Pros

If you meet your numbers and put in a strong work ethic, then you will be compensated well. People will help you as long as you are trying. The culture is unmatched - I love everyone that works in the office. Happy hours! Plenty of room for advancement as the company is constantly evolving

Cons

Personally, this wasn’t the place for me due to the lack of work/life balance. It’s a sales job so expect to work more than 40 hours a week. If you are someone that wants a 9-5, 40 hrs a week, kind of job - this isn’t for you. Again, since it is sales, the grind never stops! You will start to gain momentum and start making money quickly but it’s likely that sales will drop and your pay will be reflected on that - unstable pay. The company is ran based on old school thinking. No flex hours or remote days until you hit your sales goal which takes about 1.5 years to do. There is zero diversity in the office and the diverse people that they have left, are hating it. Culturally insensitive at times. Extremely cliquey

Pros

- Decent pay to start. - Account manager is responsive, engaging, and a serious advocate for you and your contract. - Gain access to Udemy Business to build more skills.

Cons

- The benefits suck. - High recruiter turnover with highly variable experience trying to work with them-- some are good, most are not. - Once you are placed, you will be promised regular meetings and then never hear from the recruiter again. - Trying to find a new contract if you are unhappy with your current placement is nearly impossible and I don't believe they are incentivized to help you move at all. - You have to manually request a raise and depending on how you negotiated your contract, you may or may not have the ability to receive one. - There is a cap to how much they will pay you for the contract so even if you work that position 4 years, once you hit that cap you are stuck. I originally submitted my resume with TekSystems when I had finished my degree and never heard back. Many years later, I was approached on LinkedIn by a TekSystems recruiter for a position and he had no idea I was in the system previously. Working with him was good, and I did get the position. Then I never heard from him again and I've had 4 or 5 different recruiters whose names I could not tell you if I tried since then. There's supposed to be monthly calls, they never happen.
