The DAVIS Companies

This is a family business in an industry where turnover is the norm.  Lets define family business first... these folks care immensely about their people.  That caring, more often than not, shows up behind the scenes with no fanfare when you need it the most.  Like any staffing company, performance is the expectation for sales and recruitment professionals.  If you are not hitting your sales numbers then you're out.  
Where the "family" element shows up the most is when you need support in your personal life.  They know that work here is a means of supporting the big life moments outside of the office (weddings, family, kids, friends...etc) and when things go bad in those area's of life, you can count on the leaders at DAVIS to be understanding, generous and supportive and they will do so with no expectation of fanfare, or recognition.
Staffing is a HUSTLE!!!  It's about relationships and moving the ball forward every day... There's no escaping that.  DAVIS is focused on leveling up to 100 million in sales and that scaling and growth can often times test the resolve of the culture.  Expectations are high but you know you are working with folks who will have your back when the chips are down.

I had a very positive experience working with The DAVIS Companies. From the beginning, the team was professional, supportive, and always easy to communicate with. A typical day at work was well-organized, and I always felt valued and confident in my role. I learned a lot through this opportunity and gained hands-on experience that helped me grow both personally and professionally.
The management team was respectful and always willing to help, and the workplace culture was friendly, collaborative, and motivating. The most enjoyable part of the job was working with a great team that supported each other to get the job done. Overall, I truly appreciate the opportunity that Davis provided for me, and I would be happy to work with them again in the future.

Clock in on time and out on time every day. Overtime is availavle every day. All you have to do is call your boss at the factory you’re placed at. While working here I’ve learned how to build dialisis flasks, rollar racks, deck kits, packaging all type of products, etc. The management at the company is ok, very clean cut and simple. Calling out is simple, but missing a lot of time at work could get you in trouble. Uniform depends on where you’re working, but closed toe shoes are reuqired for every job. The hardest part of the job is getting to work on time everyday as in some work places the time clock is put ahead 2-7 minutes. Most enjoyable part of the job is the people you get to work with and the new things you learn how to do.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The enthusiasm! And the understanding that not every job is the best fit. They continue to work with you if an assignment doesn't work for you. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
There really wasn't any stress at all. They followed up stayed in touch until something came up that was a good fit.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Very supportive. Easy to talk to the Reps when I needed to take time off or if I had questions. Very positive and realistic about setting expectations for opportunities. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
I went to work had great bosses and was able to do my work without being micromanaged so my days flew by pretty fast.

This was one of the most frustrating experiences I’ve had with a temp agency. Communication was poor from the beginning—calls and messages went unanswered unless I repeatedly followed up myself. Promises about opportunities and timelines rarely matched reality.
The process felt disorganized and unprofessional. Expectations changed without clear explanation, and there was very little support once I was placed. Instead of helping people find work, it often felt like being treated as a number.
I understand temp work can be unpredictable, but basic professionalism, communication, and respect shouldn’t be optional. I left feeling like my time was wasted and would not recommend this agency based on my experience.

The Davis Companies is by far the greatest place I've worked.   The strong leadership of the management team makes you want to work that much harder to get the job done.  Davis also has some of the best recruiting professionals in the world.  If you are thinking about learning this business there is no place that instills great work ethic, approach and style needed to be successful.  Their attitude toward their staff is like no other I've ever seen; they care about your goals, not only your career based goals but also your own personal goals and they help you to achieve them.  Work hard, play hard!  I feel blessed every day to be working aside such an amazing team (family)!

What is the best part of working at the company?

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Hiring often needs to be do quickly and you can sacrifice quality in a candidate to get a position filled quickly.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
My work environment was great.  The culture at the company did seem to need some improvement at the time.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Hitting the ground running from the minute I walked in to the minute I walked out

Not a review for Davis, but for this position for the engineer in Woburn. This job description the Woburn company is inaccurate. The majority of travel is to Europe. Right now, I found out from an inside contact they don't need a robotics engineer yet, and haven't started building the stuff. They plan to do it in 6 months. They will have you use your own credit card. The test done by the 2 existing field engineers is set up to make you fail and they;re nasty to you. The mgmt forced the one to go to CA or lose his job.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Great process for placing me. Jade, the person with whom I worked to get the placement was excellent.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Having to cover health costs or health insurance for the first 90 days of steady work. Standard for Temp/job placement agencies, but still stressful.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The work environment at my placement is quite reasonable as is the culture.

I wouldn't recommend working here. They are highly hierarchical with little to no room for growth. It's like a good old boys club. So if you're hired with promises of room for growth you better think twice. The upper management is snobby and not inclusive at all. I worked myself to the bone in this company and they didn't even know my name, even though they claim to be a "family company" who makes sure they know everyone who works for them.. too funny. Again, it's a good old boys club - you either one of them or you're just a number. No, thank you!
