Pros

The recruiters are young and outgoing, but have very little experience or knowledge of life outside of Dawson. The management has been there a very long time. The owners took over their Dad's company, which leaves them very hands off, letting the workers earn the dollar without help from above.

Cons

Management is democracy at it's finest here. If you arent an attractive female, need not apply. You will be expected to hammer out plenty of cold calls as management will review your talk time. Over promised and under delivered is their way of business, negative service in the IT department to customers. Much more reputable firms in Columbus other than Dawson, look for those.

Pros

You get paid once a week, unless they forget to submit your time. You have the ability to change job assignments.

Cons

They forget to make sure your supervisor sends in the time sheets , so you can't count on being paid on time. If you give them two weeks notice they will use your honesty to get someone else into your position so they will continue getting paid. They only care about the money not the employee.

Pros

Honestly, not sure. If you're desperate, you can find something, I guess.

Cons

They assigned me to a job and then claimed the entire project was cancelled a few days before I was to show up. The website is very rarely updated --- most of the office work has been up for months and they don't seem to have a decent list of actual office positions, just some weird outbound loan call center or remote data entry in a warehouse where you work into 11pm.. I wish I hadn't wasted my time.
