Indeed Featured review

The most useful review selected by Indeed
I enjoyed working only 15 miles away from my home. The overall environment was enjoyable. Not getting any review of my work made it hard to realize the goals of the department.

Pros

Mostly great people to work with

Cons

Job ended

Very Flexible

Great network and execution team. Certain roles pay way below market but the projects are high impact. Digital transformation is happening all through industries and enterprises, so project teams are small and mighty.

Ok for Entry Level

Ok for a first job. Good culture/environment (work hard, play hard). Salary is very low, and it’s tough in IT/tech staffing right now. It’s hard to get over that bump to start getting commissions, even if you are performing well in the first year. Hybrid schedule when job could be 100% remote.

Great place for software engineer place, easy communication

So far veey good, lots of supoort and clear communication.Medical premiums are expensive, but you can buy your own PPO plan from a broker for third of the price.

Cons

No vacation

A bag of lies

This place was a joke from before I started. The first bad sign was when I told the recruiters I wanted to give my current employer a 2 week notice and they scheduled my start date for a week later. I almost walked out on my first day when they made me wait an hour in the lobby. I was then told by the person I was hired to replace and the Apex site contact to tell noone what I was hired for. Then it was downhill after that. There's no real training to speak of. You would think there would be more when 60% of the job is bureaucracy and paperwork.

Fun place to work, little room for growth

Amazing company culture- lots of autonomy over your desk, however little room for growth in sales. The Portland market is tapped, especially in term IT staffing. Very hard to be successful as an AM if you haven't been there for 5+ years. Recruiting is great there.

Great Experience

Great learning experience, worked with a great team. Everyone was motivated to work, learn and teach their knowledge if you needed it. Worked there for 6 months, regret leaving.

No structure

Not a team environment. Not a company that wants you to grow with them, no raises. Management is great, just seems that their hands are tied with most issues.

Chill, okay pay, lacking benefits

Lot of downtime on night shift. Perfect for students going for a degree and want a job that allows you a lot of study time or free time. Pay Is okay, but benefits are bare.

Great Training & Development

Lots of trainings, great coworkers, but the job is not for someone who wants to clock out at 5. Any successful AM will work outside of business hours. There are favorite employees and rewards aren't always based on performance.

A very pleasant place to work everyone puts in an equal effort

What is the best part of working at the company?I feel fully supported by my recruiter. She is always there to address my complaints and concerns. She has an I can attitude and truly motivates meWhat is the most stressful part about working at the company?Sometimes the assignment may not be what you expected yet you may feel the obligation to fulfill the contract that was agreed upon.What is the work environment and culture like at the company?This is an agency that promotes long term assignments. The culture seems supportive but I can only judge from the recruiter and the sign on personnel that I have encountered.What is a typical day like for you at the company?I am currently on assignment with a medical company working as a membership service representative. My day consists of answering calls , filing complaints as well as navigating resources for member medical information.

Not worth the margin they take.

What is the best part of working at the company?Their "consultant" service people are typically good.What is the most stressful part about working at the company?They take a significantly higher margin (i.e. percentage of the hourly rate they bill the client) than other contracting companies.

Eh... wouldnt recommend

Although it was a great experience to travel for work as an IT consultant, I wouldnt recommend it. The overwhelming amount of last minute emails filled with crucial information negatively impacted the experience. I was sent to canada and stayed in a very nice hotel. The position itself was not hard, but it is unrealistic to give people one week to learn an outdated system and teach professionals. Training could use some help. Management was rude at times, but I always spoke up for myself. Money was good, but hours were ridiculous. Not much order as a whole. I was sent home early along with several other coworkers for no reason. They hired too many consultants. No room for promotion. They later emailed everyone i trained with to state that they will no longer be hiring any consultants as if the company shut down or couldn't afford the service. Traveling is always fun, but at what cost? Everything was reimbursed eventually, so a very interesting experience as a whole. Not worth it, though.

Pros

Reimbursements, good pay & travel accomodations

Cons

Overwhelming, inconsistent project opportunities, & rude management

Great start

Great for starting out your career out of college. Great experience and people to work with and an opportunity for unlimited commission. Definitely a good first job

Good if get subbed out to a good company.

Most of my problems with this job were due to the company I was subcontracted out to. The people that hired me were really nice, communicative, and accommodating. I was a 'full-time temporary field service technician' that was subbed out to ADT. I was told I'd be working 40 hours a week, when in reality this only happened once out of my six months employed there. Typically I averaged about 30, however there were some days where I'd work less than 3 hours. Work became more spotty towards the end of my employment, and in a lot of cases I'd be sent out to work on systems that I just didn't have training on, and customers don't really like waiting around for you for hours for an appointment they likely scheduled months ago, just to show up and just go 'oh, I don't know how to fix this.' Pay was fine, never really had to interact with my coworkers other than to manage inventory.

Decent entry level position

decent entry level position to get your foot in the door. Learned basic IT fundamentals to include hardware and software. The hardest part of the Management. Very unorganized.

Good job placements, bad benefits

As to be expected with any subcontract role the lack of PTO and good healthcare blow, but decent pay and cool job placements. Got to work from home which is a plus
