Pros

you learn how micromanagement works

Cons

I was recruited while I was skeptic due to the negative reviews written on glass door. After 7 months, I can confirm that all the negative reviews were correct. I regret the time I waisted working there. Constant control and micromanagement are the core of management at Vaco. Run! and do not stay there unless you are in need and want to do brainless job. I was pointed at in a meeting and called out by name specifically in front of 14 other employees and told that I should do a task as an (unknown) employee did it before, while I was never trained and aware of it. Meetings have no constructive outcome and are nothing more than cheap talks. If you want to work there just butter up leadership and do not worry about good work and quality because it has no value and you may get harassed by leadership anyway. Do an online course, look for other jobs and think well before you decide to work at Vaco. It has been a while that I work for another company and I can see and feel the difference. Vaco’s working environment is very toxic.

Pros

They reached out to me. Followed up with me and kept me informed throughout the entire process.

Cons

None. The assignment is region specific but that has nothing to do with Vaco

Pros

Vaco placed me in an IT Governance/Architecture contract role at $xxx/hour and was hands-on throughout the entire process. They guided me through every stage of the interview, provided great prep, and kept communication tight. If you’re a senior tech professional looking for high-value contract placements, I’d highly recommend working with them. They’re responsive, professional, and clearly invested in your success — not just filling a seat.

Cons

None I can Think of
