Ventajas

I honestly can't think of anything positive working with this company. There are a lot of staffing companies out there and this one is by far the worse I've ever experienced.

Desventajas

This company is like a lot of other staffing companies where they lure you in with the "benefits" and the "good ole' boy" culture when in all honesty it is a farce. I won't go into all of the problems with this company but I will hit on a few.... 1. They will not pay your bonus on time or correctly for that matter: I stayed long enough to get a few bonuses paid out and each time it was incorrect and my pay raise, that I was promised, was not on time. If you don't demand your money they will correct the issue about a month later. I have never worked somewhere where management thinks it is okay to pay people incorrectly and there has to be some law against it. 2. If you do not fit the majority you should work elsewhere: basically to keep this as PC as possible, if you are not a white male this job will not present a lot of opportunity to you. Upper management is not divers and the hardest working people don't get promoted. I had a supervisor (who eventually got fired) who wouldn't show up to work for weeks on end, when he was at work he goofed off all day and tried to distract us, and he didn't know how to even do his job. This same person would then passive aggressively tell us we weren't doing our jobs...seriously nuts! 3. If you give them time and dedication you will not be rewarded: I had the chance to work alongside a lot of tenured recruiters and they all were begging for a new opportunity and were not afforded one at all. I find that crazy, if someone has mastered a role you should move them on to something else. That is called RETENTION!!! 4. All work and no play: upper management will encourage you to work extremely long hours with no reward. If you work over 40 hours you don't get "time and a half" like most jobs. Also since I was recruiter for a hub and not being paid commission, it actually hurt my metrics to work longer hours. 5. You will hit your top potential at some point: once you do there is nowhere else to go. If you do hit your top base salary they won't promote you and you won't get out of the recruiting chair. They will send you on an okay trip to Mexico every year, but honestly it is Mexico. Overall I wish i could go back and shake my former self silly for taking such a degrading, ill supervised and all around horrid job. RUN while you can and don't ever work here!!!

Ventajas

I had a good experience with lab support. I was contacted for a position and placed with the client pretty quickly. I started with them (pleasanton ca branch) in 2015 then was hired on as permanent in 2016. I stayed at that company i was placed with for 3years. Also the recruiter would check in with me and my boss to make sure everything was going smoothly and would bring us chocolates every year for Christmas. I was offered health insurance through lab support but at the time I didn’t need it.

Desventajas

In my experience there were no cons.

Ventajas

Once a recruiter gets hold of your resume, they are relatively quick in contacting you with opportunities and in scheduling interviews. Compensation was reasonable for a low-level contract lab tech position. I was placed with a company with which I am very happy and was actually brought on full time at a higher position once my contract ended. Good for "getting your foot in the door," so to speak.

Desventajas

There is little to no communication between Lab Support and their contract employees once placed in a contract position. The only resource provided is the Contractor Care phone line, and the help given is inconsistent and, on two occasions, the information provided was actually wrong. However, the largest "con" I experienced was their benefits system, which is atrocious. Upon being hired I was given no information about benefits and their availability. Thankfully, I inquired with my recruiter who told me they were available, but actually electing into the benefits offered (Dental and vision are good, health coverage is extremely expensive if you want decent coverage) was not easy or streamlined (I was given erroneous information by a Contractor Care representative, and upon submission I received no confirmation regarding the receipt of my paperwork, despite inquiring). Upon completion of my contract and the resulting termination of benefits, I have received little to no information regarding continuation coverage, despite reaching out to multiple people on several different occasions.
