Pros

Randstad is a growing company and there is a lot of internal promotion. If you are mobile, you have the opportunity to grow and develop as long as you can consistently perform and meet revenue and profit goals.

Cons

The downsides of working for Randstad are the typical political things that are in all corporations. If you do well number wise you are the best person in the world, if you have a down time there is a lot of cattiness and unprofessionalism. There is also a lot of micromanagement so if you are someone that likes to think for yourself you probably will not be happy.

Pros

Randstad is a good company with alot of opportunities for professional growth. If you are willing to relocate, you can go pretty far. They do have a pretty good retention rate with many employees having been with the company for 10+ years. They are extremely innovative and provide continuous training to keep its employees at expert level within the field of staffing and recruiting. There is no shortage of praise and recognition opportunities for those who work hard. The benefits are pretty standard - nothing extra special about their package. Recently moved up to the No. 2 slot in the staffing industry due to a major acquisition of a competitor. This new chapter should bring about some interest company changes and growth!

Cons

The base pay rate and bonus structure could be higher. The entry level position is a dual role of sales/ recruiting. Most people are good at one or the other, not both. So this role can be hard to fill and there is a lot of turnover at this level. Also, the company has downsized a lot in recent years and closed many offices. This can be a turnoff to potential employees who may see the company as unstable.
