Pros

- HR are great at pretending to care. - Remote work assignments available.

Cons

- My experience with KForce is tied to the client that I was assigned to (Capital Group, San Antonio office). - The client's workplace culture is bad. Generally a place fueled with hate and politics. This is generally not good, especially in a tech environment where regular collaboration is highly required. - The managers for both KForce and client are totally incompetent and not transparent about workplace conditions and compensation. - Offer letters mention overtime rates, but the client never acknowledges overtime work put in, and so, any overtime work goes unpaid. - KForce management terminates contracts at will, without any obligation of notice to the consultant. Avoid them if you're a consultant/contractor. - There're startup staffing companies that do better especially in terms of compensation, work-live balance, overall working experience. - As a publicly traded company, I'll say that KForce is nothing but a huge disappointment in the staffing business. - Just look at all the below-average reviews at the company. That alone should speak for itself.

Pros

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

Cons

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.
