Pros
Very nice placements at first glance. Hours were reasonable. Pay was great. The work itself was very doable - even looked into an opening that came available the second time I was placed in the same agency. It seemed like a great opportunity.
Cons
The agency I was placed with had unreasonable expectations - they seemed to want their legal secretaries to be mind-readers. And no document was ever done to satisfaction, regardless of the number of editing changes made and then undone and then made again. That was all fine - probably to be expected in fast-paced, high-demand environment. The last straw was the lack of empathy or consideration for single parents. When a child gets strep throat, they cannot be taken to daycare. They cannot attend school. They need to be home. And if the parent is the only available caregiver, there needs to be allowances made. Seriously, it isn't the end of the world and should not be the end of the placement to miss two days - with following proper protocol for calling in, etc.
