Pros
their compesation plan is solid and well thought out. Competitive in the NYC Metro Area.
Kontras
The New York NY office of Kforce is in shambles. They have cycled through about 3 different management teams in the past year and change. Recently they have been promoting underqualified sales people to lead teams, literally people who have been unsuccesful in their line of business. The problem is most of them barely understand staffing. This is both in terms of perm and flex- (contract). In addition, year over year revenues are down and they are under siege from other companies. Kforce sold off a couple major components recently suggesting they are cash poor. In addition, Dave Dunkel took home a massive bonus. Overall, my experience is they are poorly managed and inept at hiring quality people. Their back office processes are painful and they often have difficult times bringing payments in. If it doesnt come in a certain time period, the AE takes the hit as a write-down. Also, the emphasis here is not on cultivating relationships but rather more geared towars throwing as many resume's as possible. The teams, at least in technology, do not meet their candidates and most of the time they dont even bother speaking to them before emailing out a resume; kforce is not ethics first.
