Pros

Rewarding when you can put someone to work who really appreciates it; the relationships you build with some temp employees make your job worth while. During busy periods, day goes by fast and you feel accomplished when you can increase branch hours. Company intranet provides very useful learning guides if you do not know how to do something, or need to check on policies and procedures.

Cons

Company makes it difficult to maintain low benefit costs, example: have to take personal time out of your work day (and actually charge hours of personal time) to do a in-depth physical that insurance did not cover so your rate does not increase by $100 per month. There is bonus opportunity, but if you are in a smaller branch, as a single employee, achieving bonuses is nearly impossible. Understaffed in branches; some employees whom work alone have to cover a branch and an on-site, making finding new business very difficult, fall behind on recruiting, and reach a burnout period. When in a small, 1 person run branch and onsite, there is no room for professional growth / promotions. No flex time; if you work until 6-7pm each day, there is no ability to take a half day, without taking personal hours.

Pros

There are strong individual contributors across the organization who genuinely care about their clients and candidates. The business itself has market opportunity, especially in industrial staffing, and there is potential to build something meaningful with the right strategy and execution.

Cons

Leadership lacks alignment between stated goals and actual execution. There is a clear disconnect between the vision communicated during hiring and the day-to-day expectations in role. In some instances, employees are placed in situations where they are asked to engage in practices that raise ethical and, at times, legal concerns. This creates an uncomfortable and high-risk working environment, particularly for those who prioritize compliance and professional integrity. Despite discussions around evolving the business toward higher-margin, relationship-driven growth, the operating model continues to default back to transactional “fill and bill” activity. Efforts to introduce more strategic structure, improve efficiency, and modernize workflows are often dismissed or labeled as unnecessary. There is also inconsistency in how policies and code of conduct are applied, which creates a perception of unfair and selective enforcement. This impacts trust, morale, and overall team performance. Additionally, there is an over-reliance on outdated sales approaches that do not reflect how modern workforce solutions are built or sustained in today’s market.
