Pros

They gave me an opportunity to apply for employment.

Cons

They have no follow through. I did everything they told me to do during the interviewing process. They made promises to me, and their promises were broken. They are just another selfish and greedy recruiting agency, who only cares about putting money in their pockets with no regards to anybody else. The upper management will try and intimidate you when you go in for an interview,and then they will make you promises and have no follow through on them. If they treat people badly who are prospectable employeeswith them how the heck do they treat their employees.

It’s a trap

Pros

Connecting talent with jobs and finding good people to work to your clients can be rewarding.

Cons

Micromanagement to the the extreme. Unrealistic quota. Lied about working from home. Mid level management has no idea what is going on. I’ve worked in sales for a while, but this place is ridiculous. You also are expected to do the work of 5 people from week 2. I could keep going on. I stayed at my last place for 3 years and wanted to try something new, I was pitched a dream by my recruiter and VP and when I got here that dream slowly turned into a nightmare. If I could go back in time I would have stayed in my last position instead of making this bad jump.

Pros

Ability to order supplies you need on site, working with folks and helping them find a job and earn a paycheck.

Cons

No help from management or WFC, no support when dealing with the client, no personable or meaningful connections within the company, constant and aggressive tactics from coworkers competing with you, no "teamwork", no work-life balance to speak of, and constant harassment from management if you need to miss work. (schools closed when Covid hit, single mom with a child. had the ability to work from home but was given constant grief about it, and was then let go.
