Pros

Satisfying helping people with employment opportunities.

Cons

Too much work, not enough staff, recruiter work weeks are well over 65-70 hours a week and that's on salary with NO OVERTIME PAY.

Pros

Excellent benefits - 18 days PTO when you start, 5 days bereavement, decent health insurance, dental and vision insurance too! Good home/work balance.

Cons

No growth potential, very corporate and upper management run. Branch managers are not given flexibility to run branches like their own business, despite being told to do so. Management does not listen to problems at the branch level, short staffed. Pay is not competitive.

Pros

You can get holiday pay after 1200 consecutive hours worked (within 26 weeks). They'll arrange (free of charge) to collect all your personal belongings that you left in your desk, because you had no idea that your assignment was ending until after you left for the weekend (see below).

Cons

Pay scale on lower end for trained technical workers. No free benefits (however, you can elect to pay exorbitant rates for substandard coverage). Even though your contract has just been extended for seven months, about a week or two later, you may get a phone call on the Saturday after your "last day", telling you not to come to work the following Monday, even though you have never missed a day that was not previously scheduled.
