Pros

They will get you into a position relatively quickly. The pay is alright. It is good for desperate people who have been out of work for a while and just need something.

Cons

I think they take advantage of the temporary employees that they do hire. They pay lower wages than other full-time employees in the company that you are placed in. You end up getting the majority of the tedious responsibilities and people look down on you, like you are less of an employee because you are temporary or a contractor. Companies take advantage of the Manpower contractors, they don't have to pay them any benefits and they can let them go whenever they please and still say that they have not fired or layed off any employees.

Pros

Great benefits, good clients to recruit for, good pay.

Cons

Very little communication from Sr. Management. When an e-mail is sent out to the employees about the progess of the company, they always focus on the negatives rather than the positives. Always telling us we need to improve rather than how far we have come in such a tough economy. They haven't tried to save some of their top recruiters because they want to pay people less. Quality comes with good pay. The recruiters are the reason the company is successful. They are the ones servicing the client. Not much recognition other than an annual trip.
