MANPOWER

They are making money from your work. However years ago i needed work badly and they helped me get a job so i was happy they were there.

Don't be a negative bunny.

Not even sure why I went to meet with them, literally nothing has happened and it's been months. Don't waste your time.

I tried calling Manpower and no one answers the phone (the number in Kingston Ontario apparently has no one working there or no one who believes in customer service). When you run an agency based on working with people do they not think its important to have someone answer the phone. The phone just rang, rang and rang again. Exactly how do you find people jobs when no one actually exists in your office.if I'm wrong then idea might be to actually hire someone who can answer a phone. At one point voicemail comes up and does not name the company just asks u about time slips and somekind of ordering card. Not helpful at all. How do you find people jobs when no one is in your office. This company needs to step up its customers service

I worked for them for almost 5 months last summer. The lady who worked on my work schedule always scheduled me on the times I specifically told them I cannot attend to even though she already agreed she'd put me in a shift that suits me. They didn't pay me overtime (they preach about overtime opportunities) even though I worked over 40 hours and had to stay past my end shift sometimes to help out. They promised job opportunities during the fall, but once the summer ended and I sent them my class schedule (I already talked to them about working during the fall for 3-4x a week), they started ignoring me. I wasn't sure if I counted as a quit or termination of employment. It was awkward. Was I fired or did they just assume I quit? I stopped getting emails from them and they refused to answer my calls and respond to emails. Very disappointing because I wanted to continue the job. The pay was above average especially for a student who'd rather do something else than work retail/fastfood, but extremely poor management and professionalism.

Manpower is not a government agency like they would have you believe, if they are offering you a wage of $18 per hour you can bet the employer is paying at least $48 for you. They are not a fair wage temp agency; they are just that temp agency looking to make almost 200 % profit or better off the sweat of you back.My kid worked for them and I know the employer personally this is fact not fiction, if the claim otherwise they are lying. I pulled my kid from Manpower and got his a job with a good company with good moral fiber not a bad moral compass. Don’t get me wrong I don’t begrudge anyone making a profit but almost a 200 % profit for your sweat is B.S.

Start with a temporary position and after my probationary period I was hired full time! Thanks Manpower!
