Pros

They provided lots of training. Probably a better company for someone without previous successful sales experience.

Cons

Unrealistic metrics. They are extremely rigid. Out of touch on the methods of prospecting. I was pursued by Randstad, then ignored and then treated in the worst way by my direct manager. The manager then worked around me, ignoring me and disrespecting in front of my own employees. It became the most hostile workplace I’ve ever worked in. I work never recommend working directly for this company.

Pros

will pay on time

Cons

if you get hire permenant and maybe realize is not a fit after been there. and you call back to ask them to start looking again for another job they might call your boss to find out whats the problem.. which is a total of privacy violation. and never call back base on the lie the boss told.

Pros

Nice building with a great location in Irvine.

Cons

Randstad Professionals in Irvine used to be a great place to work until new management stepped in. Believe me when I say everyone is expendable no matter what your position. The company will sell you hard on why joining Randstad Professionals is a great opportunity and then a few months into the job you will realize how unrealistic expectations are and see your coworkers getting fired left and right. The turnover is very high and they keep refilling the same internal recruiting positions with employees that have zero industry experience. New recruiters are being set up to fail by lack of leadership and management blames the recruiters on lack of effort. This office can't seem to maintain a seasoned team, which is most likely due to what I believe petty female management letting their emotions get the best of them. I would strongly advise not working here and keep your options open as a job seeker.
