I work the 2nd shift, and it's great. Probably one of the best jobs I've ever had. Most of the things you learn are common sense, and not difficult in anyway whatsoever. The hardest part of the job if probably rotating a tire here and there, and even that is easy. A typical day at would is attend a meeting where both shifts sit in on, and afterwards we are given our jobs and out we go to perform them. Usually were done by sunset, and the rest of the 3 to 4 hours are just finding things to do that are not in your job description to help pass the time. As far as management goes it's very poor, and horrible. Yes the people are great, and it's laid back, but there is favoritism beyond belief and usually most of the time someone from the 1st shift is always talking about you or someone else behind your back. Not to mention the two people who are in charge are complete idiots, and have no leadership skills at all whatsoever and go about handling things the wrong way. I've been here for a year, and usually I let in one ear and out the other and just focus on my shift alone. Our 2nd shift supervisor is great and is mainly the person who keeps everyone, and everything, together. He calls us his family and isn't afraid to get his hands dirty and help. Not to mention he always has your back no matter what. I think because of him I've lasted this long with this company, but for safe measures I'm still looking around to see what is out there.

SO I guess overall if you want an easy job to help pass the few years till your retirement, and deal with childish problems and inexperienced leaders then this is the job for you.

You will be test driving semi trucks on a closed track, testing proto-type and pre-production transmissions. There is equipment hooked up to the trucks that monitors the transmissions for problems. You report feedback to the engineers. If you are a driver and are looking for a regular Monday thru Friday, 8 hour a day set schedule with weekends off, this is a good place to go. The pay is kind of low for truck driving but seems on par with pretty much any local job. Most local trucking jobs don't pay that well anyway. Trucking in general seems to think you don't deserve a decent income unless you're willing to give up your life and be away from home for weeks or months at a time. They are very lenient. If you need time off for anything, just give them enough of a notice. If you make a mistake, report it. There are cameras everywhere on and in that facility. People have made some serious mistakes that have caused significant damage to equipment and property but they were never terminated because they owned up to it and reported it. Those who have tried to hide it, were let go. I really enjoyed the job but they changed our health insurance and it's just too expensive, so I just couldn't afford to continue working there.

This is a Professional Temporary Agency that works with many industries.

The assignment that I had emphasized evaluation of test products before general distribution. What I learned from this experience is to properly document potential problems and convey them to the Engineers in a clear, concise manner.

Working with the other people also assigned presented some challenges at first , but we all pulled together to give the client what they where searching for. This learning period was the most challenging aspect of the assignment, learning the proper language and desired results took time to master.

Overall it was a positive experience, and the support we received from the home office of Technical Professionals  Group was good.

This company does off above average pay for some there assignments, and the benefit package is very adequate.

Typical day-drive assigned vehicle in 5-vehicle convoy over 320 mile route. Usually takes 9-9.5 hours depending on traffic conditions. 
Not a hard job. Sometimes difficult to keep the convoy together as red lights, 4-way stop signs and heavy traffic may split the convoy. 
Workplace culture - not as much emphasis on safe driving as one would expect for this type job. 

I was very excited until I soon realized this job is not what it seems. The biggest problem and why there is a lot of turnover is due to the following. 
the older woman will mess up scheduling, saying you never showed up but you were not scheduled. Also everyone there that I talked to seemed to thing it was a joke job. No set schedule will ever happen no matter what. I even tried dealing with corporate and they didn't seem to care at all. This is basically a on call, drop what your doing kind of job for people that can't get work any other way. Due to disability or such. Don't get hurt at work workers comp is a joke 10.00 for two weeks out.

First during the hiring process it was impossible to contact anybody. I had to wait for them to contact me. That should have been the first red flag. Second, they never gave me a badge that worked in the door. 3rd, to clock in and out was an app on your phone. I never got the login information for that. 4th, they were not clear on training. It was a TEST. Pass or fail. How do they expect people to pass it if they never done it before? Finally, the only employees at my workplace that were employed by TPG, were hired on the same day i was.  Everyone else was not. 

TPG is a small but large company without the corporate feel. TPG offers an environment that is empowering and positive. The work environment is one that is centered around working as a team and allows everyone’s talents to flourish. As a Recruiter, it is rewarding in helping people find employment and move forward in their career.
