Pros

The people were nice... when they were there.

Cons

I temped for one day in a grant-funded department. That day I received a lot of GREAT feedback, and made plans with manager and director for the future of my tenure there. Went back the next day and the entire department was deserted. No one even there to say good morning to. Called my agency after an hour and was told I was no longer needed, that no reason was given. The agency was great, they were mortified that this had happened and found me a fantastic long-term position afterward, at which I was eventually hired full time. I've been there 5 years now.
