Pros

The placement was great - was placed at Google and met a lot of people. I was able to network and also use Google on my resume, which was a huge plus.

Cons

Vaco paid minimum wage at the time and also did not pay overtime when I went over 8 hours of the day. I also did overnights and was not compensated fairly. This prompted a lawsuit to occur and the employee who sued Vaco won. I hope they changed their ways by now.

Pros

Vaco placed me in an IT Governance/Architecture contract role at $xxx/hour and was hands-on throughout the entire process. They guided me through every stage of the interview, provided great prep, and kept communication tight. If you’re a senior tech professional looking for high-value contract placements, I’d highly recommend working with them. They’re responsive, professional, and clearly invested in your success — not just filling a seat.

Cons
