Avantages
Casual dress, the best database on the market, you can post a ton of job ads. There are still a handful of very experienced, ethical recruiters to learn from. A very rare few will make a great living.
Inconvénients
Ever since they were purchased by OnAssignment the brand has taken a horrible nose-dive. They basically hire anybody with a pulse just to keep up with the attrition rate of the senior-level recruiters; the result is: tremendous market saturation, a culture of back-stabbing, burning bridges with clients and candidates alike, over-promising and under-delivering, fake job ads and systematic abuse of the system. When I was at CyberCoders we were known as the single worst abusers of LinkedIn inmails in the world according to our LinkedIn rep. One guy was literally sending out 20,000 inmails every week, which explains why we go it taken away. There are directors that don't bill and still make nearly half a million dollars a year and only justify their existence by holding a ton of worthless mandatory meetings just to hear themselves talk.
