Pros
The insight into the staffing world was beneficial. Potential to make a lot of money as Recruiter or Account Manager.
Cons
They have <5 year expectancy, most don't make it 1 year....you're job is constantly held over your head along with any mistakes. They typically hire new college grads and prefer college athletes as a mentality basis and pride themselves as creating an environment as in the movie Boiler Room. The pay can be good but you have work but you have to work 8 times harder than you would at any other job for the same pay. Work/life is non-existent, if you miss work for ANY reason they will question why it's necessary and generally find a way to terminate you for not being dedicated regardless of tenure or your achievements. They also require you to mingle at bars after work with co-workers, if you do not go you are NOT seen as a team player. It's a very negative, borderline abusive, and HEAVILY micro-managed atmosphere. They even have a carefrontation policy, where if you have a problem with a co-worker you go into a room and you hash it out......these get very ugly some have resorted to physical altercations. Not a place to work if you are over 25, are married or have children. There is very little room for advancement.
