Pros

Kforce overall has amazing people. I met some great friends there.

Cons

I would not recommend working on the ISS team. They make it seem like you will be a normal recruiter when in reality you are not. You have no control over a lot of your business and you have to wait sometimes 6 months to see your commission. In the beginning they will tell you “just do what you can control” but that is not true. They will treat you like a money making robot and they only care about you if you are making money for the firm. This leads to extremely high turnover. Most people don’t even make it past the training team. this also comes from the training manager who tends to be rude and confrontational. One of my main issues with this team was that the leadership didn’t follow Kforce values of “putting people first”. I was hired with the intention of being remote and not ever having to go into the office. (Even received an email from the CEO saying we would never have to go in) When the market declined and the team started not doing as well, we were all of the sudden forced to go back into the office. When confronting leadership their response was “we hired everyone with the intention of going back in office”. I could go on and on about the issues that occurred but overall, there was bad communication, lack of transparency, and not enough job stability. If you want to go to work and not fear every day that you are going to loose your job I would look somewhere else.

Pros

The client company was mostly a good role. I enjoyed the people I worked with, I enjoyed the work.

Cons

The client company decided to hire someone else because I made it clear that I would not work unpaid overtime for "comp time later". KForce neither let me know they were searching for someone else nor that they had hired another KForce contractor to take the position. I only found out when I saw the contract for the new hire. Communication with KForce was literally non-existant. I did not speak to someone in person until well after my last day. It's been two weeks and I have not received a box or label to ship my computer back. I have received my COBRA Insurance continuation letter - on 2/3/2026. The letter is dated 1/29/2026 and the enrollment period was from 1/29/2026-1/31-2026. This has been, without a doubt, the absolute most ridiculous and infuriating exit from a company I have ever had. I feel like an afterthought and have no support for moving to a new position. I lost a MONTH of preparation to change jobs and I am now searching from behind schedule. If you are offered a position through KForce I highly, HIGHLY recommend you consider all your options and be aware of what exiting the company can involve.
