Pros

I started about six months ago and have an overall positive view of Kforce as a company, SF office, and my position here. Great Culture: This office is a very young, bubbly, positive, fun crowd. Although Kforce as a whole is a corporate " style company, the San Francisco office is very startup like. I love being around my coworkers both inside the office and outside in play. We have game days, happy hours, outside office events, catered breakfast/lunch on occasion. Management is great- I don't feel the need to hesitate addressing issues directly to management, the door is open and they are willing to hear what you have to say. The technical roles are challenging to work on initially but if you put in the extra time, you'll start to see your business flow and grow. Room for growth: yes Extremely flexible with hours, (ie remote options if you have drs appts, time off is flexible) If you get your work done, you're good to go. Some days you have to stay late, some you'll leave early. Typical hours are 8-5 give or take.

Cons

self - starter environment: if you're looking for someone to hold your hand and feed you, this probably isn't the right place. You definitely create your own future and are thrown out to learn a lot of things on your own, which is beneficial for some and not for others. Lack of typical San Francisco employment perks: gym, commute, quality food in office, little bit lower pay

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.
