Pros

Have nothing I ever saw. The only thing they have to say is, we are working hard to get things done. The good thing is they say this even after I loose my job and no job even after 2 months of no contract.

Cons

No benefits for FTE's. No health care, dental, vision. All you have o pay from your own pockets.

Pros

Not enough data to appreciate any upside; co-workers seem nice and many were Jr., implying preference for fresh meat and high turnover.

Cons

First, they seem to come close to meeting my base and I accepted on principal. However before starting, I was advised that their actual compensation is actually all on commission and the base is actually a non-refundable draw that is applied against 50% of your "base" and all commission are held for the first 6 months; 100% after 1 year. Why not just be up front with that. A bit of a bait and switch hiring practice. Had to do required online training that was voluminous, took 8 days to complete. Placed someone within first week going live and all the team leads we're kvetching about we're how many calls I made and overall "numbers". After less then two weeks live! Online training does not even go over their CRM workflows, you have to ask busy people under their own gun, how to properly record and execute a submission. Training mentor was mostly hands off and addressed me as if I was right out of college rather then Sr. Recruiter. Tried to do everything for me and get it out of the way rather then guide through a cumbersome submission process. The fixation on meeting their overall submission numbers was more important then actually filling their clients needs in a manner that flew in the face of their metrics, i.e. X amount of average submissions ='s placements/revenue. The metrics do not really apply to human capital management so it,s basically a "coverage shop". Good luck meeting your compensation goals if you have to submit the first available candidate, as opposed to seeking the best candidate. Rates are low due to SLA's, so getting someone to take the role or be retained over the duration of the contract is a crap shoot. Be prepared to work with a lot of 3rd parties and a 4 month ownership rule in this crowded field of recruiters, where another recruiter can block your submission or you have to split a low margin.... Walmart Body shop...:-)
