Pros

You get to work and make a small salary to pay your bills and rent etc. They honour the length of the contracts they promised you.

Cons

They care about their client and not you their workers. They will accept any nonsense from their clients at the expense of their workers safety etc

Pros

It's a decent place to work.

Cons

Kelly Connect/Apple Project leaves something to be desired. They say they 'grow' leaders, but they hire so many 'leaders' that there ends up being nowhere for the leaders to go. And you never get your pay raises when they say they are going to give them to you. They also do not pay leaders for overtime. If you have to work overtime to get your stuff done, oh well - that's on you. But if you don't get your stuff done, you get fired.
