Pros

The company is open to hiring people new to the staffing services industry and provides training The main office is conveniently located on the downtown subway line Offers commissions plus a medical/dental and drug plan is available

Cons

Extremely stressful place to work High staff turnover rate Employees were expected to work excessively long hours of unpaid overtime (12-16 hour days were not uncommon) Low salary compared to other agencies Negative atmosphere filled with yelling, verbal abuse, fighting and unnecessary dramatics Certain management personnel were manipulative and dishonest The company is cheap: It looked good in the reception lobby but in the real office there was old equipment, dated computers, worn-out chairs (some of them were scavenged from another office's garbage), not enough pens, etc.
