Pros
Opportunity to make a lot of money based on how hard you work. It is a young group of people, right out of college, so the atmosphere is like a post college party. The expense account is a nice feature, you can take people out to lunch and the company pays for it. It did allow me to build good relationships with people in the types of jobs I recruited. There are opportunities to travel to other offices and meet new people. The training is pretty good compared to other national recruiting firms in the US. I learned a lot while I was there.
Cons
You have to drink the Aerotek "Kool-Aid" and live, eat, breath Aerotek 24/7. If not, you will not be promoted and you will get pushed out. Management has no problems letting go of high producing people if they are not drinking buddies or golf buddies. This is a party boy culture and if you are beyond that and more mature, you will not enjoy the culture. If you are a woman with kids, forget about work life balance and trying to raise a family, it wont happen. Also, they expect you to grow grow grow, no matter the circumstances (ie you are under staffed, you lose a large account, they split your territory). When you do get to a profitable point with your clients, they will split your territory in half and give it to someone else and it will negatively affect your yearly compensation; it is a way for them to save money and not pay large amounts of commission. Also, while recruiting, I had to compete with my "partners" to fill jobs, so it was a bit confrontational at times.
