Pros

The Pro is that prior to 2009, Randstad was Wonderful ! ! ! The Key word is PRIOR.

Cons

My God, What the Hell Happened to such a Fantastic Company. It just went to the Dogs ! ! ! The Recruiters are under experienced and have no HR Background. It appears they just cannot train them fast enough. They seem to think that having a AA, BA, PhD, EdD or Master's with absolutely no HR or Recruiting Experience is going to save them. I cannot tell you how many times their Recruiters are all talk and no work. To go as far as YELLING at each other and at Employees who work hard so for Randstad. They have Major Accounts.....i.e., AVON, Bank of America, etc. It makes me wonder who took their Recruiters when they got their BA or who wrote their College Papers. Because Randstad recruiters can no longer write than the Man in the Moon. They have no Penmanship skills, no Leadership skills and no Communication skills

Pros

Great training and great base salary.

Cons

Total micro-management Ridiculous "point system" which takes you away from your daily tasks and company focus of "job fit, boss fit, company fit." 1 point for a call, 5 points for a visit... you have to have 100 points in one section and 50 in another by the end of each week. If someone in your branch quits you have to make up their points...if someone is on vacation you have to make up their points. INSANE. It is NOT an 8-5 job: your expected to work through lunch and to work until at least 6. There is NO work/life balance.
