Pros

If you are a non minority who is Christian and attractive I believe this would be an excellent place to work. The pay is great for a person who is fresh out of school looking to get her feet wet.

Cons

There are several things I did not like. The way they talk about temps is horrible. Temps are people too they deserve to be treated with respect. Although the training on the computer was fair. The in person training is completely lacking. It is not okay to when you are supposed to be training someone who has never done this type of work before to literally walk away laughing when they ask you a question. That was a demeaning experience. She literally on the first day would not answer any questions and laughed in my face. It made me feel dirty like I was less than a person. Futhermore just the way I was hired was confusing and unprofessional. What kind of company makes you interview for one job gives you another job that you have no experiece in, you tell them you have no experience and you actually though you were getting hired for the first job, they say no they like you we want you full time in the office and not as a temp. a day later rescends that to half time, pays you less than the other person they hired for the second job ( in the office), tries to get you to quit your side job(i was wary so I said no thank God!) then two weeks later fires you during training with no warning for not having experience. It was cruel and mean sprirted and it definitely not okay to treat people like that.

Pros

I learned about recruiting although I had no training and was thrown to the wolves as soon as my first day started. Actually, no pros!

Cons

The family in Parsippany will make you feel incredibly uncomfortable and as though you are replaceable material. Some of the rudest people I encountered in my professional career made the job even more miserable. I am pleased to say I now happily work from home, being there made me realize being in a toxic work environment was detrimental to my health. Manager would call and tell me something and hang up rudely. That's how they communicated. Also, yelling at the entire staff if they leave at the end of the workday before filling a position. Forbid having a life outside of that jail disguised as a workplace. Also- they expect you to start early and work late- way late- with the joy of having zero compensation. They don't care if it's illegal- and they certainly don't care about their employees for that matter. They will tell you of perks and benefits you will never see. Compensation is not what you'll think it will be either. Expect to have lots of meetings designed to humiliate you. Then expect to have more meetings to follow up on the hate they give you, interrupting any productivity you won't be able to have as they abuse you verbally. Enter at your own risk. Nepotism prevails at this pathetic and unsanitary poor excuse of a place to work... make that quit of be abruptly let go.

Pros

Little to no experience is needed to get a job there and it will be a good stepping stone to better jobs with much better benefits and pay.

Cons

Each office is an independently owned and operated franchise so most are owned by crude businessmen who care about dollars more than employees or the people that use the staffing services. Because each is a small business, they offer little to no benefits, and they expect you to work anywhere from 45-55 hours per week. They offer little to no training, because the training programs that they have you do independently online, have nothing to do with the day to day operations of the office. The work environment inside the office was very toxic, where tattle tailing on your co-workers was rewarded by the francaise owner and called being a "team player" Outside of the way the businesses are run, the type of people that come to Express for employment are largely people who have trouble finding work elsewhere because of criminal records, poor work history, lack of skills, unreliability, and poor work ethic. In the 2 years I worked there I was yelled at, had clipboards and pens thrown in my face, was threatened with violence, and on my last week there, a guy told me he hopes my mom dies over the phone. Many of the people that would come into the office and we would hook up with good jobs, we would later see on the news or in the paper that they had been arrested for theft, burglary, assault, and even murder. These are not people you want to work with.
