Robert Half reviews

Work-life Balance: None. If you have kids and a family, this is not a place to work. Benefits: ok to poor Compensation: Below market average salary wise, both bonus and base

I was a "staffing manager." High-pressure work environment. Greed all around. I was told by my direct manager "you need to learn how to lie to people, just tell them what they want to hear" and "if they aren't giving you what you want, just hang up and move on -- these people are a dime a dozen." OfficeTeam has the highest markup of any of its competitors -- so the clients overpay, and the temps are underpaid. They won't let anyone temp for them at these low rates until the job seeker ponies up the names and phone numbers of three past managers -- under the guise of a "reference check" (after a few bogus questions about your work performance, somehow the conversation miraculously morphs into a sales call about what projects your ex-manager could use some help on and how OfficeTeam are just the ones to "help out"). The prestigious address in downtown Orlando comes with a hefty price tag for parking -- and that comes out of your pocket.
