2 stars to be exact because I got a temp service job here back in 2018. They did a good job of helping me look for my first position after graduating college. My recruiter is real sweet but a year later, I haven't heard from anyone here again especially because I am back in school. I am glad this staffing firm actually gets things done unlike every other one in the Bay Area. Other good ones include SlingShot Connections, AppleOne, TrendTek and Lighthouse. However, they did nothing to keep up with the competition because they keep losing people they hire including me. These people are the reason why I am back in school. Once you stop working at Adecco, they won't even chat with you as friends. I even used my recruiter as a reference and they do not return calls to jobs that I currently apply for. read more

Went there for an interview manager said I could get hired because I was overtaking her I just wanted to know more about the place how is that over talking and plus I was the only person of color there so how do you think this makes me feel? If only I could give negative stars on none I would. read more

Worst staffing agency! Got hired for a Google street view project, everything was going smooth till my project lead Adrianna became really rude and unprofessional with me, then I had this other adecco employee Gloria Zuniga telling me how she doesn't think I'm a good role for this position even though the project hadn't even started yet. All these people need to get fired for being unprofessional judgmental and plain rude! Stay as far away as you can from this agency! Not worth it!! read more

I worked on the voting installations this last month and was Outsourced by addeco. In the middle of the payroll cycle they suspended my paycheck for 3 days. Any other year prob wouldn't be a problem. This year it caused massive stress and screwed up my credit rating because I didnt have the resources to pay my bills. Thanks addeco! read more

I had the pleasure to work under Aneesa during the winter run of Cirque Du Soleil's run of Luzia in San Jose. And although this was a shorter experience with than the previous run in San Francisco - you could tell she truly cared and was committed in taking care of the temp staff from day one of training up until the final days of tear down. Her overall approach has been a 180 degree improvement how her San Bruno counterpart ran things. read more

Just wanted to share Aneesa has been very helpful throughout all of 2017 and now into 2018. She has been integral to finding flexible assignments that fit for me personally and Adecco has made it very clean and quick to get paid each week. I'd recommend Aneesa as a recruiter and I think you would be happy to contact her for yourself. When a few things occurred on the job in early 2017, she went the extra mile to make it right. 2018 is going to be a good year. read more

Worst Agency I ever worked for, can't even pay me in a timely manner, I would never ever recommend this Agency to anyone ever.

Just remember, they not gonna hire u!!!, lol. U r the (TEMP). This place is weirdly sketchy and if they did good luck. U r just the geni pig here and will be discarded like toilet paper once your hire date comes close read more

The bane of my existence these past weeks. They have called me 5 times this week. I have a job, they don't need to, I have told them to stop calling. Never apply to anything with any linkage to Adecco. You will be perpetually annoyed. read more

Addecco have the worst communication with potential employee. They don't contact you to follow up on the interview. Every communication that was made, I initiated. Is very unprofessional to respond with 2 word in the email. My little sister can respond better. read more

