Pros

Some flexibility with work hours and telecommuting depending on the client(s) you support.

Cons

Janice Bryant Howroyd was interviewed earlier this year for an article titled: "CEO of a billion-dollar company shares her top 3 tips for succeeding early in your career". There's a 4th tip, "Negotiate the best deals possible with each company and let your employees take the hit by providing horrible benefits, little to no support, and low wages". Janice, that's great that you've worked through adversity to get where you're at today. But, instead of flaunting your wealth and success, how about using some of those multi-millions to assist others through their own adversity and struggles? Particularly current employees who are working hard to ensure Act-1 keeps somewhat of a good reputation in this competitive industry. I've been disappointed in the treatment of employees by both management and the company in general. It feels like they are more focused on taking over the world and becoming the "go to" agency globally if at all possible. Employees are an afterthought and expendable.

Pros

Interesting work, lots to learn in the staffing world. While it is a big company, it is also family-owned, and much of the team has been with the company long term, so departments know each other well. People care about getting problems solved.

Cons

Recruiter turnover, which is expected in the staffing industry. Could use some tech upgrades to help manage projects and processes - a lot of this is done manually. Quite low pay compared to market rates for your same position.
