Pros

.... still working on figuring these out.

Cons

There is no way to reach some one via phone who is knowledgeable or has ability to do anything other than reportedly take notes and tell you some one will get back to you ( which of course they never do ) i submitted a letter or resignation basically putting my end of work date 2 weeks in advance .( because i started feeling like my position was threatened and that i had to worry about having a job because i chose to speak up about an issue that was morally wrong against someone in a higher position) I originally spoke with some one in HR and was assured that i had time during that period should i choose to recend the letter and was told that it was listed that i would be fine until that date. i was contacted hours later and informed by someone completely different that they were rejecting the letter and would be letting me go at that moment. so i go to file for unemployment and they deny me saying that I did not contact the temp agency for further work. i work from home and live in an area where there is no public transpo. and its 5 + miles walk till the next available bus stop, the jobs they have available on their site are all 10 miles or more from that bus stop i just mentioned. so what jobs could i possibly apply to that they have available ???? there is no number to contact anyone that will return any messages or answer .. and i dont have the money to get an attorney to file an appeal. I was literally denied because Kelly reported i never contacted them again when the only method of contact available was to apply to jobs that i KNOW and they know i dont even qualify for or are too far for me to get to. ...

Pros

Work From Home. Equipment needed is provided.

Cons

Just about everything. They will pay you poorly, cap your pay so you can't get promotions, overwork you, and they will fire you and your Team Lead because all you have will never be good enough. Run away from this company. They will push you to the brink of suicide.
