Pros

If you have absolutely no other employment options. The pay was better than average. The have very few professional job options, but if you are needing a staffing agency for work that requires a high school diploma I would recommend them. They are a national organization and their reach is supposedly far. They offer competitive pay compared to other positions. They seem to have a lot of temporary and part time employment opportunities. They pay you weekly, which is nice.

Cons

Management is incompetant and unprofessional. The hiring process itself is ridiculous, I had to make 3 trips to their office, one of which pertinent information was exchanged. The manager of this particular branch was never there and could not be reached by phone. They did a horrendous job communicating news about the position. They lied about the benefits and length of the temporary postion. And they were down right rude, insulting, and demeaning to myself and the other temporary staff. They do not take their job seriously, and they lie about the work and benefits in order to hire staff.

Pros

Contracts your work to reliable clients and supports your efforts while under contract.

Cons

Automated job alerts can be too broad - based on one or two keywords in resume. At times job alerts are for positions that do not meet your qualifications or experience. But, this is not a dealbreaker. Keep on top of adjusting search parameters or type of work you seek.
