      Pros

      Chicago office is in a good location in the loop.

      Cons

      In the last 12 months, most of the CSUITE has either quit or been fired (included the President Tim Simmerly). Along with that there have been several layoffs and a large number of employees quitting.

      Pros

      Good breadth of offerings in the staffing world and some boutique consulting services, although they have recently carved off some businesses and that is making them more niche again.

      Cons

      Constant turnover at the top levels. They have lost at least 2 CEOs (without any public notice) and there's been a lot of talent loss and role-shifting at the VP levels and above. They have radically changed comp plans within the Sales teams, and it's caused them to lose a lot of their A players. Cost-cutting seems to be the driver. Honestly, I'm not sure what their strategy is anymore. They seemed to have a "plan" when I was there, but they've become just another staffing company in my mind.
