Pros

Gained exposure, experience and knowledge of different software during each engagement.

Cons

The assignments are not properly vetted and matched. While I was qualified for more senior level positions, I rarely was placed into those jobs. What I was told during some interviews was over inflated and not even close to reality. Some instances, you don’t realize that the expectations are unreasonable and unreachable until after you start the assignment. Who learns and becomes an expert at any job in 1-2 days, with very little training?? Candidates are expected to fulfill the contract, even when the environment is toxic. Candidate support in these instances is severely lacking. My RH manager ghosted me on multiple occasions when I sent emails or called about urgent matters and I had no idea who else I could report to, to have those issues resolved. Had a client that was absolutely terrible and expressed several times on my “weekly engagement report” all issues I was having. Candidate feedback is not relevant or respected. It's all about generating revenue to fulfil contracts, without care for the actual employees working on the assignments. If you’re not on a contract you are at risk being let go if you are on “bench time”.

Pros

Robert Half gives more recruiting tools than you could ever use, RPS, LinkedIn, job postings, AI, Zoom Info, etc... They spend their money investing back into the company.

Cons

They don't give any stock options or even the ability to purchase stock at a discount. It's a publicly traded firm without a key benefit most associate with that.
