Trades-Unlimited

I worked under many large mechanical contractors while working for Trades such as Kline Mech., Bernhard Brothers Mech., and J.L. Roberts. I was an apprentice under my Dad which was by no means an easy gig. It was 3 times as hard as working for someone else, but I also learned 3 times as much, 3 times as fast as I normally would have. I was always challenged and if I didnt understand something it was explained to me the first time, not any more than once though. I learned how to put duct together, hang duct, seal duct, and fabricate transitions. We worked on large commercial job sites like the 5 story addition to the hospital in Tupelo, MS and the digital media building at LSU.

Trades Unlimited is a ok company , they don't have much work local  or surrounding areas , they always will send you to LA to work , which is a very expensive place to get housing while there working and they do not compensate you for the 400.00+ a week it cost to live there to work ,  would be nice if they took your experience and paid you what your worth , as for me i have 35+ yrs experience  and they offer 18hr , and give a better per deim ,  to compensate for housing expenses. 5.00 hr per deim is not much.

Management is a big problem. They should b trying to keep u working. Not the case here. I would not recommend working with this company. They are lazy in their duties to keep the employees working. And will say whatever to get you there. Big waste of time. There are alot of better temp agencies out there. If you like working a little here and a little there. Then sign up with trades unlimited. I recommend you try another agency. You will b happier in the long run. They call their employees dudes. For REAL. Very unprofessional

Trades Unlimited is a company that is concerned about their customer. When it comes to the employees Trades Unlimited would rather look at the bottom line than own how their own employees are treated. Trades is driven by the mighty dollar.
Trades will also have you use your vehicle and promise to reimburse you for miles and not do so. Promise phone allowance and not hold true to any promises.

Paid the Bill's, but nothing else. No benefits unfortunately. Also no chance for any kind of formal training or the chance to get benefits eventually. This company was good for keeping me financially solvent, but unless you are already a journeyman, I can't recommend it for long term work, due to the lack of benefits. On the plus side, It may not be a bad place for a beginner to start. and they do pay their journeyman  well.

Good pay and decent medical benefits offered upon hire.
Pay is better then many contractors offer
Office management are responsive.
Pay is timely.
Seem to keep a lot of work, if you are a good quality worker.

Other company pay more and need more benifits they all treated me good just hated gonig on a jo and other making more than you with less knowlege its a bad feeling when you work with people that not on level but make way more money than you. Then you go in and pave the road

Everything is great until you need personal time. If you 15 minutes or less being late its like missing all day. They also bad about playing favorites.

It’s a Temp service . Nothing more to say you have to work a year before you can get hired on to company your working for . No paid holidays, your basically just a body to fill position.

I help build the houses for the solders to say in .  Also with we did all the work that need to be in order to get the houses ready for them to live in.  This job was more of building the building. A typical work day was that we all made sure that it was done the right way the first time.
