Pros
It's one of the largest staffing companies and well known in the area but only because there is 7 lines of business and known nationally. If you are in sales you are encouraged to be out of the office with clients as much as possible. IF you decide to interview, ask why the position is open. That question is a must. If it is open because somebody who had been there for 3 years had quit (also ask why they quit) then it might be a good place as their companies can now be called and sometimes you will walk into accounts where there was business and get sales easier instead of a fresh book. If not, RUN because starting from scratch is virtually impossible and the dfw sales manager knows everybody relevant in the region. If a company isnt getting called, there's a reason and he knows it but don't ever ask for direction of who TO call because it wont be there because he would be giving away business for himself. This scenario is very real.
Cons
RHT is the most expensive staffing service in the nation. That is your biggest hurdle. You are trying to sell "quality" but if your recruiters are only decent that doesn't work. TRAIN THE RECRUITERS. Lots of competition in the market and there isn't really any differentiators. If you are good looking this might be a good fit as it is easier to get a foot in the door, staffing certainly has that reputation as an industry. If you are a recruiter, prepare to be highly micromanaged and not given any training. IT languages and skillsets are hard to learn, you will have to just figure it out quick. Your headset will be on all day and you are purely a metric. The top recruiters have found ways to manipulate sales force to find better candidates to prevent new employees from reaching out. Your comp structure is a joke. You will make 40ish as a recruiter your first 2 years and if you are in sales you will make 50ish. Dont let your manager tell you otherwise. If you are in sales, your manager decides who you call. THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM. Because your manager is a producer first (they are calling acct's in the same region) they get to choose if you are allowed to even call into a company and maybe they call them instead because they know there's money there. THIS HAPPENS AND YES... IT IS VERY UNETHICAL. The "team" aspect isn't there, you are on your own. Micromanagement. Micromanagement. MIcromanagement. No training, no weekly meetings or goal setting, little encouragement, "just do it" mentality. Very very high turnover. You will see fake notes from sales people only so they can lock down certain companies. Sales lies often about who they visit or talk to so that when a flip comes in they get it.
