Pros
Thought it would be a good company to work for! People seemed nice. Beautiful campus, except for parking. Long way and big hill to get from the parking lot to the main building. Would not want to walk that far especially in rain or in the winter.
Cons
I have never had anything like this happen to me before! I told everyone on Monday that I had gotten a job at Alltech in Nicholasville. I was very excited and after the first day, Monday, I really liked the people and the work environment. I was in training on Monday and Tuesday. After which I felt even more like it was a place I could really enjoy going to work. As I was going in on Wednesday morning I got a call from the staffing company telling me not to go in as the Company had decided I was "not a good fit'! I never had any indication from ANYONE at Alltech that was negative. When I asked why I was told that they thought I wasn't taking the job seriously because I didn't take any notes. I took copious notes in both days I was in training. I met with both the people I was going to work for at Lunch, one on Monday and the other on Tuesday. Both times I did not have a note pad with me as I was at LUNCH and they sought me out. So I couldn't take notes at that time. The only other thing I was unable to comply with was the dress code for females. You are supposed to wear a suit coat either in black or blue every day. I told the woman I was training with that I should be able to get one before my second week but didn't have any at this time. She said that should be ok. Either way I was not given the opportunity to question or answer any objections to my work ethic. As anyone who knows me I am a very hard worker and going into a new position especially I would never NOT take it seriously (excuse the double negative!!). Anyway I have been unable to talk to anyone at the staffing agency. Have left messages and sent email to no avail. I have NEVER had anything like this happen before and am devastated but the outcome.
