Good morning,…read more Everybody's experience may be different and better but I'll rate mines a 3/10. I was helped with employment and in my contract it was six months to hire from temp to permanent with the company I would be employed with. When informing Maham and Quadrant of this they both informed it was nothing they could do and to wait it but my contract said different. I don't think they valued my time or communicated properly with my management. They would have me communicate things they should have communicated to my manager. After one year and four weeks I was made permanent with my employer without the help of Quadrant. Quadrant once again did not communicate with me at all or the best with me. There were multiple issues more than once I had to handle without the help of Quadrant. If you are looking for employment as soon as possible I would recommend but I unfortunately would not work with Quadrant again I would probably find employment myself like I have previously or go through another temp agency.

I've been working with Layla through the hiring agency for almost a year now, and every interaction…read morehas been meaningful and informative. She has a true talent for pairing candidates with companies based not just on skills and experience, but also personality and work ethic. Layla's approach is welcoming, passionate, and genuinely warm. She really listens--both to what the employer is looking for and what the candidate needs--and takes the extra steps to make sure it's the right fit for both sides. That level of care makes a huge difference. It's been a pleasure working with her, and I'm hopeful to transition from a temporary role into a long-term position with her continued support.

Warning: Exploitative, Unethical Practices and No Accountability…read more Avoid this agency at all costs. As an experienced professional with a master's degree, I was subjected to the most exploitative, dehumanizing, and financially damaging nightmare of my career. This agency prioritizes commissions over the dignity and security of the candidates they claim to represent. If they could create such a disastrous placement for me, then they can do this to entry-level candidates with far less protection. The recruiter, Charitha, paired me with a CEO who had already terminated and disparaged a prior candidate. Instead of vetting this client with basic professional judgment, she aligned herself with him, using high-pressure tactics to secure a spontaneous commitment from me over the phone. Charitha even pressured me for a 5-star review before my contract began, which explains their inflated 4.8 star rating. This manufactured feedback scam prioritizes fake optics over actual results. The narcopath CEO demanded "loyalty" and long-term commitment, while using me as a temporary placeholder as he secured the return of a former employee. Based on this fraudulent inducement, I turned down a serious opportunity with an IP firm. The CEO--who neglected onboarding, refused to introduce me to staff, and left me idling--then terminated my contract within the first week. He admitted that he "lacked the operational structure and resources to onboard a new hire." He delivered the termination with a disturbing smile, calling it "exciting news" for him. Contemptuous and Condescending Culture This agency uses the most condescending, aggressively micromanaging, and infantilizing language I have ever seen. They treat experienced professionals like unruly high school interns with no common sense. Most embarrassing is their "Leaving the Nest" podcast that they encourage you to listen to on the way to interviews. During my placement, I was subjected to illegal and unethical behaviors: Illegal inquiries: The CEO explicitly asked my age, while acknowledging that doing so was "inappropriate and illegal." His demeanor became hostile after learning that I was older than he expected. Data and privacy breaches: I was given access to prior employee emails without any security protocols. I was expected to operate under the full name of the employee who was coming back to replace me, whose signature was never removed. The full name of the employee who had been terminated before me--whom this CEO repeatedly disparaged, including outlining the reasons for their termination--was also available to me. I have never seen such egregious data privacy and confidentiality violations, and I am confident that my own information is now similarly exposed in their system. Unprofessionalism and disrespect: The CEO used derogatory language (including the b-word) during the interview and refused to reimburse agreed-upon parking expenses at termination: another petty power move layered on top of the discard. ROCS's Response -- Deflection and Zero Accountability: When I reported these serious concerns, ROCS abandoned me. They immediately shifted into corporate deflection mode to protect their liability, offering no condemnation of the employer's actions and no remedy for the situation. Charitha offered zero apology, and repeatedly tried to avoid a written record by pushing me for a phone call. The agency refused to pay me for weeks following my termination. Tom Moore, their co-founder, offered basic parking reimbursement and a perfunctory "sorry to hear about your job; that's unfortunate how that ended." Bottom Line ROCS is a bloodless, transactional agency that treats professionals as disposable assets. There is a reason they target young professionals and recent grads: no mid-level or experienced professionals would tolerate this level of malpractice, contempt for candidates, and complete absence of accountability. I have reported the employer for his legal and ethical violations. If you care about your professional and financial wellbeing, avoid these predators.

I read the previous review and felt I could offer a more fair and balanced opinion on Booz Allen…read moreHamilton. Firstly, this location is their headquarters and in the heart of Tyson's Corner. Booz Allen had owned and occupied 3 connected towers but I believe 1 of the 3 is now occupied by another corporation. They have numerous other locations in the DC Metropolitan area as well as across the United States. Secondly, as for health benefits, there are several choices ranging from HMO to PPO. As with most PPO's the high deductible was a decision forced largely by government legislation (and not horrible company bureaucrats). Some companies have been able to work in "stipends" by way of a HSA contributions and other have not. Booz Allen does contribute a stipend to the yearly HSA, which is a triple tax deduction. Thirdly, promotions are as merit worthy as any other employer in the beltway. Building a network does not require one to become an alcoholic, but rather requires you to get to know your peers, active participation in Booz Allen Hamilton sponsored initiatives and exemplary client facing delivery. Booz Allen Hamilton is a large services/staffing company, so differentiating yourself may require out of the box thinking (creativity), consistency and leadership sponsorship. I personally have not witnessed the need to "drink" or become an alcoholic. Fourth, there is truth to a services company needing to make money. Since Booz Allen Hamilton has over 90% of it's revenue from the federal government, it is natural to feel a push in times where government budgets for services are shrinking. The only way an individual can get a promotion is if the client is willing to pay more for the resource or there is a vacancy at a higher level (due to contract growth).

I had a lot of choices when it came to healthcare and everyone there makes you feel secure and included. There are countless opportunities to network and participate at Booz Allen sponsored events and I have personally attended a lot of them, where you will talk face to face with VP's who actually treat you as a valuable person. My career manager is my greatest advocate and I feel safe at Booz Allen knowing that he will help me stay working and fit where it makes me the happiest. They care about what your passion is and teaching you what you need to know including paying for certifications and providing training. It will be a tough day if I ever have to leave this company, as I do not think I will find anything better because I do not think there is anything better.

Bonnie is truly a professional in every sense of the word! She has many years of experience in the industry and it shows; her expertise and knowledge are both remarkable and immeasurable. Not even a week after meeting Bonnie, she had me scheduled to interview at the most reputable firm in DC. It was nerve-wrecking but Bonnie was right by my side every step of the way. She constantly kept in touch via e-mail, phone calls, and texts and prepped me for both the question portion of the interview as well as the testing phase. I consider myself lucky to have worked with Bonnie. Hopefully, I won't need to use her in the future; however, if I or anyone I know in the law field needs a recruiter in the future, I will always recommend Bonnie!
