Pros

Well known name. Multiple offices. Multiple openings.

Cons

Poor communication with respect to employee and Manpower expectations. I needed a temporary position while pursueing career opportunities, I thought I was getting a 1st shift temporary position that would give me some flexibility to take time off for interviews etc. Temporary position (1st shift) was suppose to be for 2 months, kept getting extended (4 months and looking like 7 months plus). This was not in my career field, I needed 1st shift flexibility or 2nd or 3rd shift. I asked Manpower for a 2nd or 3rd shift position and they wanted to keep me in the 1st shift position without the flexibility I needed to pursue a career position.

Pros

They have a lot of connections in town especially to the big manufacturers.

Cons

Takes too long to find a temporary position for office employees. They never sent me a possible job over $10 per hour, despite me being an advanced candidate for HR, Accounting, or an office position. Por communication
