Pros

They are a large company that is well recognized by the training they give their employees. Great foot in the door once you get hired. They will promote you into sales in as little as a few months if you want the position and show them you want it.

Cons

Very long work hours 50+/week. They give you more and more targets to meet as you get more senior and meeting them is barely possible even with 50 hour weeks. The company has the mind set that all their employees should basically worship the company and they don't believe in work life balance although they say they do.

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.
