Pros

Great family oriented culture. They have an uncanny ability at being able tie together personal and monetary goals in perfect harmony. Like yeah the point is to get placements, earn commission, but it doesn’t really feel like work, it feels like you are just making a difference in people’s lives by helping them get jobs which we are—and so at Aerotek it’s like never forget that. You just happen to get money when you do it.

Cons

We have a feedback culture where people are asked to deliver feedback. But honestly it doesn’t work if people aren’t open to it or willing to change. It feels like a slick way to make employees feel like they have a voice but really it’s just to get us to heed what leadership is saying when they deliver feedback. It’s some slick psychological manipulation (I say that in jest). Otherwise no complaints, people are kind, it’s a professional diverse environment, where you can create your reality and make as much as you want. The best part is they give you a great base pay for security. I love my manager, director, and peers.

Pros

Great people, great training, great entry level opportunity to get into recruiting and sales. If you are successful you will make more here than about anywhere else. Performing Recruiters are making $55k-$75k. Great Recruiters are making $100k+. Every large office has salespeople making $200k-$400k. Culture is 100% committed and generally cool type-A's you would want to have a beer with. The skills, drive, and sense of urgency you learn at Aerotek serve you well anywhere you may go later.

Cons

If you are just looking for a low-commitment 8-5 job while posting on social media about where you are partying that night...you will not like Aerotek. Success requires an all in approach both in work ethic and active support of the culture. That is not for everyone. There are Political Science grads 3 years out of college making $200k+, but there is a price to be paid. All the tough work comes first. If you are not up for the level of work and commitment, Aerotek is not for you. If you are, none of this is really a "con" As far a real cons go, the benefits are only OK, and finding work/life balance is pretty difficult.
