Pros

*TEKsystems hires people with no recruiting experience and teaches them how to recruit well. They have a great training program for recruiters and hire some really bright people. *You have an opportunity to do well financially, given that you are in a hot market with and you get partnered with a great salesperson. *Camaraderie in the office was great. TEK hires great people and though the work can be intensive, you can build great relationships withink an office.

Cons

*Pay is not commensurate with what other recruting firms pay for internal employees. *Successes are rarely highlighted or valued. *Promotability seems to based upon popularity, rather than qualifications. *Favoritism is a huge problem across the firm, so if you're not in the "favorite" pool, your chances of being promoted or working on the best positions are slim.

Pros

good contract customer was expectin at least a year plus of working with a a company called microsoft. made good friends at the last job i did with them.

Cons

contract barely lasted 5 months for me, less for others. I felt used as a tax write off, They laid us off without notice. We had suspected it would happen again after the first time 300 people got let go. When it happened the first time we were surprised now the second time I got to be angry. They lack communication and knowing how to handle an overpopulated work place and proper protocol about laying people off. for some people who relocated and they have still not recieved pay and since their contract is over they may not even recieve it.
