Desktop support technician
Decent place to get your foot in the door and acquire skills in IT field.
No upward mobility. A lot of contract work which varies from site to site. Poor management. No real assistance from Human Resources. Entry level salaries. No raises. No bonuses. Lack of good benefits.
Associate
Decent website to track your info and good communication with the analyst account in charge of the project you work with
Depends of the project , some make more, others less Highly recommended that you know the local language to get along better
Call center administrative assistant

Head hunter
none none none none none
lies lies lies lies lies
Recruitment consultant
Excellent training Well designed training plan for new comers to recruitment Good management team, good career development plans and an inclusive approach to staff
Sometime the size of the company can be off putting for clients The divisions are broken down and can be restricting when trying to develop clients Lots of points of contact for one client.
Account manager
Good company, fair commission structure, excellent training
Large company issues, not willing to change ways
Legal administrator
Pays well considering the tasks are easy and repetitive Easy going job no stress, besides the targets - some days they are too high as the job depends on the amount of cases received each day.
Glass ceiling, once you know everything there is to know about the job, function etc there is no real way to progress despite what management tell you. They have had same supervisors for the past 4 years and even they cannot progress further. Company seems to shutdown anyone who wants to excel and move up higher and there is definitely no shortage of capable/willing people. All damn day spent of front of a screen, literally staring at it because you have to focus on finding numbers/transactions.
Organizational support specialist
After a few years, they eventually raised my hourly rate and started giving benefits (health, 401K). They seem to be moving in the right direction. They also had good leadership (directly above me) that seemed to care for us.
There was barely any room for advancement, so it never really felt like a long term position. As such, we saw people come and go frequently. Also, the first few years, there were no benefits offered, which forced me to look for other jobs.
Buyer
Good salary and a great team.
No benefits at all no pto
Associate consultant
they provide classroom training for starter
not very flexible on kpi
Warehouse associate
You get paid weekly on every Friday.
Hard to get in touch with supervisors.
Electrical trade assistant
plenty of pros they were always very responsive with sorting out any issues along with friendly service
I feel like I could have been paid a little more.
Anonymous employee
They keep pleanty of jobs and keep u employed
Low pay no insurance they look out for them selves
Technical recruiter
Earning potential, corporate culture, autonomy
Many meetings that could be emails
Talent advisor
Culture on paper is great Few people are genuinely nice Opportunities to move internally are good No delay with salary Just a word of advice, if you are an immediate joiner, negotiate your CTC really well else they will pay you lesser than what other companies give for the same role.
This is where the problem is - being a staffing company, the pay range they have is unbelievable. One thing is, it is definitely not as per market range but it's a whole different thing they way they convince you otherwise. So basically even if you have 9-12 or 13 yrs of experience they'll still negotiate hard to give you 50k hike on your current CTC. Also I did come across a feedback from my friend who said, they basically hire only referrals even if you're well qualified for the role and ironically it is the same manager who asked to apply for that role in the first place. I heard they've introduced some new policies but with recent terminations and layoffs I don't think those new policies can help them anyway because they like optics but not actually the work that comes along with that
Randstad have a great commission package for those interested in sales, they offer a wide range of benefits and additional incentives to keep you motivated and have a great training and induction programme for new starters. I would recommend people work for Randstad
Not as much working from home flexibility as consultants would want but we hope this changes in the future
Talent acquisition specialist
Onoy good words for this work.
nothing bad to add on this regard
Team leader
HR Changing Often every six monts
PF Not Processing Procedure Not Correct
I worked as a study assistant with friendly students studying diverse but interesting topics and came across some very nice people. Attending lectures across different universities was nice. Meaningful work, better hourly wage than most part time jobs for freshers.
Minimal support from the leadership, lack of transparency in how cases are assigned, or queries solved. Old softwares handling timesheets. Nearly no work during the summer months.
Recruiter
Pays really well Fun environment
Not much work/learning Pretty short
Great opportunity for commission. Good culture and good benefits.
Takes a while to start seeing the commission.
Nice overtime pay on weekends
It can be very tiring
Paid fairly. Fully remote. Great bonus/commission compensation for placements. Realistic expectations.
Order volume decrease means less work and less bonus. Benefits not great. Management is great.
Student admissions officer
I found the company to be highly diverse, encompassing individuals from various races and age groups. This diversity fostered an environment where connecting and building rapport with colleagues was effortless. Additionally, I had the opportunity to collaborate with other departments within the university, facilitating a holistic and integrated approach to our work objectives
The clearing period, characterized by early mornings and late hours, can be stressful; however, it is noteworthy that the team consistently demonstrates cohesion and collaboration during this demanding period, effectively supporting each other to achieve shared goals.
Carpenter
Very Easy to find work
Bosses don’t care about you
Site manager
Ability to order supplies you need on site, working with folks and helping them find a job and earn a paycheck.
No help from management or WFC, no support when dealing with the client, no personable or meaningful connections within the company, constant and aggressive tactics from coworkers competing with you, no "teamwork", no work-life balance to speak of, and constant harassment from management if you need to miss work. (schools closed when Covid hit, single mom with a child. had the ability to work from home but was given constant grief about it, and was then let go.
Customer service representative
learned a lot with the company
too much pressure in the office work
Training and Development was ongoing and regular
Slow career path advancement to progress
Manager
Mission and vision Global inspiration Client and Professionals Care
few touchpoints with the employees
The office located in Rockville, people wee very helpful.
Nothing to say about that.
The 2nd largest staffing firm in the world. many opportunities
You are only as good as your numbers
Process technician
Good experience with the recruiters and staff. Presents a good starting opportunity in a contractor role to be able to transition to permanent employee.
