Modis

If you have any opportunities to work Modis, I would highly recommend against it. First mistake, lying about the job description and benefits. They made the benefits sound like something they were not. «The company will provide you with free lunch and gym membership». Wow what a perc. But the reality of it is, box of snacks and candy in the break room. Sorry but, some chips and soda aren’t lunch. Oh and the gym membership was of course only available for a discounted price. Definitely not free.
My contract was supposed to be contract to hire and well the company decided to extend the contract until they could make a decision to bring me on full time. Modis was kind of enough to not communicate this to me until it was already past the first month. Then there system wasn’t updated for an extended contract and so I couldn’t log any hours and had to wait for somebody somewhere to fix it.
Usually I have a contact at the recruiting company that is kind enough to answer my questions and return my emails. I had to get HR involved here at the hiring company to get any traction on getting answers from Modis. Since the contract was being extended I guess I would eventually be eligible for benefits through Modis. It’s taken two weeks so far to get partial responses from Modis regarding my benefits. After not answering any emails for most the week, I finally get a response which is a form consisting of my signature saying that I read the documentation about it. I was hoping for information about how to apply for benefits or maybe a link to a site to go to complete this information. And that’s all I’ve gotten. I’ve responded and asked nicely if I can get relevant information for applying for my benefits since 90 days on site is approaching and I’m finally eligible. I find out through HR that he’s told her that I’ve passed my deadline. No deadline was ever communicated to me and m y 90 days on site hadn’t yet occurred so I wasn’t even eligible yet, but I missed the deadline?
What a joke this company is. Like most recruiters I’ve dealt with they care about one thing, getting you in the door so they can make their money. After that, they really could care less about you. I can’t even get a straight answer to simple questions. I’ve decided to take my complaints to their corporate office, but no response. Somehow I’m not surprised.
Stay away from Modis.
