Pros

Honestly, just about the only good thing that I can say about Kforce is that there's no micromanagement, they let me do my job.

Cons

I was hired on as a contractor for an Intelligence Analyst position and was promoted to a supervisory position which included traveling to train analysts, supervising analysts in their daily duties, submitting reports, working closely with the client, etc. For submitting my first travel pay/mileage submission I had to make four phone calls (they did not return my voicemails) and send two emails over a three week period before I received the paperwork that I needed to submit my mileage. Once I submitted it, they lost it. . . so I had to submit it again. It took almost five additional weeks to receive my travel reimbursement. The same thing happened with my later mileage submissions. When I would call the account manager with questions/concerns about something 95% of the time they wouldn't be in the office and I couldn't reach them and it took about three to four phone calls and voicemails on my part before they would return my calls. All the analysts on the contract were told that we would receive a review after a one year time period. When that time period came around we analysts reminded the account manager of the promise of our reviews and they said that they would give reviews the following month. The following month myself and several other analysts placed calls and emails asking for a review - no phone calls were returned, the emails returned said that we would receive our reviews at a later date. Our reviews never took place. I found the Kforce staff that I worked with to be utterly incompetent and dishonest.

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.
