Pro Resources Staffing Services

I have never worked a job where I legitimately wake up every morning excited to come to work, working here at Pro Resources is the very first for me. I don't consider it work if you enjoy doing it. I love helping others and getting people back on their feet. I love all of my co-workers and my manager is incredible. We work very hard to ensure that we place all applicants in a timely yet efficient manner. I couldn't be anymore thankful to be such a value team asset to the company and I can't wait to see how my career progresses here at Pro.

I'd like to voice my opinion on a few things though, I honestly feel Pro could use some serious technology updates. Our current phones don't have caller ID so when calls are lost or we forgot to update a number in Avionte we can go back and look at caller ID and we can look at missed calls in the morning. Also, our email is a little outdated. I feel like sometimes there is a HUGE communication barrier between staff. We have offices all over northern Indiana, we have some offices that don't have managers there all day everyday. Sometimes we are in desperate need of assistant right away. I firmly think we would benefit SO much from using some sort of IMing system between all of the offices. We'd be able to provide consistent feedback, get immediate answer, possibly video conference calls from office to office, get to know everyone better from direct communication. Emails are easily over looks and phone calls can easily be ignored. Our printer, copier and fax machine is so outdated, it hardly ever works right. It's huge clunky, loud and old. If all offices had a more up to date printer, we wouldn't have to ask for so many copied from corporate the few times we have corporate meetings, we'd be able to do our own instead.

Its hard to say anything good about general labor temporary work. The idea is to get a surplus of people/labor scrapping for a dollar. use that desperation to drive them to work anything you give them. this might not be a bad thing if your just wanting for a little money while looking for something real but In the long run you give away alot of time that could be spend learning or developing skills for a career. This is obviously not true for people with skills who are looking to get into a company via temp work but the majority of people are really wasting time and would be much better off working retail or even fast food. the reason temp work is so damaging to the labor worker is this , when you work for a temp that temp will only use you for as long as the client needs you but as soon as your not needed your out and sometime dropped from the temp service as well as the job. when your not needed you sit and wait or "look for a real job" but mostly wait for the next assignment. the entire time your not employed and this will show when you list the tepm as a past employer. those gaps  over years can add up to years. jumping from temp job to temp job is just not something any person should do. you might wake up at 25-30 and realize your at the same place you started at 18 your still unskilled.

Overall, Pro Resources is a company of integrity and upholds a high standard in their industry.  There is no typical day in staffing, but at Pro Resources you can count on the fact that, no matter what comes your way during the day, you have a great team to support you and help you along the way.  Pro Resources has invested a lot into training and development as well as technological advances to streamline processes and make the overall applicant and employee experience less stressful.  Pro Resources is a private family owned company and offers its employees an open and inviting atmosphere to share ideas and collaborate.  I feel at home at Pro Resources and know that management has the best interests of their employees in mind when making strategic business decisions.  Over the years, Pro Resources has made an impact in the communities it serves through charitable donations and acts of service.  This goes hand in hand with our family feel and is indicative of a company that cares.

I simply love my job, and I love Pro Resources.  Nobody believes me when I tell them how great the owner treats his employees.  We are truly one big family, stretched across the state of Indiana.

How many people can say that their job is actually their passion?  Not many, but I can honestly say that I'm passionate about my job at Pro Resources.  My career here has been both fulfilling and rewarding.  It gives me great pleasure to know that we are making a difference in the lives of those in our communities.  I've been here long enough to have some of the associates I've previously found employment for, for them to bring their kids to Pro Resources as soon as they turn 18 so that we can assist them as well.  It makes me feel proud to know that they were that impressed with Pro Resources.

Pro Resources believes in giving back to the community and encourages each of our staff members to do the same.  We enjoy being involved in community activities and volunteering our time to help others.

If you are looking for a job you can turn into a fulfilling career, then Pro Resources is the company for you.

I have worked for Pro Resources for a number of years and  I stay because of the work culture. It is family orientated and you feel like a name not a number. Still privately owned and growing, but still small enough that decisions can be made quickly without a bunch of "red tape" to get through.
The management cares about the employees and the most enjoyable part of the job is the relationships you build with customers and coworkers.
It is a stressful job, but everyday is different. The variety of people you meet, the different customers you interact with, and the problem solving skills you use on a daily basis keep it interesting and fresh.

I would say the hardest part of the job is adjusting to the pace of staffing and understanding that your job is never finished at the end of the day, it carries over to the next day. That is an adjustment for a lot of new employees; however, at the end of the day it is gratifying to find employment for candidates and meet your customers expectations.

My typical work day was to pack shelf kits and weigh them. I had to tape the bottom of the box and when the shelf kits was packed; I had to tape the top, weigh it, and then put a label on it. I had to put the weight on it along with my initials right beside it. I learned how to be a more faster worker by instead of packing two boxes, I packed one instead. Management was really good and paid attention to coworkers. When something needed addressed or explained better, they did it. My co-workers was average. Some easily to get along with and some not. The hardest part of my job was trying to keep up with the line at a speed of 1 minute to get 320 units off the line. The enjoyable part was when a few co-workers did things like make faces or  we talked to make a better day.

I work for Pro Resources at a production company that is fairly close to home. I arrive at work, have a daily production meeting and then go to my area. Being on 2nd shift, the co workers are like family and the job is as enjoyable or difficult as you want to make it. We work an 8 Hr. shift with no weekends so you can plan outside activities around the schedule. Pay is $9.50 with a shift premium of 0.65. There is no job security or benefits such as paid time off or personal days. Management is hands off and I only speak with them if I call the office. Your background and experience mean nothing to them. You are just a warm body to do entry level work.

First, there are better, and worse, places to work. The pay is very competitive but many times management will leave you scratching your head like, "what the ...?" 

Depending on the department you may have voluntary or mandatory overtime.

The on site Health Clinic is a plus as well as a few other perks 

One of the big negatives is mandated to do "Quick Kaizans". These are ways to save the company money and you have to do them or risk being fired. 

No way I would drive over an hour to work here as many of these prior posters suggest they do (unless they are management).

As you may get assigned a job very fast it might not always be the one you want, and in that case they say you have to not be working at the place you are currently working on, so you have to quit or get fired, then they ask why you quit and its a hassle.  Are they worth it? if you need a job yesterday yes, they really are.  Just don't forget, that you are a temp yes but don't let bosses at jobs treat you badly reporting them is the only way to stop them, yes you may think your one report didn't do anything, but when you and this guy and that girl make the same reports on the same person, then that's a case.  Don't think just because that guy got a slap on the wrist that its not worth it.

i would have fun at work. i would have everyone smiling, when i got laid off and i returned to give one lady a ride home i had alot of people tell me they miss me being there i loved my job and the people i worked with.

there wasnt really a hard part to the job, they teach everyone to there level and let you find the easiest way to do something

i learned so much from there i am not sure what to say on here

the most enjoyable part was just being around my co workers and knowing that no matter what kind of day they begin with by the end of the day i had them in a better mood without even trying
