Lofton Staffing Services

Opportunities exist to explore different employers.  However, do not expect Lofton to consider you for available full-time/permanent jobs that are posted on the job board (especially if you are on a temporary assignment).  The only good thing is that you may be presented with an opportunity with an employer that you probably would have never applied to had you seen the job posting anywhere else.  If you are on a temporary or temp-to-hire job and are selected for a permanent position by the employer then you can pretty much forget it!!!  Lofton makes it relatively impossible for the employer to buy you out so you basically have to wait 500+ day (3 mos) before you can avoid the buyout policy (YES, LOFTON HAS TO MAKE THEIR MONEY OFF YOU EITHER WAY THE CUT GOES, buy out or 3mos).  This would not be a problem if Lofton provided you with a decent/competitive salary based on your qualifications and work history.  But they would rather low ball you instead and profit all of the money.  I get they have to make their money somehow, but provide a decent salary.  Again, it's great if you wish to seek employment with agencies you may have otherwise overlooked or if you don't wish to do the leg work yourself.  Just don't expect to be paid what you're worth.  Not sure if this is the case with any other staffing company.

This company could care less about loyalty.  My friend  worked here 21 years and was let because he chose his health during the pandemic over working in unsafe areas. He never took a vacation nor was he informed that he had any hours to take a vacation.  He asked about it  and they told him they didn't offer any. I worked here for 5 months and almost missed a paycheck for the last week I worked. I contacted payroll and they told me the the client didn't submit anything and they hung up. I went to the client and inquired about my check and they admitted they were at fault and apologized for the inconvenience. Lofton called me 30 minutes later and said the client submitted the hours and my check was ready.  When I arrived I was told by that supervisor wanted to see me before I left. She told me to never contact a client about my check, contact Lofton and they would handle it. I said well when I called your pregnant receptionist said I didn't have anything there and hung up in my face. Train her in customer service and situations like this can be avoided.

I took this position after being out of an office environment for quite some time. I loved the fact there always something to do. Lofton's phones were constantly ringing and I was responsible for directing all calls.

I learned that I was quite capable of multi-tasking and loved to work under pressure. I worked under a lady who had high expectations, but was also very concerned that we were all enjoying our daily responsibilities. She would recognize when you were doing well with the work that was given and gave more responsibility when you could manage it.

Lofton Staffing was a family-owned business and liked everyone to feel a part of that family. I worked with some awesome people and formed friendships that are, still this day, priceless.

There was nothing I would consider hard about working for Lofton. The most enjoyable part of my job was dealing with the public.

A typical day at work usually entails performing duties I have performed in previous job positions. 

I enjoy working in various work environments. I've learned that different workplaces have different needs and priorities.

The Lofton staff is very professional and supportive of their employee's needs.

Workplace culture has changed somewhat since I started back in the late 70's. Large corporations do not provide as much job security and focus more on profit and productivity.

I have not personally faced any major challenges on the jobs assigned. 

The most enjoyable part of part-time and temp assignments is the flexibility in scheduling, meeting new people, and working at different locations. Occasionally there's a job that focuses on having fun!

The staffing industry is loaded with various styles of sales. It allows one the autonomy of managing their own territory, with the aspect of having a team of employees to aid your efforts. Within the field of service, you are exposed to various types of industry, that broadens ones' scope of the vastness of what makes our society operate. The most enjoyable part of the job, is learning the different environments, and being introduced to various types of people. The most difficult aspect is people are the most unpredictable commodity. One can only take another for face value and their word. Outside of the that, the industry is rewarding, as you have a direct impact on organizational hires, and also supplying other with employment.

A typical day at my job is slow and easy. I work overnight and not much happens unless there's a shut down. I check trucks in and visitors in the gated plant. My co-workers are all easy going professional people. We come in ready to work with upbeat spirits, our clients love us. They can talk to us about anything. I think its great to lend an ear because you give your clients a feel of security and comfort.. It can be all about business but I feel there's nothing wrong with giving an extra hand with things. The hardest part of my job is when there's so much going on, and everyone is pulling you in different direction and your trying your hardest to get it done. It seem like forever but it gets done with patients. The most enjoyable part of my job is looking at the smiling faces when I helped them with something they have been struggling with.

The place I was put at, I loved and worked at that spot for almost a year before they transfered me to a different location with out an warning or reason. Loftons inner office is so unorganized with everything, from uscheduling to pay checks. My co-workers were ok, I didnt get to really see them as much because it was a one man post. The hardest part of working for lofton is that management was never there when you needed them. The most enjoyable part for me is when they put me at my first location and I fell in love with the company and its employees and customer. I knew every customers name and enjoyed my time there. But in fairness if I had to go back I would, I just need them to get better on communicating with there employees.

During my time at the business things were great. I was able to learn about the second day operations in banking and what it all entailed. The ins and outs and the processing time helped me to understand the importance of the positions. It has instilled in me a greater respect for those who work in the field. The job was fairly easy once you were trained in the various systems and got in tune with the pace you should be working to achieve desired results. Management was great and the office culture was too.The only difficult part for me was the commute. Bouncing on the road for a total of 4 hours round trip by public bus is no fun but the job helped to pay my bills.

I have been with Lofton Staffing Service for almost a year now, in that time I have been presented with many opportunities with jobs anywhere from a one day job assignment to possible long term career opportunity. My availability is open to any day and anytime, Monday - Sunday. Lofton is the BEST in staffing service and I would recommend anyone to register and apply with them. I am a husband and a father of three beautiful children, I have to find the right job to make enough to support my family and with Lofton I am giving that opportunity. Lofton has the nicest people who are so willing to help and I won't go with anyone else.
