Pros

I learned so much from training, from my superiors, and just by doing the job day in and day out. They have really good training program and now have a leads program, which in my opinion has more downfalls than productive but for new people who have no idea what they are doing, it’s a good concept.

Cons

Volitile and hostile work environment. Favoritisms is a widely known and publicized issue. If you polled 100 employees, 80 percent would tell you that at some point they felt they were on the opposite end of favoritism. Office leadership is horrible. They bring down the morale of the team. A lot of gossip from leadership which brings a sense of distrust from the employees. It’s u fortunate because TEK was a great place to work years ago. It seems as though their leadership training has really gone under and no one is willing to recognize it. Diversity and inclusion might as well go out the window. Don’t believe me, seek out pst employees who’s been impacted by this. they will be more than honest about how they felt here.

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.
