Pros

They pay biweekly. There is a plan for advancement.

Cons

Totally metrics oriented, no real strategy for winning clients. Out maneuvered by new staffing firms. Unwilling to change or listen.

Pros

Good location in central Irvine by the OC airport

Cons

I would avoid this sinking ship of an office at all costs. The upper management, is completely phony. It is obvious they are two faced and really have no clue what they are doing. I've never seen so much turnover, or lying in my life. Nor have I seen people act so unprofessional. And with new executive management at the helm now, I can only see further destruction to this pathetic office in Irvine, and to Randstad Professionals across the country. When new executive management joined last year people in high profile positions started getting fired left and right. When I started it was great, and it felt like a good team environment to build something together. There is no loyalty with these people and anyone is expendable. Top producers across the country are fleeing. I would flee as fast as you can if they want to interview you. They seem desperate to hire anyone because people keep leaving or getting fired. I have seen multiple people get fired because they didn’t produce at a high level immediately. Run away from Randstad Professionals! It is a sinking ship! They share an office with Randstad Technologies, reach out to them. They actually run a very good show, and are very successful. Randstad Professionals is full of UNprofessionals. Bunch of clueless phonies! Run away! I would never recommend working for Randstad Professionals in Irvine. The upper management is absolutely terrible and phony. I am shocked they still have a job, because it is very hard to see any value they add.
