Pros

Good camaraderie among temps and staffing agents, and (during better times) a variety of potential assignments for temps.

Cons

Among groups of temps that were assigned to major clients, ability and professionalism would vary wildly. Staffing agents rarely stayed in their offices for more than a few months, and were rarely helpful with cultivating and maintaining regular employing clients.

Pros

Headquarters has lots of opportunities and it is a solid, well run company. They are on top of current trends in the market.

Cons

Slow to adapt and embrace new technology. Inter-departmental inneficiencis when it comes to communication. Sometimes difficult to navigate company. At local level, have seen local leadership play favorites too much and seen undeserving employees receive promotions in place of much more qualified and deserving people. If you are able to relocate, opportunities abound though.
