Pros

Good first opportunity out of school to get in the door at a big company in target industry (medical devices, in my case).

Cons

Few benefits (no PTO, paid holidays, health insurance, or 401k match provided). Sponsoring company (Baxter) did not provide adequate advancement opportunities, instead would bring on contractors full time after 2-3 years of contracting to do the same entry-level position. Typical turnover in this position was around 6-12 months among contractors.

Pros

Paid every week on time

Cons

They get you a job with people who think you are trying to take their job and then they change management on you every 3 months ..You get no paid time off no holiday pay even if you have worked for them 16 months and then they escort you out the building even though you have been a good employee.I will never work for Randstad again!

Pros

The People are like work family. Your team feels much like a 'team'. I like the fact that after all sick and vacation time is used you can still go to appointments and if approved can make up time so you get a 40 hour work week.

Cons

You are forced to use vacation and sick time. I would like to be able to use them at my discretion or choose to go without pay, for example, a doctor appt. Because once you use it all, that week vacation for the beach in August could be an entire week without pay just because you and your children were sick a lot.