****FYI ALL APPLICANTS, PAST & CURRENT***** They dont even get 1 star, and get 0 stars from me, being these ppl are a total FRAUD & technically should be looked into for discrimination being offtop "they do not" complete any real background checks, i was advised just now by the "bay area regional operations manager" ms anna calageri at the san jose office...i was given an offer by a company of which i will leave undisclosed, because they are great, and have been since i interviewed, its just unfortunate that they are dependant on an agency to hire and handle their payroll & adecco isnt even honest upfront being they advise the companies that they do complete a background check and would be a lie based on the info i was just provided by ms anna calageri who contacted me this morning after waiting for clearance to begin the job i was givin an offer for. she contacted me to say that they will not be able to hire me and until 2018 and my case is currently 5 yrs old and so far in my past, and has nothing to do with the type of work involved, and basically per anna, they dont do any actual background check & found this out as i moved forward onto pursuing my legal rights in regards to being employed and having a criminal background now. so i asked for the a copy of my report and the screening agencys info to reference shall i have a dispute and since they were pretty much rescinding the offer i had been given by the company direct. anna responds with they dont go thru any third party, they specifically go off the details we state in the questionairre, and the whole time i and the company itself is waiting under the impression that they are running a background check.. and only to say at the end of the day, why be honest with a company that has trick questions for u, like the need for a job is a joke, and for several days wheb thr company is ready for u to start and only to go off of the information i put, making sure i was honest and the details matched, knowing being honest is the best thing to do and only to be told no background report is actually ran, their ccq dept reviews what we have said on the form and with it they make their own personal judgement and conclusion and determine your eligibilty and pretty much told me with my offense, regardless of being in the past, regardles of the newcoming being in the process of expungement currently they cannot hire me until my case is a full 7 yrs old and thats based off of what i stated and couldve "lied" pretty much and i think this kind of process is beyond discrimination, but unconstitutional and unjust... their already trying to pass laws for ppl with backgrounds but the way adecco handles their business is pathetic and the fact that u are denying my offer givin by the company i wldv been working for but under adecco for a minimum of 3 months, adecco is dishonest with their clients and employees, i asked for a copy of my report and the agency referring name and told they do not provide and givein the disturbing details i have advised being given by ms calageri the bay area operations manager for adecco... and trust and believe i am a very intelligent individual, who does their research when it comes to my rights and i will be definitely looking furthr into this and pursuig the matter further as well if in fact i can and have the opportunity to and even if i dont, i will attempt to try because being tricked into providing information because its asked and you want to be honest and then told no background check is really done wasting not only mine but the employers time as well being u have us all under the same impression and then rescind my offer and tell me you dont tell the employers why, u just tell them that i and maybe others like myself, you cannot hire under such conditions and conditions you dont even know if are true or false being you dont verify and i couldve said i was a mass murderer or lied and said i wasnt and thats what you go by.. so they are not making companies safe by their hire practice and yes you can lie and say u dont have a background and get hired because per ms anna calageri the bay area operations regional manager has advised me that no actual report is pulled and only ur response is reviewed and pretty much judged by whomever their ccq dept and your honesty determines your right to have job and its best to be dishonest to get hired thru adecco because being honest doesnt help you it gets the doors closed and you sent back to your orginial job search.. all over again ***adecco does not do real background checks**** fyi to all those inquiring or in question or waiting to that effect like i was and to be told that and my offer taken away... their liars and companies need to be aware of that as well before hiring them to handle your hiring being their not being honest with you and need to have their background checked.. read more

Adecco was one of the worst employers I have ever worked for. I have not been paid for my expenses [mileage, cell phone] in 3 plus years. The branch manager never returned my calls nor did the director. The hub corp. office won't respond to me. They don't pay overtime, I worked at 4 am in the morning for their 24 hour oncall line....Do not work for this place!!!! read more

Adecco recruited me into an interview for a position a few years ago and let me know I was a top candidate for the position. They never followed up at all - and didn't respond to multiple calls/messages. Job hunting in the Bay Area is no joke, and I wouldn't recommend using Adecco because they aren't reliable or responsible with their communications. I did my part by keeping the appointment, demonstrating enthusiasm, experience, and passion for the job in question - and wasn't even given a "no thank you". read more

HORRIBLE! I had an interview set up for today at an earlier time in the day, NO ONE EVER CALLED! If that isn't a red flag, I don't know what is! The lack of professionalism it takes to really not even be able to call a possible future employee for an interview is crazy. NEVER RECOMMENDING THEM! read more

While my job placement didn't happen as fast as I wanted, when I was finally placed by Aneesa, it was perfect. Not only did I land a six-month project but I'm in the HR department of a very prominent Peninsula institution. What's even better, I'm sitting right next to recruiters who get to watch me work and hear all about how fast and efficient I am. I absolutely love my coworkers. This position is the ideal entree to a permanent position within this amazing organization. Five permanent positions just opened up and I'm positioned well to assume one of them. NOTE I was a stay-at-home mom for many years as I quit my career to care for dying husband and two kids. I realized returning to the workforce would be a challenge but I also remembered when I was registered with Adia, which became Adecco, and the manifold placements I'd had with them over the years. I reviewed some of the comments below and can safely tell you a few things based on my experience with temp agencies: 1. It's not the recruiter's job to stay in touch: It's yours. No recruiter will be in touch unless you are at the top of their mind so call and check-in regularly. They have lots of candidates but if you are the squeaky wheel, you stand a better chance of getting that grease. Be assertive. That's what recruiters and employers are looking for, i.e., go-getters, self-starters. 2. Yeah, the background check was a royal pain but once you get past it, your credibility increases. This is to your advantage. 3. Don't lie or stretch the truth on your resume. You don't want a job you aren't qualified for. It makes you and the recruiter look bad if you can't perform. 4. Be patient. Again, recruiters and employers learn plenty about candidates in the waiting process. Are you gracious, or greedy and impatient? 5. Don't complain about an employer on social media. It's not a good look for you when they do a background check. Do you resolve problems or just complain? 6. Adecco ain't the only game in town. Register with all of them, if you have to. You won't be unemployed for long. Thank you Adecco! read more

