking on my road (I live in country) And 1 for snow and I live 30 miles away. The job is easy though. I put take on door and or inspect door. All plastic mostly so not to heavy for lifting. And I'm lucky to have a good supervisor that acknowledged our hard effort. They can't keep help and we are often doing jobs for 2 or more people and causing production to not be met. I rated 3 bc I can't be hired in due to lies. But good easy work.

I really enjoyed my job most of the time.  The manager was absolutely wonderful.  Excellent to work for her.  I learned several new things on the computer.  I'm pretty computer savvy but still learned some new things.  Most of the customers were nice except for a couple of rude ones, but that goes with any job. I enjoyed helping the customers update their accounts, especially the ones that knew absolutely nothing about a computer!  

Our office was either way too busy or just nothing to do.  That was one thing I didn't like cause I like to stay busy, the day goes by faster.  

The main thing I didn't like was, even though I worked 40 hours a week, I wasn't considered full time. Therefore, you didn't get paid holidays, vacation time etc. You have to work a long time, maybe years to be considered full time.  That was my main complaint.

I didn't quit.  I was let go due to the corona virus because it got so slow. I hope to draw unemployment, don't know if I will get called back to work or not.

A typical day at work depends on where this agency sends you. If sent to the nearest plant, it is quite convenient. I've learned to have excellent time management skills, and to use communication skills. Management is quite accommodating and understanding to the employees. My co-workers at the plant I've been assigned to for three years now are quite enjoyable to work with. The hardest part of the job is the lack of job security and advancement in each plant. You are not guaranteed consecutive working schedules, and being hired as a full-time employee for the individuals companies is unknown. Most employees spent three to six years for advancement, while others receive advancement within weeks without following company policies. However, the company pays good and the people are fantastic to work with.

I will never work for this company again. They didn't tell the truth about how many hours I would be working. They made it sound like it would be 36-40 hours per week with some overtime. Okay, fair enough. What I got instead was being scheduled for 72-84 hours a week. If they had been honest, I would've known not to have taken that job because that was more than I could physically handle. There was no need to be deceitful and waste mine and everyone else's time.

Another reviewer has said that this company's mode of business seems to be to lie to get them in the door, work them until they drop, then replace them. That sums up my experience with them. I've worked for several temporary services and Hamilton-Ryker is easily the worst I've worked for.

Calling on mostly industrial companies and clerical businesses to have them hire our firm to send them people for placement. They did not have a large staff so when I sold the contracts I also had to screen applicants and find the people to fill the positions so that I wouldn't lose the accounts I worked so hard to sell. Executives were growing the company and doing well while local management was really trying in an economy where it was hard to find people to go to work. The hardest part was wearing a lot of different hats but my favorite part was dealing with so many different industries.

Its hard to say what a typical day was at MTD. there alomst 100 people worked on the line and you end up learning to do a variety of jobs noone is assigned any certain place on the line.this means learning to use a variety of air tools screw guns impact wrenches and such. Managemnt employees were always nice and helpful whenever possible. I got to work around so many different types of people. I got along with the people very well. There was nothing I did not like about MTD the most enjoyable part was the days that went quick the line moved no stopping the line those are good days in my opinion

I would go to work at night at 4 o'clock and would get off anywhere from 12:30 am to 3 am. 

I was the bandier for the company. I would band pallets and then would put bleach on them.

I learned my health is more important cause the bleach hurt my lungs and my breathing.

The management didn't care how things looked as long as we got our quota.

The culture there was hard. Lots of fights, flirting and some bad language and things that needed to be in a bedroom not a work place.

The hardest thing I dealt with was the bleach smell. It burned my lungs and I have really bad asthma.

Nothing was enjoyable.

I worked directly for the company, my manager was horrible, she lied, kept drama going in the office, talked about each employee to other employees behind their back, treated the associates looking for jobs with disrespect, stayed gone from the office while others did her job,  and when something was not done right she blamed it on her employees, among many many other things. I tried to let someone know what was going on and they never did anything about it. Corporate never cared about anything the lower employees had to say, they gossiped too. Do not work here!

Hamilton Ryker handled this work assignment very efficiently and very effective. HTS Mixing at TItan Tire has been a new startup llc in Custom Mixing dept. at Titan Tire. Good Leadership and a positive sense of direction, thats exceeding the demands of Titan Tire. I don't totally agree withe the mgmt philosophy of leaning as you go , it was working. The hardest part of the job was following job assignments that didn't make sense based on my previous knowledge in the rubber industry. The most enjoyable part of the job was the people, the little things they did and said

As an intern, then an administrative assistant, and then a staffing coordinator, it was an extremely fast paced environment.  There was a lot movement between introducing prospective employees, to potential employees, and then moving said employees into the workplace.  
It was an upbeat work environment; accepted diversity in employee choices; and honest staff.  Hardest part of the job as an admin was keeping up with the paperwork daily while transitioning into a staffing coordinator position.  Most enjoyable part of my day was going with new employees into factory work places and feeling justified in helping individuals find work.
