Pros

-great supportive team -remote work from home flexibility -3 1/2 weeks of PTO when you start -it’s a good way to start your recruiting career because you learn a lot

Cons

I worked as a recruiter for 2.5 years. They severely underpay their employees compared to the market rate. During my time there I have see hundreds of people get laid off, and they have also started outsourcing a lot of their jobs to India. This is an indication that the company isn’t doing well. They have an extremely high turnover rate and low employee morale. Overall I feel like the company lacks organization and direction. In addition, they lack diversity in leadership positions. Everyone I know that still works there is looking for a way out.

Pros

As far as a staffing / contracting firm they are by far one of the best out there, giving their contractors much better treatment than other companies I have heard of.

Cons

Not so much about the company, but of the industry, that once you are assigned a position that is where they like you to stay. They want to keep their customers happy, so don't want you to switch out. The company you work with are not about to promote a contractor. So ultimately you get frozen in place.

Cons

- lots of changes with company acquisition and new leadership - success is heavily dependent on market conditions and hiring trends - difficult to move into other areas of organization
