      Absolutely terrible experience with Adecco (but not the client I was contracted to).

      Pros

      Only if absolutely necessary - can be a great way to get a permanent position with a client they contract for.

      Cons

      Local Adecco representatives were disrespectful and never helpful - sometimes they would not respond to emails and calls about important issues like payroll. I never had a single pleasant experience talking to one of the local representatives.

      A good learning experience, however it is not a place I would choose to continue a long term career.

      Pros

      Decent starting wages, Well known company, opportunity to work with big name companies, opportunity to learn more about the recruiting field.

      Cons

      Management does not listen to the concerns of their employees, management can act very unprofessional in regards to situations with employees, awards/raises/promotions seem to be given based on favoritism more than merit.

      Pros

      -Adecco does a good job of providing a decent paid-time-off schedule (not GREAT but is good). -Compared to some other agencies - they dont' "require" their salaried recruiters to put in 50 hours a week. -It is a large company, so you could relocate easily if you needed to. -Everyone in the organization has an overall good personality and are fun to work with.

      Cons

      -Many manager are promoted because of years in the organization and NOT necessarily performance. So you have a good chance of working for someone who is completely unqualified. When your commission is based on your manager's performance in the field with clients, taking a gamble isn't a good thing. (Although some managers are GREAT at their job, and the employees that report to that manager have a much better work experience.) -Commission structure could be changed to be MUCH more competitive. -Processes change almost daily. New leadership, new processes, new ways to document things. -Upper management doesn't value employees, or credit them with being intelligent unless you've been with the company for 10+ years, despite your education or experience. (see advice to management)
