Randstad US reviews

Most everything else. Upper management knows that when you are in staffing going corporate is a pay cut in the long term, and building commission at another agency takes a while. As such they’ll treat you like your trapped. Recruiting leadership was good but you are subservient to sales despite what they say. And sales leaders who make 200k plus will ask why it is so hard to find an IT professional willing to make $17 per hour. And any top producer can pretty much treat horribly and get away with it. A top sales person was close friends with someone on the leadership team on Randstad’s website, and that sales person had carte blanche to verbally and emotionally abuse their colleagues. Anytime this was brought up it was brushed aside as “blank being blank.” In addition Randstad is 15 years behind on flexible working arrangements. Zero remote work (even with a Dr’s appointment) and zero flexibility on hours. Tons of PTO, but god help you if you use it all. Since every staffing company offers the exact same service it forces you to focus on core sales skills which is beneficial for your professional development. But after a year jump to any other type of sales career where the long term nature of building commission won’t allow them to screw you.
