Excellent training ground; be prepared to work hard! - werkgeversreview Staffing Specialist bij Manpower

-Breadth and depth of business exposure: If you are new in your career and don't know very much about 'business' as a whole, this is an excellent place to learn. -Hire great internal staff -Strong core values: (including the vision of the late company Founder, Elmer Winter) that are lived out daily (Worker Safety, Compliance to Process, Client and Candidate satisfaction, to name a few). -Good processes: the temporary employment side of the business is a very process oriented, well-oiled machine with a 'fast-turnaround' model. -Feel-good factor: Although the process leaves some candidates feeling that it isn't very personal, Manpower offers free, on-line skills training for their temporary employees, mandatory safety orientations and some operations also provide health care benefits once temps qualify by working enough hours. -Overall, good working environment: Staff have a lot autonomy, many responsibilities & high work load, but management doesn't DIRECTLY encourage or pressure staff to work beyond regular hours. -Positive, team culture: (vs. being ultra competitive) makes it a fun, dynamic place to work. Since there isn't a huge focus on commissions, internal staff works together and use the database to employ and re-deploy their reliable, top performing external employees/temps. -Focus on relationships: Manpower encourages the team to be accessible & visible on-site for the clients and temporary employees. -Strong, reputable brand: they work with great companies because of their size and span, nationally and globally. -Information/Industry knowledge: white papers and other value-add publications & reports, knowledge of market trends and employment statistics world-wide are available to clients and staff. -Technology: They do a pretty good job of bringing new practices in to the 'Agency' market.
