Fun place to work.
Customer Service (Current Employee), Orlando, FL –
Pros: attend concerts and sporting events
Cons: timely event scheduling
This company deals with providing personnel to work events hosted at various sport complexes and arenas. Prior to the start of an event, employees are debriefed as to the type of event being held along with the necessary expectations of employees in dealing with patrons.
Working for this company can enhance your understanding of the entertainment and – more...  sports industry and broaden your ability to interact with customers in order to provide an extraordinary unforgettable experience. Supervisors are readily available to resolve conflicts and issues arising from unsatisfied customers to ensure a positive and enjoyable visit.
Engaging with co-workers is a pleasure and enables workers to share their advice in dealing with situations to expand their knowledge and familiarity of incidents occurring during events. This enables workers to immediately assist customers during future events.
With a majority of events there are alcoholic beverage sales available which creates the possibility for intoxicated patrons. These patrons can become belligerent and hostile and may need to be removed from the facility. The state of these patrons hamper the enjoyment for others as well as increase the potential for injury. While there are those few that over indulge, most patrons are a pleasure to deal with and makes the work experience worth your while. – less

Productive yet repetitive workplace.
Data Entry, Mail sorter (Current Employee), St. Louis, MO –
A typical day at work is an early start, with two fifteen minute breaks, and a thirty minute lunch break. Everyday I learn new ways to get information into the system, or information which should not be put into the system. My co-workers are people from all walks of life, it is very diversified. The hardest part of the job is when we do not have a lot – more...  of work, and often have to sit with out any work for long periods of time. The most enjoyable part of the job is sitting at the desk and working with my head instead of my hands. – less

Electronic Technician/General Laborer (Former Employee), Livonia, MI –
Pros: various jobs, different skills used
Cons: temporary work, no promise of advancement
I was sent on a number of assignments, mostly during the day. Typically I started at 8:00 a.m. I learned to do a number of jobs, including electronic repair, machine operation and general labor. I usually worked alone, but on occasion worked with a typical work group doing similar tasks. There were not usually any difficult assignments.

Warehouse Lead (Former Employee), Cedar Hill, TX –
Pros: onsite chef and incentives

This company is a wel known temporary agency across DFW that attempts to meet the comfort of the employees as well as the employer. While employed with Spherion, I learned how important teamwork is. The management teams encourages you to be extremely knowledgeable in all areas of the companies they present you to. All co-workers, including the management – more...  team, were especially nice, presentable, and respectful. Although the job didn't seem to be very hard, I enjoyed every assignment I had with Spherion Staffing. – less
