Pros

They will hire the underdogs Offer wellness services They have good tech clients

Cons

Intimidating management. Incompetence and fear in dealing with client. My leaders did not show intention of guiding the client because they were afraid of the outcome (losing the account). In turn, the subordinates were often confused because the client would change directions so often (start-up). There was always a sentiment of fear - like we were walking on egg shells. I was hired for one role but in actuality, I did two roles. One of them was not my desire or part of my experience. I was promised a change in schedule and free weekends after training. It did not happen.

Pros

They reached out to me. Followed up with me and kept me informed throughout the entire process.

Cons

None. The assignment is region specific but that has nothing to do with Vaco

Pros

Pay and benefits are adequate and some great employee's to work with.

Cons

At my local office there was poor management and communication, things constantly changing, lack of direction, no consistency on how things are done or managed, too much time wasted during the day on meetings that accomplish nothing.
