WIS International Employer Reviews

Working for a company like wis is very interesting at times. For it has its up's and downs. A usual work day starts around 6:am and can rang to about 2:pm which is great but there are moments when you will go a full week with no work. That would be consider the down part of the job for those who have a family to support. As far as the up side you get – more...  to travel and see other places ,and the eployess are fun to work with. Overall the job is great for a second job but not for a main source of income. – less

When I worked at this job, i had to travel all over the chicagoland/northern illinois area. The hours varied from 3am starting to 10pm starting, depending on the contract with the particular client.
I was responsible for a speedy and accurate count of various types of merchandise.
The management staff was good to work for.
We were only compensated for – more...  travel time if we were in a company van, and a ride was only provided if the client was an hour or more away from the office (which was an hour away from my home). – less

meet at either the office or the store. if you meet at the office you"ll be compensated extra during the ride to the store. if you meet at the store you're allowed to come later. if you meet at the office you'll be working earlier taking inventory of the stock and eventually the sales floor as well. if you come later, meet at the store, you'll only – more...  take inventory of the sales floor. you pay for your own lunch before or after the job hhas started unless it's a bigger store then you get a lunch break. – less

fast-paced

A typical day at WIS International involves taking inventory of different merchandise, interacting with store employees and managers as well as fellow WIS employees managers. We also conduct audits during the inventory with store managers as well as compare the varaiance reports to the final computer processed product. Management works closely with – more...  you to make sure you understand how to inventory the prodict as well as how to record the information for the managers to conduct the audit's on the product. The most enjoyable part of the job is interacting with fellow co-workers. – less

WIS was an alright place to work, at times I throughly enjoyed it, however the management in the Benicia office is very unfair and it depends who you are friends with. Get in with the right people and you will go far I guess.

A company that has employees on an very difficult to reach production quotas and all over shift hours.

I loved working at Wis. i met alot of people and traveled to new places.

I counted inventory for all the store in the North, Central california, making sure the store have the corrcet merchandise shipping to there companies. I learned how much inventory in counted in the department stores and how to use a price check gun. Management was good not the best at sometimes. Some coworkers were easy to get along with. The hardest – more...  part of the job was the long hours not enough equal pay. I got to meet interesting people and i got to travel. – less

This job is for those that dont have any young children and doesnt attend school. The time of day you work is not worth it not to mention that you maybe be at a job for 12 hours(departure time till time you get back to the office) but only get paid for 8 hours.

They hired everyone that walked in the door, just about, and promised 15-20 hours a week, and realistically only got about 4-8 hours every week.

good people to work with and u keep busy lots of travle good team work

I counted and tallied inventory at different stores in Indiana, Illinois.

The range of work is pretty small, but the geniune interest and care amongst co-workers combined with a laid-back environment made this an enjoyable job.

HARDEST. STANDING FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME ( DURING PREGNACY)

BEST- SHOP ON JOB, BREAKS, PEOPLE

MANAGEMENT- SO-SO

COWORKERS- GREAT PEOPLE

WHAT I'VE LEARNED- NOT TO SURE YET, ONLY THERE FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME

TYPICAL DAY- GET SET UP, ASSIGN GROUPS,....WORK!

a typical day at work was getting up very early getting dressed and get in the van that would take us to the walmart that we was inventory that day. get our scanning machines out and then we would start scanning and counting all the matieral in the store. the hardeat thing about my job was making sure your counted all the matieral right and making sure – more...  that scand all the matieral so your number of materials was right – less

horrible place to work, weird hours if you dont have a car this isnt a good job

I liked to go to different cities and states. We would go to places like Galsburg or Monmouth. They would pay for the hotel and food.

it is the easiest job however the poeple you manage are very hard to mange. Very long hours not that great of pay.

Its a good little part-time job for someone thats looking for some extra spending money.
