Pros

Randstad instills solid core values, and offers an excellent training program for recently hired Recruiters and Account Executives. The daily metrics that are involved are fair and easily attainable, as long as you willing to work hard. Compensation packages are good and commissions are high for good performers.

Cons

As in any recruiting position, turnover is high, but those who leave typically aren't willing to put in the work needed to be successful.

Pros

The Staffing industry in general is full of outgoing people and an outgoing environment -Health insurance is the only good benefit, but it is very pricey!

Cons

Micromanaged, Corporate environment means you are just a number, recruiters are viewed as "Grunt workers" while Account Managers are allowed to dictate how recruiters run their desks, it is not a team environment. -Base Salary is low and the commission structure is not very aggressive. -High Turnover with recruiters -401k plan looks good on paper but be sure to read the fine print -Work life balance does not exist, even for high producers: Strict on PTO, Arrival/Leave time, exact lunch breaks -Metrics mean more than $