Looking to fill a need at our office and I contacted a few agencies. Connie was the first to get back to me out of anyone and to present worthy options quicker then expected. I see they have some bad reviews but Connie said she had inherited this branch... but if this is the service they now offer, then they will certainly be worth reaching out to! read more

Adecco was quick to get me into an assignment and very helpful along the way. Aneesa was my staffing coach and she goes out of her way to help answer any questions I have and directing me to the right contacts for my solutions. I definitely recommend this agency if you're looking to get into a quick assignment and start making some income! read more

Adecco Group is the largest staffing firm in the world. The company owns a variety of brands including Adecco Staffing which, according to their website, has 70,000+ employees in 60 countries in 500+ offices. In the USA, they are present in 48 states and they have 33 locations in California. I have been contacted for a job in the Bay Area and the recruiter specified a pay range that was ridiculously low for the skills required and the location. Obviously, I declined. These people are completely disconnected from reality and aim as low as possible for their own personal profit. read more

Worst agency to work for they try to scam you once your contract ends they don't even let you collect unemployment they make up lies that you quit on your own.. I now may have to fight them in court if that's even worth my time I would give them a negative if I could and they are big time scammers also they tried on multiple times to not pay me for hours worked!!!! read more

I have been working with Adecco since April. I am very happy and satisfied with the company they placed me with. They were very accommodating and helpful when I went into the office to full out paper work and get briefed, very professional! I also love how they provide health care as well, some staffing agencies don't which becomes costly. (There was no Margarita machine and no one was dressed in appropriately.. As stated earlier in previous comments.) read more

If you're looking for a company that cares about your future than ADECCO is the place! Employees like Connie Alarcon & Lilia Preciado really care about placing you into the right position. You may start out part time but eventually, they will fit you to the perfect permanent position. I have worked with other Temporary Staffing Companies but Adecco was the one that got me my perfect job. They get the job done! read more

This temp agency have the worst communication ever. They don't update you with anything. I have to initiate every communication made. The recruiter is useless in finding job for potential employee. After my interview with 1 of there client, I email her in how it went and no respond or even a update. Not surprise about the low rating at all. You guy need to hire recruiter that care. To person in charge. You need to replace Chay and Nadina. read more

the worst third party contracting company to work for. stay away! my paychecks were never i repeat never paid on time. my pay rate was incorrect half of the time and they were very unprofessional.. they do not care for your well being and lack any type of respect. everything that was stated about adecco from the previous reviews were all true!!! read more

Went to check this place out today bur was running a little behind schedule.Will be returning tomorrow.Therefor I will be able to drop a more informative review for yall to tap into especially if none of the previous ones were able to assist you with your decision making when it comes specifically from yhe core of topic being "Useful Staffing Agencies- Agencies thatz Full Of Sh!#"..... read more

This place deserves less the 0 stars they don't stick to their contracts they lay people off for no reason and before their contracts end they pay late and sometimes not all your money is deposited they treat their employees horrible read more

Wow! I am not surprised by 5 negative reviews out of 6. My negative review is based on how Adecco handles their business or rather the way they DON'T handle their business. If an employment agency does not have quality employees and customer service, how can they expect to provide that service for any other company? So they cal my cell phone and leave a message for some lady but I have owned this number over 8 years. The lady calling does not enunciate very well. Bad business habits. read more

