Phillips Staffing

A good place to get a taste of what staffing is like,  and gain experience, but not somewhere I would recommend staying. There are no benefits to working here (remote/hybrid, 401k options, the insurance is not good), and the pay is not great for what is being asked. Phillips does try to be a family environment, but can be inflexible in assisting with matters like needing time away or needing to work from home. in my opinion, needs to get with times and allow a hybrid schedule for employees. 

It seems some in management/upper level are able to bend rules that others can't (leaving early, working from home, not being responsive). can be hard to get a response from some corporate level people due to not being at work/working from home/laziness? some at corporate take every friday off as a sick day, and the ones who go in love to leave early, while expecting others in the company to remain at work every day all day. upper management pushes tasks down to mid-level folks a lot of times. was sometimes asked to work through lunch/after hours/on weekends without much of an incentive to do so. a place with favoritism (towards employees and certain clients), there is room to grow within the company, but only if you are liked by peers--and seems like this is to avoid doing a thorough job search rather than to reward hard work and performance. days are extremely repetitive with menial tasks. job security is very strong with this company.

A typical day at work, Fixing any machines which had problems occur, Insuring that finished products were within quality specifications, Filing paperwork and parameters on finished products, Sweating and getting dirty. I learned Pneumatics and hydraulics on an industrial scale, I've learned the whole process of Blow Molding and the way extrusions work, As well as working with a team which I highly enjoyed. Management was great, they allowed us to take control of certain situations and gave us the freedom to do whatever it took to keep quality products flowing as long as we abided by safety regulations. Co-workers and I shared the same mindset which is work and get the job done which ultimately led to a focused shift who was dedicated to there work. The Job became more challenging once we became understaffed, after losing a few fellow technicians, there load was placed upon us which turned out to be tough at times. The most enjoyable part of the job was learning and finding new ways to solve mechanical issues, Solving long-occurring issues was the most joyful part of the Job.   

If you are interested in working in HR or Staffing as a profession, Phillips Staffing is a good local company to work for. You can develop contacts, you have the opportunity to travel to local clients on a regular basis, and they encourage their staffing members to build relationships with the management of their client companies. 
Management are hands-off and expect you to get your work done. They are there if you need them, but are not micro-managers. The workplace at my office is generally relaxed. The hardest part of the job is dealing with client issues that are out of your control. The enjoyable part to me is developing relationships and getting the opportunity to tour multiple facilities and industries on a regular basis to see how other companies work and manufacture their product.

A typical day at work for me is ever-changing and yet routine at the same time. I embrace the demands that come with the staffing industry or any industry that surrounds the human resources department. There is not a day that goes by that I don't have the opportunity to help place someone into a position to better position themselves in the world around them. An excellent feeling comes from such deliverance. Unfortunately, along with the job title comes the responsibility of ending assignments as well. I consider myself to be just as responsible and courteous on this end of the spectrum. Typical office duties ensue daily to include the use of email, Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, completion of payroll, monitoring of hours, training seminars and so forth.

I liked working for Phillips, but while employed with them, I went through to many lay-offs. I did learn a lot while working at Imperial Die Casting, I had just stated working on CNC machines, and wish I could have obtained more experience than what I did. Phillips seems to lay people off, before they are able to get hired in through a company. I had already taken my physical for the company, when they decided to lay me off. They had done this to me in the past also, and called me back to the same plant within three days. I want a job where I can grow and advance within the company, I want job security where I am employed in the future.

I worked at a Caterpillar plant in Fountain Inn.
I learned how to perform button-up on diesel engines before they enter the hot test booth.
Most management that I spoke to was very nice and professional.
My co-workers were temps at Caterpillar. During the time that I worked there, Caterpillar held mass layoffs, and Phillips was not finding these many of these temps new work.
The hardest part of the job was that our lifting crane was broken the entire time I worked there, and according to a co-worker, it had never worked in the 3 years he had been there. This led to us both ending up with strained backs shortly before the plant closed down and outsourced to Texas.
The most enjoyable part of the job was sending out completed engines.

Competitive, enjoyable, productive, fun co-workers. The hardest part of either of my jobs were the layaway part with Wal-Mart it was hard yet fun, climbing up on the ladders, the hardest part was lifting the heavy boxes. The other enjoyable part of all of my jobs were working with the customers! The thing I hate more than anything about any of my background is that I never got to take my state board for all the hard work that I accomplished in my Nursing Assistant course. Also, the fact that I was cheated out of my last three months of my Medical Assistatant course that I went to school for and also worked so hard for, for the entire two years only to have it all taken away from me.

(That I got to meet new people that I never seen before)
(That they made different oil not only oil but lotion and perfume hand sanitizer all kind of different thing.
(The management was what i need to been that make that you stay busy and that what i like about working at grace management grouping.
(The co-workers greeting me with a smile and the what people is looking for how they care.And the co-workers that I work with was great to work around very spiritual and I like that.
(When they lay me off that was the hardest part because i love that job that job is the best job i every had that i can say that the people was good to me.
(How we laugh but still make sure we got our job done.

A meeting was held at the beginning of the shift to let us know the volume of sales. I enjoyed the job because you really work at your own pace. I read orders off of the computer mounted on my lift. I retrieved customer orders and picked items from assigned locations. Items were scanned for the style number as well as the correct quantity. Items were loaded on pallet and taken to the shipping dock.
