Randstad

"The only real benefit of working at this company was the flexibility—it’s great that you can work from home for most days of the week. Unfortunately, this doesn't make up for the many flaws and workplace toxicity: Leadership is outdated and ineffective, frequently changing direction with little clarity. Over my 6 years there, I had 5 different managers, which speaks to the lack of consistency and strategic vision. While the company claims to promote diversity and inclusion, most of the leadership is male, and the few female leaders tend to mirror the same traditional, male-dominated mindset. Additionally, if you're an expat and don’t speak Dutch, you might find yourself excluded, especially during informal team activities like lunch. In conclusion, I do not recommend Randstad as an employer. I encourage you to find an employer that truly honors its values and fosters an inclusive culture for women and for all. "

"You will be expected to do more than the men who work here. All of my male counterparts were able to get away with not hitting goals whilst I had to work extra hard to prove myself"

"There are lots of amazing female executive role models at Randstad - and they are actively involved in mentoring and sponsoring other women. "

"Randstad really tries to promote women in leaderships positions but much more can be done for example to have a more proactive talent mangement in place"

"Nothing. to say about this employer they place you in temp positions with various employers."

"This is not applicable as this is a contract job, not FTE."

"Many women leaders in upper management to look up to."

"From my experience the company treated women and men fairly equal in the outsourcing areas. I worked for this company for over 3 years as a contract outsourcing employee supporting one of their major clients. The company offers competitive salaries and work from home but the trade-offs in other areas are great. They don't offer incentives or bonuses for above and beyond work. They don't give performance evaluations, raises and meaningful development training. Health benefits are average. Vacation benefits are below average, EX. 2 weeks vacation. Three weeks vacation is reserved for those that have worked for the company for at least 5 years."
