Pros

If you break into or get lucky enough to be handed a large account through attrition, you can make a decent amount of money. If you get one with dedicated delivery teams, you have an even better chance because of the push from upper management right now. Local management is really supportive of and flexible with their top performers - especially after a couple years of tenure. However, senior management doesn't bother to even remember your name unless you've been there for many years regardless of your performance. If you're good at staffing politics, you can do really well here. Management changes their mind on what to do every couple years; so if you drink the kool-aid when they flip or at least don't fight it, you'll fare better.

Cons

Majority of the recruiters and sales people are horribly inexperienced, so it's really hard to fill roles. New training teaches recruiters and sales people virtually nothing because it's not reinforced in the branches. Outside of basic desktop and server roles, entire company really struggles to fill any complex roles which explains why they work with so few name brand clients. Serious lack of sense of urgency across most offices. Culture has shifted a lot in the last several years as they've chased metrics and started barking at people to do more instead of inspiring a higher level of quality. Turnover is spreading like wild fire.

Pros

I am a current employee with Modis as a national recruiter. I just wanted to say that the training program they have was great and definitely beneficial in my learning. I liked how we were able to learn each aspect of the recruiting process bit by bit throughout the program so that it was easy to master each part; rather than being thrown to the wolves and having to learn everything from sourcing to interview preps and extending offers all at the same time. In comparison to other training programs I have been a part of, it was a very nice change of pace to have the recruiter/sourcer relationship, where you can work directly under a senior recruiter to get feedback and have them act as a mentor to your learning. Weekly webinars were also a great learning tool, being able to get deeper insight into the roles that we are recruiting for helps to create more confidence in knowing the skill sets necessary to fulfill our job requirements. All in all, the sourcer training program definitely set me up for success to feel 100% confident in my recruiting abilities moving forward.

Cons

For the most part there are no cons that I have been aware of yet. Of course any good job is not going to be easy and there is effort that needs to be put forth to be successful, but Modis definitely provides the tools necessary to success.
