Pros

Onin Group or Staffing is your ideal balance between large company and small company. Without many of the corporate America layers to peel to get things done and a work environment that fosters creative thinking and problem solving, Onin allows you to explore possibilities literally "outside the box". The company growth continues to trigger an honest investment in careers, whether those careers are in or outside Onin. In fact, I have seen many leave to other companies only to return and pursue further horizons within the company.

Cons

At this time I truly cannot think of any major Con to add here. The owners promote an open communication environment and address any concerns with promptness. Although cliche, they demonstrate empathy and truly care about the Tribe.

Pros

Enjoyed helping people connect with new job opportunities. Decent work hours. Sick and vacation time eligibility decent. Some possibility for bonuses, depending on location.

Cons

Bad management. Rules constantly changing. Expected to find people to hire even if pool you have to choose from full of druggies. Low pay, no raises. Co-workers back stabbers. Advancement opportunity is low.

Pros

Despite the rapid growth, Onin strives to keep its core values and culture throughout the company and in each branch. Branches are encouraged to be unique. Direct employees are motivated to be creative and innovative in their work. Leadership/management tries their best to keep the open door policy despite busy schedule. Overall a great company to build a career with and grow.

Cons

Pay is below national average and is at the discretion of direct manager, with or without input from corporate leadership. Example... Some Reg Mgrs are generous and pay their BMs and staff well and appropriately for their hard work. Some Reg Mgrs could care less that their Branch Mgrs or staff live in a city with high living costs or that they've been with the company for years; these Reg Mgrs still won't give proper pay. I guess the more they give to their people, the less they pocket for themselves. What's sad is that the corporate office doesn't step in and review. So, expect to be a dedicated, hard working local Manager and make less than 40k a year and get less than 0.50 cents raise. (That's if your Reg Mgr have time for your review.) I've placed warehouse people to work who get paid more than this.
