Pros

Decent resources and sales tools. Lots of vacation time in your first year.

Cons

This is a constant revolving door. They don't allow their staffing managers ample time to build their business before they fire them or they burn out and quit. Working 10 hour days every day with no lunch burns most people out. The sales goals are unrealistic and their motivation tactic is my intimidation. There are so many office politics that you often feel you are working with high school students. Constant whispering and closed door meetings leave most people fearful for their job. Management does not step in to coach until they feel it's time to let you go...and often there isn't a reason they let people go. You can get lucky with a strong target list and make a lot of money. The favoritism here is very obvious. Work/life balance is very difficult and you feel guilty if you have a doctors appointment, etc. You are a robot and if you don't chug their kool aid then you are doomed to fail.

Pros

The training is excellent I learned a lot about staffing the first year that I worked with Robert Half. A lot of vacation time was also nice working there.

Cons

Robert Half they turn and burn you. Making numerous phone calls that lead no where. While at the same time you have to go out and visit so many clients in a week.
