Pros

As a recruiter at CSI I made a lot of money. It was a straight commission gig, but the commissions were nice and they often handed awards end of year. For four years I never made less than a six figure income.

Cons

CSI is NOT a corporate environment - if you like the flexibility of a fly by the seat of your pants organizations that rewards its employees for hard work and for making placements I would highly recommend it. Also, when I was there they had no formal training program - it was a "throw 'em into the fire and see how they do" type program. Management was ALWAYS there though to monitor you and to train you depending upon what areas you were lacking in.

Pros

Will front you cash if you're broke.

Cons

I worked a week and had to go take care of my mother who was hospitalized. I called the contractor I was working for and let them know. I was hoping to keep the job and they were holding it for me. After four days, I had to let my foreman know it would be a couple of weeks before I could come back. I couldn't leave them waiting on me and I am not the type to leave my crew hanging so I quit with a promise I would come back after I took care of my mother. Unbeknownst to me CSI has in fine print if you don't make 2 weeks, they lower your pay from 40$ an hour to minimum wage. So I'm waiting for 1000$ I've earned to make it to the bank and it never comes. CSI stole a weeks pay minus what my broke self had to borrow(on my own labor). I had 350$ fronted to me, plus 10% "administrave" costs and received nothing else. For 42 hours of work. As a Journeyman Lineman. I was promised 250$ in per diem. Never seen it. This 5 star reviews are obviously B.S. Linemen, stay away. CSI are ruthless. The Arizona sun has fried their minds. Read their responses to negative reviews. They sound like kids on a playground. Hilarious.
