Pros

There is pretty good camaraderie in the office. Most people are team players and celebrate the success of others. If you happen to be placed into a lucrative part of the market, and on the right team, there is potential to make decent money.

Cons

It feels like middle school. Management is far too strict enforcing arbitrary rules. Huge disparity in pay. There are two people in the office who make the kind of money the company likes to tell their recruits about ($500k+), but the moderately successful make close to 60k. Most consultants don't make more than 40k. Recruiters will never make more than that.

Pros

There are none! You even have to wait a month before being paid!!!! (The whole point in Contracting through a agent is to be paid weekly!)

Cons

Not enough space to write! Underhanded, rip off, liers, thieving... You will be ripped off with your rates both yourself and the customer. Like all agents they do nothing for there money. When I questioned on the such big cut they took, I was talked down to that I shouldn't be asking these questions and I shouldn't be so greedy and they have a lot of things to pay for, like the company cars! (A Porsche was one of them!) They had screwed me and the customer and I went to talk, I told them that they had not represented me and I was sacking them and they threatened me with court told them to go ahead. The customer who's management I got on with very well wanted to take me on direct and they then threatened them if they did they would sue even though they had been found out how little of the rate they where paying to the contractors and why a lot of them were so disgruntled! One positive they lost the contract to supply contractors there! They arnt known as aggressive progressive for nothing! Please please take heed and stay away!
