Pros

Disclaimer: I was a top performer, averaging around 10K in spread for 9 months prior to leaving Nice foot in the door out of college Uncapped commission (tough to accomplish the high threshhold, though) Solid resources to identify candidates Awesome if you get in with the correct team (i.e., seasonsed sales rep w/ good territory)

Cons

Ridiculous expectations Extreme micromanagement (20 "progress" meetings per week) Long, long hours (spent 30 minutes a day there just for face time) Non existent work/life balance Inexperienced and untrained managers Depending on where you are, DBO and Account Manager arrogance Roller coaster ride - good when its good, bad when it's bad Unpredictable product - people Popularity contest Need to really excel to make more than $70k from recruiting chair High attrition and internal turnover makes it hard to get comfortable Too political

Pros

It was my first job out of college. Yes, I learned a lot of great skills but at the expense of poor training and lack of camaraderie. When I started, at least benefits were company paid but soon that disappeared. I learned a lot about HR and client relations but wasn't worth the stress and lack of respect I received.

Cons

I was a regional leader in my role, but even that wouldn't support a promotion since they were handed out on whomever the branch manager wanted to kiss their ass. Despite situations where I was the only person working the back end or trying to run things smoothly from an operational standpoint, I was given no power, respect or was treated like an outcast since I wasn't in a recruiting role. No promotion was ever given despite my successes and even when I was awarded for my leadership from company headquarters (award not given by my branch manager), it was a slap in the face since I wasn't named on the award. Rather, it was given as an office award, as if other people were responsible for my success.

Cons

one step up from slave labor. this company will beat you down until you break and quit, not to mention other companies will offer 3x what aerotek would for your services.
