Testimonials from Employees Who Joined QPS
At QPS Employment Group, we prioritize the well-being and growth of employees from the staffing agencies we acquire. We’re proud of the success stories that have emerged as these talented professionals became part of our team. Here’s what some of them have to say about their experience.
Prior to joining QPS, I was the Safety Consultant for Safety Pros, a division of USA Staffing. When the acquisition happened, none of us had any notice from our old employer that the sale was taking place, and I was extremely nervous. As someone who wasn’t directly involved in staffing, I wasn’t sure what to expect. But honestly, I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. QPS welcomed me with open arms and has allowed me to continue doing what I love—ensuring workplace safety—while providing me with even more resources and support. For a safety geek like me, it’s the best of both worlds!
I was an account executive for USA Staffing in Des Moines, Iowa for 10 years until QPS acquired our offices in 2012. I was apprehensive at first at what I could expect from a new owner, but I can say that the transition and the years since have been great. USA staffing was a smaller agency so the resources that QPS offers, as well the opportunity for personal growth have been amazing.
I worked with Ameristaff as a recruiter since 2016 and when I found out the owner was selling the business I was nervous our jobs would be at risk with new ownership coming in. I had the opportunity to meet the leadership team shortly after the acquisition came through and loved the energy and dynamic of the team. No matter which branch/region people sat in, everyone at QPS was so welcoming and quick to jump in and help me when I needed additional support. It was a relief hearing we can still own the autonomy of our individual branches while having corporate resources to help us be successful and grow.
