Pros

We did get paid if our managers approved our time. Otherwise, we had to typically wait a few days after Friday until payroll paid us.

Cons

Benefits are $$$$, vacation time is shady. Per Diem Don't even bother, the amount changed every week and was never right. No one would return our calls.

Great Colleagues, Untrained Management

Pros

Great colleagues, some decent recruiting tools, good work/life balance

Cons

Managers may have been good salespeople or recruiters but are clueless on how to manage. Leadership and EEO training are sorely lacking. Some very cliquish managers who are generally busy smoking in the parking lot with their entourage.
