Pros

Great Co-workers at field level. Great benefit package.

Cons

SVP and up are so disconnected to what we do in the branches it has become entirely unmanageable. I've worked here over 8 years and this leadership is so focused on making their internal Jobstack App to work with no focus on operations or culture. So many people are exiting the company that it will take years to recover. I know of 7 other Market Managers actively interviewing and 4 Branch Managers interviewing. The board of directors need to step in and do something about this leadership. Everyone is overworked overwhelmed and underpaid. I always thought I'd retire from this company, unfortunately, I do not feel this way anymore. It's so sad to see a company culture digress and I feel unethical working here and trying to push my team when they are so overworked. We use to have the best talent now the best ones are exiting and I hope I'm one of the next to exit

Pros

Clean Facility and got the satisfaction of knowing you are helping workers find job propositions and opportunities

Cons

Management is highly stressed and unfortunately, that stress is taken out on staffing specialist by management. I got reprimanded in front of my team and threatened with termination. Toxic work environment within individual branches and among sister branches, specifically in the dfw area. Small technical mistakes are irreconcilable sins and leadership is threatened by job insecurity; reducing quality in management style and the overall daily work environment.
