I'm quite saddened to report there were... Less than professional events which took place within the company I had been contracted to work for. According to all my supervisors, I had been without question a top performer. Alas, this is not a protective barrier. There were things that took place, things I'd prefer (perhaps for legal reasons) to not mention here. I can tell you these issues are commonly alleviated by going through proper channels, such as human resources and it became clear eventually that I had no choice but to go to human resources. Unfortunately it was unclear which human resources I was supposed to go to and which human resources could actually help. It turns out, there was no right way to handle it. It was BEYOND convoluted. As, I was hired by one temp agency (lyneer) and supervised by another agency, contracted to the company I was working for, which also has its own human resources? Its funny how preposterous that sounds. Anyways, it was all a bust.
Seemed simple enough, turn to my actual bosses, lyneer staffing. No. The woman I typically (as well as preferably) spoke with about checks, scheduling, raises etc was in her words "really good friends with the gal who runs HR". I wasn't taken back as they're both in the same industry. However she did not advocate for me in my time of need, where she could have communicated on my behalf, she did not do so. It was all so much of a let down. The issues I faced became the office talk at Lyneer. One person, a coworker actually said,"I love hearing about you and the stuff that happens there, the girls at Lyneer talk about it when I go get my check." Unprofessional to say the least. A man for the other agency, the one which is the go to for my previous contract asked that stay in the office for a talk. He closed the door and removed his shirt so he could "show me his tattoo" yikes. I told a woman with the agency (Lyneer) about it and it went in one ear and out the other. Either because she didn't care, or wasn't listening. Either way, its not acceptable.
I'll leave it at that. If you do come here for work, I wish you all the luck in the world. And I hope your experience here isn't as much of a disappointment. read more
