Pros

Experience in different business sectors with multiple companies People I engaged with were nice

Cons

Pay is a bit underwhelming Little to no training on contract roles They don’t necessarily make sure it’s a good fit before they place you on assignment and tend to embellish your qualifications so you most likely will be in over your head Working contracts can be challenging as there are definitely some toxic work cultures you will experience It’s very hard to get a job after working contracts roles, as it’s look at unfavorably by recruiters. Also, you sign a bunch of non-compete documents. Therefore, if you fina a really great company and they want to hire you they have to pay Robert Half and exorbitant amount of money which will likely make these companies steer clear (this happened to me).

Pros

Success with other departments - just not in mine

Cons

Complete bait and switch. I accepted this position under one manager, only to find out after resigning from my previous job that I would be reporting to someone else entirely. There was no meaningful onboarding, no training materials, and no support system in place. My manager openly stated that there was no monetary value in helping me succeed and made little effort to train or develop me. Requests to shadow and learn the business were dismissed in favor of keeping me on the phones. Instead of being set up for success, I felt actively prevented from growing. HR was equally disappointing. I raised legitimate concerns and never received a response. The organization talks about development and support, but my experience suggested otherwise. Joining this company was one of the biggest professional mistakes I have made.
