Volt Workforce Solutions Employee Reviews for Anonymous Employee

"Great company and work environment. If you like the staffing industry this company will be great to gain experience"

"I've work for Volt Company since 2007 and with over 14 years of my experiences on the Billing & A/R Analyst and where relevant education computer knowledge, and problem solving skill will be utilized and advance."

"Volt placed me in a temporary contract position that was supposed to last six months, but they over-hired and I was laid off after only two months."

"Recruiters are given outdated tools to look for candidates. Recruiters are also expected to do on boarding process which cuts into productivity."

"Working as an in-house employee within the Contracts department (Volt provides staffing services) was great. I appreciate the autonomy to dispose assignments while having ample tangible resources and co-workers available for assistance."

"I've worked for Volt for several months and have already experienced a lot of change and turnover within the company. I am seeking a company with a more positive team culture and organized practices within the company."

"The company is a staffing agency, you will mostly communicate over the phone with your agent. In my case I went to Apple to replace batteries. You show up and do what you are told. There is not a lot of communication with Volt but it was an okay job."

"I love where I have been contracted out to work....everything about that aspect is great!BUT, this agency is the worst! They can't seem to pay me. They upgrade their system and then screw up everyone's passcodes to get hours entered and approved. Then once approved the check still doesn't arrive in the mail when its supposed to. They have the audicity to tell me that I may have to drive to them and pick up the check! BS I refuse to take time off of work to drive out to their location in order to be paid. Its their responsibility to pay us in a timely manner per the contract that we sign."

"RUN, don't walk, from this company."

"If you are management, do not believe a single word of their job description. You will soon find out that you are a drone. You will be tasked with mind numbing additional work. Forget about a work/life balance. If you are not management, abandon all hope: forget about raises, benefits, or vacation. Their policy is to give you none."

What don't you like about working at Volt Workforce Solutions?

"This is a place where staff is considered a commodity. You are like a light bulb...cheap and easily replaceable. This is supposed to be a people business, but I have never worked for or at a business where the management was so clueless about what motivates people. Working at the post office would be a step up."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Get a clue: a little bit of the Golden Rule would be a major improvement for upper management. Upper management at the Orange HQ are entrenched and there is a great deal of nepotism. Many bright managers are hired and then quit as soon as they can get another job...what does that tell you"
