Pros

Big company with a name known world-wide. Great systems and sister companies to partner with.

Cons

Management and Executives in the IT staffing division (Managing Directors, Regional Directors, Regional VP's and Division President) are just not very good people managers. Nice guys personally. They talk a good game but evidently they have no real understanding of their business because when your producer's leave so does some of your business. The staffing business runs on the producer's relationships with their candidates, consultants and clients. When you make life unbearable for the producer's (sales people and recruiters) they leave. No matter how well management scrambles to try and save the business, some of the business will follow those that leave.

Pros

Contracts your work to reliable clients and supports your efforts while under contract.

Cons

Automated job alerts can be too broad - based on one or two keywords in resume. At times job alerts are for positions that do not meet your qualifications or experience. But, this is not a dealbreaker. Keep on top of adjusting search parameters or type of work you seek.
