Pros

Returned phone calls and actually talked to me when I started working for them. Very courteous when you're making them money. They do get involved with the clients, which is quite nice.

Cons

Once you get on the job site, you're on your own. They give you a big talk about them helping you with equipment you might need to get your job done or with any other concerns you might have, but don't really mean it. They NEVER return phone calls or e-mails to contractors. I had no idea whether I would return to work the next week until the very last minute. They turn a blind eye to politics or when a contractor bribes the client to get hired. As long as they're getting paid, right? Once you're contract ends, they spit you out. They do keep track of who worked where, but would rather waste time putting up a post on monster or craigslist than to contact a contractor. Experience means nothing over there.

Pros

Good opportunity to learn on the job. Able to meet with people in the industry both with TEKsystems and Microsoft. Good hands on experience with an AI data center

Cons

Sever lack of work 80% of days. Contract position got let go 3 months ahead of earliest anticipated date. Low overall responsibility within role (most contractors could only work basic tickets. Anything requiring more troubleshooting was reserved for full time employees). TEKsystems management was far removed from what was actually happening day to day onsite. Was led to believe that there would plenty of contract to hire positions when there were only a handful and were already taken.
