Tech USA

System One offers a false sense of security. 
To begin, the interview process alone took about two months. 
Their positions are temp to perm. However, it seems that when it is time to give people the pay increase they tell you you will get after 90 days, they rather just let people go. The job itself was not bad. But when you have no valid reason as to why you are letting someone go that strains, hurts and affects a person. 
I would not recommend this company to anyone. You are temporary help, all your hard work will go out the window unappreciated.
Mind you, this is NOT an internship. 
You will do your very best,  absolute best and you can go above and beyond. That still won't secure you. When the time comes for you to go on permanent they will play dumb, ignore emails, calls , texts and then hit you with a call to let you go. 
The most frustrating part about the whole thing is that it wont be from the people who you work with directly. It will be from upper supervisors who you never even worked with directly. 
I am college student who has worked since I was 16 years old. 
I am trying to build my resume and experience. Everything that I do wether it is work, school, family I pour my heart into. I give it my absolute best.
 This company truly shattered me. They made me question my worth and it took a minute for me to lift myself back up. Not to mention, I constantly worked off the clock answering calls, emails, texts from employees and technicians.
None of this was appreciated.
At system one you are just another number. 

this is a temp service that should go out of business , for starters when they first put me on an assignment at (then freshstart bakeries) it was ok . i was getting o.t. all the time . when i realized i wasnt getting anywhere doing this i uncovered mor bad things . i wasnt the only one to constantly get called upon for overtime but i was a major player . then when i finally needed it it wasnt available . then instead of giving a raise when it should have been due it was based on performance which of course even the star players couldnt even achieve this . then they institued a "social media policy " to where you go on facebook and say anything derogitory about system one or your assigned location you will get terminated . this was the what got me canned as i was joking with some one on facebook and it had got taken out of context and i got fired . however this job did have its perks i got to learn many different positions during the year that i was there got to meet many interesting people . the hardest part of the job was doing 12 hour shifts and dealing with other peoples negitave attitudes .

A typical day consists of providing any number of mechanical inspections for incoming material, in-process projects, and completed projects.
Throughout my employment, I've learned to further interpret mechanical drawings, including GD&T and welding symbolism.
As an inspector, there is a considerable amount of interaction with management from each department within the manufacturing shop, including engineering, welding, quality assurance, and production. This interaction is vital to the fabrication process, ensuring that any discrepancy or nonconformance is adequately addressed in a timely manner.
I account for one of approximately forty inspectors--both mechanical and NDE--that operate within the quality control department. Overall, there are more than 350 workers and staff that my department interacts with on a daily basis. 
In my opinion, the most challenging part of this job is also the most enjoyable: Providing inspections for a constant influx of new material and assemblies. As we continue to take on new projects, we are challenged with any number of issues, including discrepancies with material documentation, drawing deviations, lack of workmanship, etc.

First job out of college - taught me a lot about sales, marketing, etc, but I would not recommend working with this company. First of all, they are on a draw-basis, which means every paycheck you get, you have to pay them back by placing candidates in jobs, and the draw accrues and counts against you (so you basically never get any commission). Incredibly sales focused and numbers driven, micromanages your calls every hour. Pretty much no work/life balance - if you aren't at the office from 6am - 9pm, you're looked upon as if you don't WANT to be successful. The CEO and execs come often and criticize the team. Throughout the company, you're told what you need to do better. I have never once received a compliment or praise from anything I've done - only reprimanding of what I didn't do or what I did wrong. Also, the office manager makes jokes about roofie-ing coworkers and strangers, so that isn't the best.

Every day was beyond stressful because I never knew if that was the day I was being fired. I've cried numerous times while working at this company.

My coworkers were cool though.

