Nexeo HR

I have worked for several staffing agencies and Nexeo is undoubtedly the worst.  Much worse than Labor Ready, the bottom feeders of the industry.  

I worked for about 2 weeks on the LDS temple in Ogden and all was well, paid per our agreement and on time.  In fact they even got me a raise.  I was relocating to SLC and had the Roy office contacted the SLC Nexeo office to let them know I was available.  The in house recruiter for a large Nexeo client called and put me to work. After 2 days she informed me I was being terminated because of my criminal back ground, something I disclosed in detail on my Nexeo application.  

Now it has been 3 weeks and no pay and only one returned call from Nexeo.  I have called them 7 times about my pay.  Each time I was promised a return call.  Now not even the office I originally hired on with, the Roy office,  will not return my calls.  I did receive one call back from the main office.  They acknowledged there was a problem with more than just my pay, whatever that means.  Today their response from their manager was he was not even aware I was working there.  No wonder sir, I never met you and you did not hire me, your recruiter did.  Now your recruiter's phone is disconnected.  I informed the home office it was disconnected and they said they could not inform me of her status with Nexeo. My last conversation with her, over 16 days ago, she informed me of some problems with Nexeo.  She stopped short of going into any details but.... well you connect the dots.  

Unfortunately, the labor protection lays in Utah really suck.  I am being forced to take action against the client I was working for.  That is unfortunate because they were great people to work for.  The problem is Nexeo, not their client.

The work says were structured with needed tasks which were implemented daily as well as room for any additional support time needed by the client. Overall my biggest compliment is that they had an open communication and direction management style. This meant everyone had a seat at the table and everyone felt supported in their work and it's value. Overall a great team atmosphere and a continuous improvement mindset which I learned quite a bit from. The hardest part of the job is being able to adapt with the needs of the business and the amount of influx that comes and goes as business needs change. Nexeo's internal team did step up and provide valuable manpower without hesitation which was something that meant a lot to me in the thick of it all when other companies sometimes take advantage of how hard they can push their employees. Nexeo HR made me feel like they were involved enough to see what we really needed without question and that was great. 

A typical day at work I would grind, weld, cut, etc. I learned a lot of new techniques and ways to go about doing some of the jobs. I also learned how to operate an oxycetaline bug o torch system. The hardest part was learning something new that I had never done before and the company expecting me to be able to do it right the very first time. But the management was always willing to go over everything with me and make sure that I was understanding the job the right way. I always get along with my coworkers whether there is something that bothers me about them or not. Your never going to be able to get along with everybody.

I loved working where I could help people succeed. But the company itself was more concerned about the clients needs and not the employee’s. Without the temp employees, companies would fall short to meet their demands. But some of those companies wouldn’t pay the employees for weeks at a time and nexeo forced THEIR employees to keep sending temps to those companies. I do t stand behind that! Many times we (as nexeo employees) would GIVE gas money to the temps so they could get to work because the companies we were staffing wouldn’t pay them. It’s NOT RIGHT!! And morally I couldn’t stand behind it. I got fired for speaking out about it.

Basically I was just picking & packing orders, I learned to find easier ways to mesmerize & remember numbers of aisles, & where most products belong. The mangers were very well involved with their workers, very hands on with everyone. The culture was great, such a friendly place to work. The hardest part of the job would just have to be getting everything down, but once you've done that, it becomes very easy & almost natural. I felt like my most enjoyable part would have to be just the fact of not having to deal with many people, more or so products.

What is the best part of working at the company?
None of it. Terrible company. They will fire you without any reasoning

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Having no control over if they want to fire you for no reason or not

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Terrible they value the jobs that take their clients over their temp staff and wont ask for any reasoning when the job doesnt need a temp worker anymore or not

1. Account all Employee, Send out reports, Update Spreadsheets, Send out emails. Record Productivity 

2. Send out invoice, Create data entry spreadsheets, Compile productivity averages, Update and Approve employee hours

3. Great Leadership, Management very informative.

4. Culture is very Strict, but happy employees, excited for the day, very fast paced environment, always changing. 

5. Accounting for everyone, Being everywhere at once
 
6. Helping people succeed

Working there is easy, its just very frustrating to stand in a single spot for 10 hours or so. I learned how to turn on and off a heating tunnel and pick up speed when packaging cans. the management is pretty good. the hardest part of a job, is standing in one spot for hours and very its very hot.

They usually have lots of different jobs to fit most everyone's needs. I have liked the assignments that I have accepted through them. They have been different than my usual work history and I have learned new things. Some jobs even are temp to hire. The staff is friendly, laid back and helpful.

Nexeo is a great place to progress, if you have the drive. They are willing to work with you to hit your goals and become an effective employee and career holder. 

The job takes dedication to be successful, and you get out of it what you put into it.
