Pros

Great, valuable job experience and great work environment. I can actually utilize my degree!

Cons

Expensive medical coverage, doesn't pay as much as I would like but that is the nature of this economy today...

Pros

Company is not hung up on people moving around internally (geographically or job-title wise). Slow process for advancement, but, advancement is a key initiative. Positive people. Most employee's their have been 10+ years with the company. Good (expensive) benefits, pretty positive people (super important in recruiting, a very negative industry).

Cons

The initiatives from the top, are great, but are NOT being hit on at the ground level. PT competes with other large firms (like Kelly) and falls short due to branding. Poor training on the Technical side of recruiters (giving Kelly a bad name). Very corporate, meaning, 8-5pm, very little flexibility, processes are strict (good and bad).
