After having worked at their office internally for a period of approximately a year I can say with confidence that this is a terrible place to work. They are complicit in creating, maintaining and enabling a hostile work environment. The problem starts at the top with the company president and continues through the staff, who are too afraid to do anything but go along.
They practice discrimination in their hiring and refuse to put certain candidates who are more than qualified in front of clients who don't want black employees. This place needs to be investigated by ACLU and Maryland of Labor.

This staffing agency needs to talk to one another. I receive multiple calls from multiple employees regarding the same job. One employee tells me I am ineligible for the position; another calls and tells me that I am. Yet another tells me they will check with the company to see if hours can be amended and then never calls me back. I am no longer in the job market but have received 3 calls recently from Mary Kraft employees for the same job from a year ago.
Despite telling them I am no longer seeking employment, a day or so later, another person calls. Followed by an email. So, to me, this speaks to a level of disorganization and lack of communication in this company. Would not recommend them.

Lost my job due to Covid-19 layoffs; the owner PERSONALLY contacted Lisa B. of Mary Kraft and asked her to place me in another position with another company. She COMPLETELY blew me off and stopped taking my calls and responding to my emails. Losing your only source of income during a global pandemic is bad enough. but having an agency you rely on completely disregard you as a human being adds insult to injury! Find another agency!

Mary Kraft agency targeted millenials for a new team at United Healthcare in Minnesota- processing Maryland Medicaid claims to take over from Beacon. Then they fired everyone over 50 during training giving them weak personal excuses. It was a painful experience. Be careful. I waited a month to start training for this job after they recruited me via email and interviewed me by phone. I was re-hired by a former employer days later being fired, so there's nothing wrong with my work, or work ethic.

I was offered a job. I was given one start date. They called me in early, so I quit my part time job and went. 2 days into a 4 week training class, I get called and told I was getting let go for ZERO reason. She says she's checking on it. We'll see. Now I have to find another job so I can pay my bills.

LIMITED & UNPROFESSIONAL MANAGEMENT The people there are nice, but the president is very unprofessional. She calls to discuss a position with their office, not a client, and sets up an interview for that friday. Calls the next day and leaves a message saying she has to reschedule, fine. I've called at least twice and emailed and never heard anything and it's been over a month.
I realize Mary Kraft wants to grow, but with key management this unorganized and limited I doubt that is going to happen anytime soon. There is really no excuse for that and reflects on the entire organization poorly.

They're a small outfit, but they've got a partnership with some big companies. They've sent me on a couple good temp jobs thus far with good pay, but the temp-to-hire job at the Coca-Cola plant that I was looking forward to never happened even after we went down there and took a tour of the facility. I'll give it more stars if they hook me up with something more permanent soon, so check back at a later date!

I was contacted by one of their recruiters regarding a HR position. When we spoke over the phone I asked if I had experience in payroll and benefits and I denied as I am inexperienced in those two areas. However the recruiter still seemed very interested and invited me for an interview, which turned out to be a waste of time. Apparently you need to be experienced in those two areas in order to qualify for the position.
I took off work to be told something that could have been disclosed in the phone interview. Very unprofessional. Also, they wanted me to fill out all these forms before my departure to be added to the system, but why would I fill out documents that include bank info and sign medical release forms, if I wasn't offered a position. Never heard of such thing. Watch out people!
