Inova-Staffing-Services

This review is not only for Inova but it's partner company located in the same building Regency Technologies which they staff most or all of their jobs for. This job is a temporary one that is a means to an end. The turnover rate is high and most people, myself included, stick around out of desperation until they find literally anything better. This is not a place to build a career or somewhere that most people would enjoy working or get any fulfillment. The pay rate is not abysmally low, yet sits ever so slightly above (15/hr-18/hr) what you might make working a fast food or retail job, yet is not high enough to truly make an adequate living off of. Upon arrival, you are greeted with a culture of fear by management and coworkers with the insistence that that quantity and speed are prioritized over quality and that if you can't keep up, you will have to answer to management. Most of your day to day coworkers are very nice and yet management tends to micromanage and give passive aggressive sentiment out of fear of themselves being reprimanded. Management will, while being colocated within 50 feet of you, send someone else to give you a talking to if you walk away from your area to speak with someone else for more than 5 minutes or clock into work more than 2 minutes late. The warehouse, while adequately circulated with fans, is not air conditioned through the summer or any time of the year, unlike other facilities within the same company. This is not the worst job you could ever have, but I would urge managers and the hiring/recruiting team to breathe a deep breath and stop taking yourselves and the job so seriously all the time. You are managers at what essentially amounts to a sweatshop and most of the employees are hard workers by default who do not need a talking to after each and every minor infraction.

Quick and easy to get hired.

This position states you start at 7am, but you MUST be clocked in BEFORE 6:45 or else you are considered LATE. There is typically a line to clock in and a lengthy security process before and after your shift (and twice during your 30 minute lunch if you take one). This security check ranges from 2 minutes to 5 minutes depending on the circumstances. 

You don't have enough time to get food and eat during lunch because of the security check, so plan on bringing food.

You are NOT allowed to take in any personal devices like smart phones or smart watches because they supposedly could somehow get recycled and they don't know if it's yours or not even though they could simply check the phone number associated with the device to verify it's YOUR phone number. 
Considering this, management sits on their personal phones all day watching videos, making personal phone calls and buying things online, while you work hard auditing 80-100 laptops daily to make much, much less than them.

If you have any sort of medical condition, consider the nature of this job. It is a dirty, dusty warehouse. There is metal dust everywhere in the facility, including the IT area. If you have any lung conditions, this will strongly effect you. 
At the end of the work day, you must clean up your work space, when doing this, you can take a magnet and run it along the ground where you've had your feet all day and pick up plenty of metal dust.
It's not a problem for healthy people, but if you have a lung condition/disease, my recommendation is to NOT take this position. Do your own research on metal dust. If it does become a major health problem, effecting your attendance at all, they will terminate you.

The job itself is fine, tedious, but fulfilling.

Only pros are decent pay and some of your coworkers are really cool people.

A supportive, collaborative team with leadership that actually cares about it's people.  Weekly culture groups to set professional and personal goals that each member of the team hold you accountable for.  The Owner/CEO also takes time out of his schedule for these pairings...I have NEVER seen this from a CEO.  I'm so grateful and appreciative of the integrity, morale, support and opportunity to have worked with this company.

I just recently started working for Inova Staffing temporarily & I was immediately accepted. Everyone is friendly and gave me insight from the managers, security, and my fellow coworkers. I immediately felt a connection & a purpose for being there unlike my past jobs. My work is recognized & appreciated daily and that’s what makes me wear my title proudly.

Make you fill out extensive forms. Call you for interviews but take days to respond. Want you to interview multiple times, takes forever to talk to anyone or complete anything. Waste of your time. Want to know if you are “qualified” for basic positions. I’ve seen the people at these jobs, they are not qualified to operate a vehicle. Takes too long and you feel like you have to stay because you took forever to get the job. 

If you got hired prepared for it, you can't take any electronic device inside the work place. Or they take it for you an you'll never see the device again. It's a dirty place, always have to use a mask if your care about your health, the pay wasn't bad but no too Good, you have to prepare about 60 + laptops to resellers, that is a lot (I got injured multiple times)

They never help me, I was arranged by people there and nobody did anything. Super hostile place to work. Super hostile they call you to the office for no reason. I start a depression because that job. I ended quitting because people was bad whit me, if you are different this people will  trade you like garbage. 

Recruiters just throw every job they have at you weather your qualified or not and waste your time. They say they are working on it but never actually send you anywhere and offer you jobs on the wrong shift and for bare minimum pay. 

Good environment where you can go in and do your job and leave very nice people and understanding management team. Interview  process was straightforward and simple. They give you a tour around the job site to make sure it's best fit for you and show you the environment and climate you will be working in. 

Great people, but the “assigned” job is sketchy. I was the last of my hiring group, but everyone was terminated from their assignment before reaching the 6th month period. The assigned management/company is often sketchy when it comes to employee retention, and selectively favors members.
