Pros

- very robust database of candidates and clients - excellent training program for newcomers to the staffing industry - in general, co workers tend to be friendly and outgoing (depends on who your boss is and who is on your team) - a very structured environment providing a setup for success (as far as level of activity)

Cons

- extremely high internal turnover (anywhere from 70-100% a year) - management has more of a sales focus, so you cant exactly take their word for anything. they will tell you what they need to tell you in order to keep you productive (no matter how false it is) - bonus and commission structures are much better at most every other firm

Pros

Success with other departments - just not in mine

Cons

Complete bait and switch. I accepted this position under one manager, only to find out after resigning from my previous job that I would be reporting to someone else entirely. There was no meaningful onboarding, no training materials, and no support system in place. My manager openly stated that there was no monetary value in helping me succeed and made little effort to train or develop me. Requests to shadow and learn the business were dismissed in favor of keeping me on the phones. Instead of being set up for success, I felt actively prevented from growing. HR was equally disappointing. I raised legitimate concerns and never received a response. The organization talks about development and support, but my experience suggested otherwise. Joining this company was one of the biggest professional mistakes I have made.
