Robert Half reviews

Most of the project I was on where ones when thing went bad or where going bad. I worked for two places where they just couldn't understand why no one would take the offer or why they didn't stay long in the job. The boss at the projects was hard to work and expected you to read his/her mind and this was some place where people didn't want to work. You are stuck there trying your best to deal with this bad place to work the best that you can, but it can be tough to be dragged in to the bad situation. About half the assignments are like that where you deal with places where they have high turn over rates and can't hire because no one wants to work there. The other half are much better short term specific project work which is much better. This is unforently part of the job of being a consultant. You are stuck working at the bad places.

The assignments are not properly vetted and matched. While I was qualified for more senior level positions, I rarely was placed into those jobs. What I was told during some interviews was over inflated and not even close to reality. Some instances, you don’t realize that the expectations are unreasonable and unreachable until after you start the assignment. Who learns and becomes an expert at any job in 1-2 days, with very little training?? Candidates are expected to fulfill the contract, even when the environment is toxic. Candidate support in these instances is severely lacking. My RH manager ghosted me on multiple occasions when I sent emails or called about urgent matters and I had no idea who else I could report to, to have those issues resolved. Had a client that was absolutely terrible and expressed several times on my “weekly engagement report” all issues I was having. Candidate feedback is not relevant or respected. It's all about generating revenue to fulfil contracts, without care for the actual employees working on the assignments. If you’re not on a contract you are at risk being let go if you are on “bench time”.