When you need something from them they are so off the chart with helping you , only way they help you is if you keep nagging them. I can't even get a email answer when I need them to help me with pay stubs , I should have gone some where else for employment. Try another staffing agency they say they are great , number one at employment but far from it. read more

I recently got the pleasure of working with Amanda Ramirez from this agency and it was such an easy and rewarding experience. She contacted me for a position within Cisco and was extremely communicative and thorough throughout the whole process. She was always prompt with any interview requests and would send me follow up emails every other day just to stay connected and keep me in the loop. Once offered the position she made the onboarding process quick and painless! She was a true professional from start to finish and now I am placed in my dream position! I can't thank her enough! read more

I have been with this particular office for about 3 years-hoping that they would get better. This office stinks!!! There is always an issue with payroll processing which results in not receiving paychecks for many people. I would call in faithfully every week, (even before the economy was bad and the lack of jobs) and I was past over every time; even telling the staffers that I would take anything!!! I would physically go to the office just so they wouldn't forget me and they are as phoney as a $3 bill!! Still no calls for anything. One cool guy did place me somewhere, but then he was fired. Janeen, the branch manager, started to tell me about people she had placed in other jobs and would say "I should've called you for this one" ; Who does that!!! The last straw was that I was finally put on an assignment and because the payroll office screwed everyone's check-mine included- I had to take care of covering things-I told the other manager, David, I was not going to be at the client's facility. He never called the client to tell them! It is the first rule with these agencies that if you aren't going to be there to call the agency. The client was pissed, to say the least!!! On a couple of occaisions, I have asked to speak to the employee relations contact at the Corporate office and I'm still waiting-it has been 5-6 months! The staffers at this office think that they are better than everyone else because they have a job. They are Z-list sales people who believe that they can play god with people's lives. I know that technically, they are "my employer" but I have no relationship with this company other than receiving a paycheck from them; and they can't even do this correctly or on-time!!! read more

Adecco Sucks. They are completely unorganized and I am pretty sure they never check their Voicemails. I have left 6 messages for 2 different "employees" and havent heard any word from them. When I do speak with an employee, they throw me on hold for 5 - 10 minutes and come back and tell me i need to call back later. read more

As I'm here reading and looking through all the comments I truly disagree. Maybe all the complaints may come from people who was laid off for not being professional or did something to get them fired. I'm a chef and things worked out very well. Maybe because I have the experience there looking for. Who knows but I know that I was helped and treated very nice by everybody that has help me through my experience here. I was rehired all thanks to david Farah. All I wanted was to work for the biggest company today and that was apple. He helped me and made magic happen. I enjoy every second of my life being at apple. What can I say I made it and I was gifted by a really nice guy (David Farah). I just want to say thank you if you do read this but I know your a very busy man. You made me remember what I loved and it was cooking. I had gave up for 6 months and now I'm back at it again with a smile. Shout out to David Farah for bringing me back and keeping in touch with me everyday to make sure I'm happy. For recommendations I would go to David Farah. Your the man bro read more

Adecco used to be great. Now that Modis bought them run don't walk away. They are incredibly unprofessional. From payroll to communication they are a mess and do not have your best interest in mind. read more

I wish I could give them negative stars. Marcos, the man assisting me with a job search at Adecco, is so useless. He doesn't listen when I talk and just goes on and on about this or that. But that's not why I'd give Adecco negative stars. I went out on an assignment and signed up for direct deposit. My first paycheck was mailed to me, and I got it way late. The next paycheck, which I was assured would be a direct deposit check, was mailed again. Only, I never received it. I called the "help desk" and was told they'd over night me a new check. Didn't receive that one either. Called again, "Oh I'm sorry it looks like you cashed the first check and that's why we didn't send you another one." Excuse me what?! I never received said check, nor did I cash it. "Oh, well, I'm sorry, you'll have to file a police report, we can't help you with that." Are you kidding me?!?! Of no fault of my own, you are not going to replace my stolen check, because you failed to give it to me via direct deposit, which YOU TOLD ME YOU WOULD DEPOSIT. Now I have no check and apparently worked for free so thank you Adecco you're the best! NOT. read more
