Disappointing service

Pros

Connect you with a job if you apply

Cons

When I worked through them on a job, they were not transparent with how much my pay was with the company. When discussing it with my manager, he was upset as he was told I was receiving a higher wage and had to follow up with Robert half. They now don’t use them. Also, none of the recruiters actually recruit. They post jobs and you apply. That was how I landed mine. When I recently tried working with several recruiters on potential jobs, I never heard back from any of them after the initial meeting.

Pros

Intitial welcoming was nice, some employees were great to work with and respectful.

Cons

Management consistently lacks transparency and demonstrates noticeable favoritism within the team. Leaders often speak negatively about employees among themselves, creating an unprofessional and uncomfortable environment. Salaries are low compared to the workload, and there is little to no work–life balance. Additionally, some staff members have made inappropriate and discriminatory remarks toward candidates, which contributes to a toxic atmosphere. The turnover rate is high, and although many employees are dissatisfied, they feel pressured to appear positive in front of management. Advancement requires taking on an unrealistic amount of work, and employees are regularly working after hours without compensation to catch up on the workload—something management is fully aware of but chooses not to address. There is also significant age discrimination. Older employees are often treated disrespectfully and pushed out, with leadership attempting to cover these actions through misleading explanations. Accountability is consistently avoided, and the reasons for employee departures are rarely communicated honestly. Management notices when recruiting managers treat others poorly but doesn't pay any mind because they want the recruiter to stay with the company because they are focused on the monthly income made.