Applied through indeed. Received a phone call and email regarding a position and time and date I would have my phone interview. 
Stayed by my phone the entire day, no phone call. Then hours later received a phone call from system one asking about my interview, I laughed in the inside cause I never had one, I told the recruiter no one called me and the recruiter stated how he was so embarrassed and would look into it and call me back. Never called back, I followed up with him shortly after and he had the nerve to tell me that who ever he spoke with said they called me twice and never called me at all period. And that the company said they will not work with me nor give me a chance. How dare this happen. I am not the type to pass opportunities like this, not only do I have the experience and knowledge on this position but I am very dedicated and passionate about my job(s). This was to good to begin with. I’ve missed out on a few offers thinking this would turn out to be something that I can actually get in my feet again but it was a waste of time and effort. I will never apply to this poor place again. Thanks but no thanks. SORRY FOR YOUR LOSS!!!

Tech usa got me a job but they messed up real bad on giving me a raise. I was told that they could take a 1.00 cut from their end to give me a bump which was a 1.00 also. Took them over a month to even contact the employer I was working for and then I was asked what do I think I should be making. I asked for 2 more dollars which I was told would come out of tech usa's end. Next thing you know the employer I was working for calls me in to the office to tell me bad news and it was that tech usa wanted way more for me to stay there and the employer said no. Tech usa couldn't even tell me that it was going to be my last week and they never even called me the day I was let go. I called them and told them ok I need another job soon I was told they were working on it and that was the last time I heard from them and that was over 2 months ago. I was told that they wanted over 40 per hour for me and was only gonna give me 19 per hour. WOW tech usa here in Phoenix is just out to rob your hard work I would never recommend them to any one they are not very professional.

A typical day of work consists of, coming in turning on phone, turning on computer, getting ready for incoming calls and clients. Keep office space clean and tidy, also filling coffee and cleaning kitchen at end of day. Some filling, data entry, and paperwork. Occasionally may need to make spread sheets or word documents. I learned how to work in an office setting, because I was in retail before. I advanced my typing and computer skills. Advanced my time management skills and project completion times. It was a good work environment, and a great company, all of my co-workers were very respectable. The hardest part of my job is the hours changing. Most recently the weekly hours have been going up and down, so that has been hard. The most enjoyable part of my job is really the whole receptionist position. I love to answer the phones and assist clients, have become proficient with the computer so I enjoy using that as well, also enjoy helping my superiors and co-workers and visitors.

The remote work aspect was terrific and having a reasonable timeframe to complete assignments was helpful. The communication was poor. Questions critical to completing assignments were unanswered for days. The guidelines for how assignments were to be completed shifted ALL THE TIME so work that had been completed and submitted had to be redone at the expense of the freelancer. Assignment reviewers changed frequently and they would each have different criteria for what was acceptable and what wasn't. The worst was actually getting paid. My invoices 'fell through cracks' for over a year. They admitted this was an ongoing issue for freelancers, yet they didn't fix it. Invoices were supposed to be paid weekly, yet they sat for 3-4 weeks with no response from the contact person as to why they hadn't been paid.

My typical day at work started at 0730hrs, meet with my team and gather supplies to complete our day with. Upon gaining our supplies the team would go to the room we would be working set up our gear, and complete a minimum of 100 fiber terminations in a ten hour day.

I myself learned about adapting to different settings to complete my work. As part of a team I was able to work on my communcation skills, in efforts to cordinate and exicute a plan of action, when entering a new room.

Managment as well as co-workers were great people. They all remained professional and willing to help.

The hardest part of my job was pulling in new cabling. The easiest part of my job was the termination of the fiber optic cables. Overall I loved working for Tech. USA. The reason for leaving, was the contract ended as well as I moved from Georgia to Texas in efforts to be near my family.

first I have to say that it's a okay temp agency if you have a record because they don't do background checks, but if you don't have a record I would suggest going with another staffing agency, because Tech USA has no idea what's going on with the clients that they send people too on the jobs they have posted, the reason I say that, I'm working with one of their clients and they have no idea what hours I work, right now there was an issue where I didn't get paid all my hours that I worked, I am not happy with this temp agency if another job comes around I'm more likely would work another job and never work back with TechUSA. If anyone else is having issues with not getting paid all the hours they worked, I would suggest contacting the Chicago Labor Department so they're aware of what's going on.
