Good experience

Senior Accountant (Former Employee) - Scottsdale, AZ - September 24, 2023

I had a good experience overall working for RH. Client engagements can be unexpected so it does require someone who can adapt, a quick learner, and a resilient attitude.

Recruiting Manager (Former Employee) - Jersey City, NJ - September 23, 2023

Decent place to work to get your foot in the door but will get burned out quickly. Very sales and KPI driven organization. Lots of calls and lots of fake jobs

It this time I am not very happy working because things have been very slow for the past months. I had ongoing assignments until the past 7 months been home a lot. This is why I’m looking for work.

Working under Robert Half as a medical transcriptionist staffing, is great for college students, or someone who needs extra money.I wouldn't make a career out of this though.

Well known organization

Primary Collections Manager (Former Employee) - Dedham, MA - September 15, 2023

The job was ok, this company is huge machine and if you're not in their corporate offices it will be hard to advance. The job was tedious and boring. however the company does have some of the standard perks of large organizations.

Pros

Many benefits

Cons

No room to grow

Terrible Place to Work

Recruiter (Former Employee) - Los Angeles, CA - September 15, 2023

Zero work life balance. You will be expected to work overtime. Management is terrible and bullies their employees. Could not leave this place fast enough.

Good entry level IT job

PC Technician (Former Employee) - North Charleston, SC - September 15, 2023

It's a good entry level IT job. But it needs to be a little bit more challenging in my opinion. I'm not sure if there is room for growth; there could be.

Strong Company

Recruiting Manager (Former Employee) - Remote - September 14, 2023

Strong company backed by a good reputation. Hard work, but it pays off. Expect to put in the time to vet candidates and a lot of business development to gain clients, but with supportive team it will be worth it.

Selfish Company

Talent Manager (Former Employee) - California - September 14, 2023

You're just a number when you work here. They only care about you if you are making large amounts of money for them. Will do anything to cut costs. Making everyone go back into the office too.

Not what it seems

Talent Manager (Current Employee) - Louisiana - September 12, 2023

This is a telemarketing position where management literally stands over your shoulder and grades you based on the length of your phone calls and what type of market intel you get on businesses. There is no real help, the company is set up like a pyramid scheme where only the upper management benefits

Such a Disappointment!

Just another number (Former Employee) - Dallas, TX - September 9, 2023

When I became a part of Robert Half, I was so excited! The recruiters were initially wonderful. They make you feel important initially, but once you’re on an assignment, they kind of do a 180. You communicate with them about issues on an assignment, and they make you feel horrible. Once the assignment is completed, they completely ignore you! I have been reaching out to my contacts for two weeks, and have yet to hear back! Thankfully, I found a permanent career on my own. I completely deactivated my profile and will sleep so much better at night knowing that I no longer work with a company that considers me just a number. If you’re okay with being just another number on their list of employees, you’ll love this place!

Pros

They treat you nice initially, the pay is decent.

Cons

They turn their back on you when you try to address issues on your assignments, you don’t hear back from them for weeks, the hiring process is long and painful.

Ok assignment

Specialty Sales Representative (Former Employee) - Phoenix, AZ - September 6, 2023

Long term assignment-not communicative enough. The point of contact changes often and the bridge between the actual component and staffing agency isn’t clear

They care about themself and the client, not the workers at all.

Processor (Former Employee) - Las Vegas, NV - September 6, 2023

RH is really good at roping people in and then once they got you, forget it, you are as good as gone to them. Good luck trying to get a hold of them. You may reach the receptionist, but anyone else is not available. Leave multiple people emails or voicemails, and do not expect to get a return call or email back. I toughed it out and finished the first project without ever receiving a call back. When my project ended, I got a call almost immediately. Finally got a call back about a year later! They offered a new project which sounds great, right? Well, the new project was a huge pay cut, the days/hours were awful, and the work environment was terrible. The new project they sent me to was downright insulting, and now I am denied benefits because they say I was technically offered this awful job that most people didn't even show up to on the first day. This temp agency is only looking out for themselves.
