Kelly Services is a complete insult to the job market, even as a temp agency
Pros
- Your hourly compensation is at least fair for certain work - You have some choice in what company to work for
Cons
- They are very unreasonable and uncaring: It is almost definite you will be terminated for even the slightest slip up without as much as a hint until the decision is made - They blindly do whatever they are told by their contractors: If a manager of one of Kelly Services contractor companies calls in about a problem with one of their workers, Kelly won't even ask for, or need, a reason to terminate that worker, making it very hard to take them seriously, even as a temp. agency. - You can't achieve any wage increases, you can't receive full-time benefits, and you gain nothing from putting more effort in your work - They never plan ahead, telling you frequently, and at random, that work at your job is too slow to need your help at that time - If you're not currently working at one of their contractors they will call you on the phone at random, sometimes with just a day's or couple hours notice if you can come into work at a job
