Vantaggi

1) Kforce invests a lot of time and money to hire and train staff with no experience in the industry. 2) Leadership is promoted almost exclusively from the Sales/Recruitment ranks. 3) Opportunities to move between lines of business 4) One of the better comp plans in the industry, especially for temporary/contract staffing. You can live off your base salary when ramping up, and the high commission checks can come quickly if you work hard. Kforce also tends to go for higher bill-rate work, which generally comes with more reliable/specialized contractors. 5) Fully remote work environment. An office space is available if you want to use it but not required. 6) Lots of freedom and flexibility in how you plan your day and do your work.

Svantaggi

1) Kforce can definitely have a "move up or move out' culture. New staff are usually given about 3 months to start hitting their KPIs. As a result, turnover tends to be pretty high. I've seen a ton of trainees come and go since I've been here. 2) Kforce is VERY numbers-focused. You are expected to report your KPIs in a daily morning meeting in front of the team. You always know how you rank up against your peers, which can be a strong motivator if you're competitive (such as myself), but some people might find it demoralizing. 3) This industry is a grind, regardless of what agency you go to work for. There is a lot of internal and external competition, and you are essentially expected to build a book of business from scratch. You need to put in a lot of work during your first two years before you start seeking the financial returns. 4) Culture can vary wildly between teams. I have a great team that works very well together, but I've heard different stories from people on other teams.

Vantaggi

Decent salary base, probably could be a really good paying job if the job market was better

Svantaggi

Definitely a typical, corporate sales culture where you are defined by your metrics and your metrics only. They are money grabbers, and their commission structure isn't that great. After 2 years you lose 50% of your commission from contractors and they eliminated early release days before holidays. My office started becoming a "bro culture" and the leader was clearly trying to act like "one of the guys" with the males in the office. If your market is slow with reqs, they expect you to reach out to other offices for subs which is hard to do when other offices favor their own teams' recruiters. They'll likely give you a picked over req or one not close to the money that their own team didn't want to work on. I had to reach out to other offices daily to basically beg for a req to work on to hit my metrics. To add to it, the PTO structure for salaried employees is not how they described it when I joined. 17 PTO days total (including sick/personal time btw) and it is actually accrued throughout the year. I had to use PTO for sick time and a vacation, so when I left I had to write them a check for my balance! Talk about a way to really give someone the boot when they're on their way out the door.
