Pros

Every market and every office is different at Half and a lot of it's really driven by the people. You might get lucky and work with a solid team that has your back or work wiht a bunch of sleeze ball Shezads that will always have their hand in your pocket...it's a crap shoot. It's a metrics driven, sink or swim environment, but it can be very lucrative if you are successful. Plus, if you are successful they typically give you a lot of freedom and leave you alone to make money.

Cons

Comp plans are always changing, never for the good of the employee. They don't pay for parking anymore and on the temp side when you work "desk" expect to be there all week from 7am - 6:30pm and don't think about stepping away for lunch that week.

Pros

I worked for RHI for more than 10 years. It's true, you can make a lot of $$. I spent most of my career in the top 5% of the scorecard.

Cons

If you have worked at RHI for more than 6 months you have at least one story of them cheating you out of compensation. I can’t tell you how many time I heard “what are you going to do quit?” Yes… I finally did. If you currently work for RHI and are considering leaving, take heart. There are actually firms out there that value their employees, and yes, you can make just as much or more $$.

Pros

The pay is very good, but staying there for more than 90 days is a major accomplishment!

Cons

I left a job that paid me almost 70k a year to come work for Robert Half. This was the worst professional decision I have ever made. This was the worst professional experience of my young career. My manager told me "if I show you how to do it then I would have no time to do my own work"... Seriously?!!?!?! The fist day on the job they wanted me to take 80 calls with no training at all. This place is the worst! hours are 7:30am til 6:00pm but if your manager stays later then you are expected to do the same. Please stay away from this place, it will kill you, I promise.
