Pros

I can't think of one pro.

Cons

Working at Express Employment Professionals was one of the worst professional experiences of my career. The pay is extremely low, there are no health benefits, and you’re only offered one week of vacation per year. Each office is independently owned and operated, which means there is no centralized HR department to escalate issues to—even serious ones. Expectations and priorities changed on a weekly basis, often without notice. Many franchise owners had no background in staffing, sales, or leadership, which created a chaotic and toxic work environment. I was paid late on five separate occasions, and three times I was issued a paper check without any pay stub. Even after multiple requests, I was never given access to proper pay documentation. Worse, I experienced multiple instances of sexual harassment—from my boss, coworkers, and even temporary associates. There was no safe or confidential way to report these incidents. I was frequently denied lunch breaks and left alone to run the office for hours at a time without support. This company does not value its internal employees. It exploits them, neglects basic workplace protections, and fails to provide even the most minimal structure or respect. I would strongly discourage anyone from working here.

Pros

I have a hard time saying anything good about this place. If I had to say something, there was room to grow into different positions.

Cons

Small office space Toxic workplace Gossiping constantly about one another When I was given something to do with socials, I was told Im not doing enough for recruiting. Would switch to solely focus on recruiting and then told Im not doing enough for socials. I was always put in a lose lose situation with what was expected of me in my job. I was threatened over a parking space. When I tried talking to management I was dismissed. Unprofessionalism, coworkers would openly talk bad about candidates. With a small office space everyone can hear including people who came into interview. Highly disorganized I could go on and on...
