Pros

Paid on time. About the only good thing to write.

Cons

Passed interview and selection process, turned up on given date with an expectancy to be starting the job only to be told there was no job and I was simply being put on a list for a start date for the job, asked when that would be and told “how long is a piece of string”?…confused? So was I! Not great when you’ve got bills to pay and you’ve just handed your notice in from your previous job! Shabby, disorganised and unprofessional outfit. Avoid!!!

Toxic Recruiting Policies

Pros

Some decent paying work opportunities.

Cons

The cons, basically these people will hire guys to work sites right before layoffs. Then take people who are eligible for unemployment and low-ball them to other employers, with the threat of losing unemployment. This toxic business practice can be used to drive down people's pay opportunities, every subsequent time their 'contract term' expires. You see, this company believes it owns it's employees, even though they are not actively employed, after being laid off, and this slave like relationship negatively impacts ones ability to find a comparable or better paying job after being laid off.

Pros

There’s only one pro about this place and that’s REMOTE

Cons

Everything run far away from this place! You get led on, they lie to you! They did layoffs in august and the remainder of us that stayed was told we had nothing to worry about for the remainder of the year and things would pick back up during Q1. Well that was a LIE! We blindly went into a meeting and were let go! With a week of extra pay! Then they “help” you by placing you on the bench to find another assignment for 30 days, then you’re told they don’t have any openings until January 2023 it’s a set up, no one ever knows the answer to simple questions. They had goals that were unattainable due to have 300+ recruiters recruiting for the same position. 0/5 starts Do not recommend!!!b