As a contractor, benefits are available but are low. Contract terms are without limit, so you could be a contractor for the entirety of your employ.
Great base pay and a friendly environment. Randstad offers an extensive training plan that is virtual.
The metric system basically forces employees to put in false data because the expectations are unattainable unless you're looking to work 50+ hours a week.
Flexible contract, variable employment circumstances, multiple opportunities, quick placement. Exposure to varied clientèle with opportunities for being picked for full time
Difficult to communicate with recruiters, low wages, no benefits, assignments based on if the recruiter likes you, wage was not always clearly communicated, pay was late, documentation was inaccurate
Randstad is forward thinking and innovative, really exciting use of technology and data. From a people point of view career development is high on the priority list. Randstad hold regular talent reviews and anyone who is capable will be stretched and developed. Over the 5+ years I have been with the business I have pushed for more responsibility and opportunity and have always managed to achieve this with the support of my managers. I have found managers in Randstad listen and act on feedback and tend to want the best for you and your career.
The pace is very fast at Randstad, which suits me but it won't suit everyone.
Corporate recruiter
Randstad Offshore Services - The HR Department is very poorly managed. Too much of politics and micromanagement can be observed in every aspect. They will pressurize and make you 80-100 cold callings every day, feels like a BPO. No growth can be observed. Even a person with 10 years of experience in Talent Acquisition is making phone calls, sourcing profiles, and making submissions every day to close the positions.
1. Too much favoritism, in the HR department they hire from local Hyderabadi people and a lot of groupism can be observed. 2. Unnecessary pressure from manager, very rude and unethical behaviour, too much of hiring targets and expectations. They will not mention anything about this during the interview process. 3. The manager will give poor rating even if your monthly KPIs are achieved. 4.There is no automated software, they lied in the JD. The company will make you work on Excel for everything, no ATS system. 5. Too much of micromanagement, they will check your excel file, how you are managing the data, they need to know every break time. My manager took my laptop many times to check the files. 6. The senior management won't pay attention to any of the issues. They will maintain a fake repo of being MNC but doesn't know how to run like a corporate. 7. Many of my colleagues got laid off without any justification. 8. No respect for hard work, the manager will appreciate just one person who pleases him. 9. The manager is holding the position of director for the Talent Acquisition Team without any relevant experience. He doesn't know how to handle a team, no empathy, and no understanding. 10. The company will hire anyone who knows how to speak English. Qualification is not a factor here.
Consultant
Little pressure, happy team, and people were nice. and office are good
if you work in an environment has little pressure, you need extra self-motivation to be a good performer.
Regional business head | staffing
I have started my journey with Randstad on 13th April 2015, since then i have felt that this organization is for people and they value people. Fortunately we are in people business and setting such benchmark for our own team gives wonderful experience. We have followed few best practices from across the globe which has really made us what we are today. It's transparent and performance driven organization happy to be a part of this group.
We have few but the best part is Senior management has already started addressing those concerns for the team. I am sure we would be an Industry Star very soon.
Administrative assistant
Really flexible working time and trust working hours
Not paid enough and no opportunity to progress

Strategic relationship manager
Professional, Supportive, Great products, Great services, Fabulous people
Sales focus and driven Evolving sales model
Randstad offer thorough training and they have a very good understanding that in this role knowledge is power. I have felt so welcomed into Randstad and feel like I became part of the family within my first month. Randstad offer a challenging sales environment with great rewards.
Sometimes Randstad management can feel micromanaged which some people don't get along with.
Branch manager
Excellent training, career pathing and opportunity to develop. Randstad Canada also truly does have an open door policy at all levels. Randstad also has many creative ways to recognize top performers (including financially). A work hard, play just as hard approach. Great work life balance, and amazing team work at all levels of the organization. There is amazing tenure here, and the majority of our executive teams started at ground level with Randstad.
Work load is intense, that requires effective multitasking skills as well as comfort in changing priorities quickly, which suits the personality traits of those who do find amazing success at Randstad . You must be somewhat entrepreneurial to be successful here, and comfortable with problemsolving.
I have been a part of Randstad for close to two years, and the kind of exposure and opportunities i have gotten have been extremely valuable. This is a place where you learn everyday, face challenges head on and have the empowerment to usher in new thinking and innovation. Along with that, Randstad provides you a wonderful work life balance- as long as you are completing your deliverables, no one will question you. Truly a great brand and a great place to work for!
Need better systems and quicker process time in certain instances
Good further career management plan
Lack of trust and support from management
Talent acquisition recruiter
human oriented, great culture and values, diversity and inclusion
not a lot of career opportunities
Auditor
Good as a part time if you're a student for example.
No big chances of moving to better opportunities.
I started off in the Graduate program at Randstad and my experience for the past 2 years has been quite good and I feel as though I have learnt a lot whilst being here. I've thoroughly enjoyed the work I do on my desk, and have managed to see good success off the back of my client and candidate relationships. I've created strong friendships, and feel like I am valued in my team.
Recruitment comes with its highs and lows, and at times the lows can be frustrating and deflating as they are out of your control.
Marketing & communications manager
Randstad is a buzzing place to work, full mostly of whacky sales types who really know how to work hard and play hard. Its a place where the Sky's the limit, at Randstad you really get the feeling that you can be an MD if that's your goal regardless of whether you went to a red brick Uni or not. Its truely international and if you want to work abroad that too is possible.
At Randstad it is full on and that doesn't suite everyone. If you does mind putting in the extra effort to achieve results and high performance then its for you.
