Pros

Co-workers were great and once you learn how to do the job, it's an easy days work with good starting pay.

Cons

Every employee is required to hit a certain number of points each week. Points were given for interviews, references and other small things. The point system was terrible because even if you were filling jobs for your clients, but didn't get enough interviews for the week, the upper management would be upset with you. Randstad's whole company is based on filling jobs, not how many people you can interview. Also, the database software was running on IE7, which caused long waiting times, and had terrible layout structure. This also caused applicants to only be able to fill out paper work if they had IE, which no one does anymore.

Pros

They have the ability to find you work.

Cons

Like with ANY staffing agency, the moment you turn down a position for any reason, you are blackballed and then ignored. I prefer direct-hire.
