Pros

There are no specific pros that stick in my mind. The office was clean. The area was central to all the major cities.

Cons

I signed on with Manpower and was told that they will help place you with a position that will be a temp-to-hire. Two weeks later I was sent an email at 9pm saying I needed to come in to discuss a temporary position that only lasted two weeks. The commute was about 1 1/2 hours away for half of the time. They put you on the spot and were told to tell them right then and there due to it starting 2 days later. The next day when I was unable to come up with the gas money I professionally declined the position. I was then bombarded with emails and a call AFTER I requested to be pulled from Manpower services. They basically made me feel less than a human being for backing out of something I couldn't control with a day and a half of notice.

Pros

The company I was assigned to is able to provide upskilling opportunities assuming you are performing well. The job is relatively easy and pays well in comparison to the market.

Cons

The work itself can be repititive but that is just the nature of data entry. I had to put something here to place the review..
