Robert Half reviews

Where to start.... If you’re considering working at Robert Half, know what you’re signing up for: a nonstop, high-stress environment where you’ll constantly feel like you’re in fight-or-flight mode. Yes, many of the people are fun to work with, but the overall culture is cutthroat and unsustainable. The micromanagement here is insane. You’re expected to respond to Teams messages within minutes or else get unnecessary follow-ups questioning where you are—as if you aren’t already juggling a thousand other tasks. Expect to receive upwards of 200 emails per day, each of which leadership expects you to respond to immediately. On top of that, you’ll be required to make 50 outbound calls per day regardless of your workload or whether you’re already bringing in business. The company constantly moves the goalposts to fit their narrative—so no matter what you achieve, it’s never good enough. For the amount of work you put in, the pay is pennies compared to the stress and effort required. Many long-tenured employees (10+ years) have left recently, citing the same issues: feeling undervalued and definitely underpaid. Upper management is out of touch with those actually doing the work. Their methods are outdated, they cling to Salesforce as their only tool, and they dismiss innovation. They tell clients they’re “the best” while showing little care for the temps they place or for their own internal employees. Expect to constantly fight with colleagues over credit for orders, expect your cortisol levels to skyrocket, and expect a company that prioritizes optics over people. Looking back, I should have left way sooner.
