Adecco

Terrible company
Complaint Rating:  100 % with 3 votes
Company information:
Adecco
United Kingdom
www.adecco.com

I did a contract with them for West Sussex Police HQ in April 08 then tried to get paid for the job. I have sent many emails to the client and to Adecco, but no payment received for over two months. The stress the emails the time spent on trying to get any word or response out of this company, their customer relations, their respect with their client knowing these emails were sent to their client also, their staff are appalling. Still I get no response from any email address from any email found on their website worldwide.

I gave them warning that I would post details of them scamming contractors out of pay on the internet and I would flood google with my experience. After a couple of months a payment was given, but the wrong payment was given. I have sent many emails to Adecco world wide, directed at all their CEO's, to their press office and the customer relations, basically all email addresses I could find on the internet. I gave them a warning that I would post this on complaintsboard.com and it would damage the internet presence. I told them for the sake of £200 this was not worth it and it would be silly to not respond to me.

After many many emails and time spent, I have had no reply from any of my emails. I have told them I now do not want my payment, but would prefer to make it a mission to expose my experience with them on the internet.

I will refuse to work for them and let them get away with my money without letting everyone know that this is the worst agency I have ever dealt with in my over 12 years of contracting.

Adecco is the worst agency in the world to work for. They do not care about staff or the people work hard for them. They say they vaule there workers but that is just bull!!

I advise no one to ever work for them as a temp, perm or employee.

I was bullied by a member of management for over 3 years and the area manager did nothing even though a complaint was loged at head office.

Adecco is horrible, incredibly rude and unprofessional. Not impressed at all, and I haven't even started the job. Their Dallas branch is ridiculously incomptent and lacking in people skills.

Adecco is horrible. I did an assignment back in June. I'm a business major and was assigned as a janitor. After two days of training I left. Well It's now October and have only been paid for one day. They have since refused to deal with me. They hang up on me, send me to payroll, who sends me to the work site, who sends me to the branch. They refuse to tell me what supervisor tells them I wasn't there the second day. They are very unprofessional and very unorganized.

I feel so sorry for these people. I thought that our contracted group was kind of alone with Adecco. They are without a doubt the lowest of the low. They seem to be able to just barely fit in legally. They literally stole the contract for the group I am in. They reclassified the work from technical to light industrial temp. What was next? NO VACATIONS, NO INSURANCE, NO BENEFITS, no raise ever, no motivation AND AS OF 12/26/08 NO PAID HOLIDAYS! Then all of a sudden we are having issues getting OT paid. We have one person who was scheduled to work OT back in sept 2008 in feb 2009 he had his check altered to repay all the mandatory OT he was paid. And surprise to no one Adecco had removed the schedule from the archive folder gee go figure. How awful can you get! They are mean and line their pockets with other peoples sweat. The wage scale I am getting is the same as any other light industrial temp worker even though myself and others at work have masters in extremely specialized field. Its not right at all that they can define jobs to get a lower bid. When they rolled in and did their shtick for openers, this was like getting slapped in the face! They are the main reason I will never send money to AARP as they have a strange relationship. this company is simply evil. They exist to only serve themselves at the expense of innocent people who get sucked in and missled buy their recruiters. New employees to my setting were told these were long term jobs with raises. In the local interview they found out no they arent they are seen as 11mos and out the door. I am in a position of leadership and had to retrain staff many times try a 300% turnover in just 10mos. Thats a real good statistic on how they operate. Avoid them - simply avoid them.

I have to completely agree with Adecco being a pathetic, horrible company. My husband and I decided to go to them to look for a job for my husband, who had just gotten out of the Air Force, and we were told by the lady almost as soon as we walked in the door that she was busy and didn't have any work for anyone. My husband asked about the company and what kind of jobs they staff and if he could make an appointment to leave her his resume or anything basically so that if a job did come up he might me able to be notified. I asked one question during this and was asked who I was and why I was in the building by her(Chevette Gallagher). She told me I shouldn't be there and should have just stayed out in the car and proceeded to chew me out some more and practically came right out and said that she would not hire my husband simply due to the fact that I came in with him. We tried to explain that we had no idea how the company worked and were just stopping by to see about the company and she let it be perfectly known that she was not going to help us at all and just had to say one more time with her hand out at my face that I should basically just leave. I was incredibly appalled at the extreme lack of professionalism and flat out rudeness. I don't see how they can make any money at all if they act like that and just flat out turn people away without even really speaking to them or seeing their resume. After that, and reading other people's posts I would definetly say that you should never do any business with this company whatsoever.

I worked for Adecco of Amboise city in France, and right before signing the contract, one of the agents confirmed with me that there will be discrepancies in my payrolle statements and asked me to be patient if ever that happens because every month they get employees screeming at the agency's staff for stealing money, I was like !! maybe that wouldn't happen to me !!! the first pay I noticed money and working hours hours missing, I called, they appologized and said it was just a data entry problem, the second month more money and working hours were missing, again I called and I get the same anwer I had the first time, mistakes were piling up and fortunatly I documented all my working hours and expenses and they had to pay me for all of them and I decided not to work those blood suckers anymore, they take advantage of people in need of work they pay you few cents and bill the company where you working a lots of money, I worked as an accounts payable before and processed invoices from adecco I noticed how much money these suckers get beside what they pay to their emplyees.

I was contacted by them today and they told me if i was still looking for work they would contact me. Is this a place to work for or a place that finds you a job? I'm confused. Anyone?

once you are hired at the company, does the company pay you directly or do you get your pay from Adecco?
