Pros

The colleagues were very friendly

Cons

Working as a "Staffing Manager" at Adecco is an extremely high paced, high stress role. It's essentially like working in Sales with knowledge needed in the job market and talent development. The managers were terrible they were constantly pressuring me to make candidates take jobs (that they did not want) so that we could receive commission. Once COVID hit those of us who were hired during Q4 were all laid off with 0 notice, no severance pay and still had to wait months to receive commissions pay. The job is not worth it. The health insurance is pricey and does not provide good coverage; to get the best plan it's about $250 monthly. The 401k has a low matching rate of a maximum rate of 3% - Much better places to work out there. Do not let these sales people convince you that this is a paradise

Pros

Team and peers were amazing to work with. Super helpful and collaborative.

Cons

Work-life balance was good at a general employee level but not so for management. 70-80 hour workweeks were not uncommon.
