Pros

I enjoyed my time as a contract employee, it was nice to work for a company that understand the importance of being reimbursed and paid in a timely fashion.

Cons

Constant reporting, not enough support from upper management besides the direct manager, needs to have a better understanding of what is going on with the company they have a contract with. Was left high and dry at seperation.

Pros

This is actually a branch of Kelly Services called Kelly OCG. We are staffed in Reno, NV at Microsoft Licensing, GP. This operation is actually a decent paycheck for easy work. The benefits are not stellar, they are okay. Usually, when you take a job at Kelly, the expectation is that you have a foot in the door to the company that has contracted Kelly. This does not apply at this operation, because it is very rare that this subsidiary of Microsoft hires outsourced staff; therefore, if you are looking for just a job with a paycheck this is a good place – if you are looking for a launch for a career, look someplace else.

Cons

You are outsourced staff at Microsoft Licensing. Expect little or no benefits. Expect to be traded like cattle on the open market if your company’s contract is underbid by another contractor (also ‘vendor’). Expect to be patronized by the Microsoft staff. Expect little, or no opportunities for transfer, or advancement.

Pros

Company has the resources to develop a viable staffing solution for most companies that delivers value and cost savings.

Cons

Management moves very slow to address customer concerns. Slow to expand globally. Turnover is high with front line staff ultimately affecting customer retention.
