Pros

Better be money motivated or you won't get hired. Then realize that you're making like $10/hour because you put in 50+/week and you'll wonder why you hoped to get hired. Started paying people a bonus for how many years of service they've been with the company while their best and brightest left for better opportunities. Great place to work a year if you can make it that long to build some business acumen, otherwise don't believe the lies they feed you during the interview process....none of it is true.

Cons

Those in power have never managed anyone before so they don't understand how to build a team, motivate others or help you build your career. Party or leave, after working your 10-11 hour day, you better go out for happy hour or you'll be shunned and thought of as not a teammate. Better not try and make friends, because you'll be looked at as a "clique" and detrimental to the team. Keep your significant others away as much as they try to suck them in and brainwash them, they'll hate the company from day 1. The company values are completely backwards. Party and drink like we're in college then get angry at those who make poor decisions...double standards galore. Do yourself a favor and run in the complete opposite direction from Aerotek. There are a lot more quality companies in Omaha, don't waste your time with one that is predicated on lies and greed.

Pros

Good training program Some very nice people that work there Good pay if you are a top recruiter Ability to get promoted within 1-2 years Easy to get another recruiting job

Cons

Poor management The current senior leader has had almost the entire office (50 people) quit or get fired in 2012. Granted, there were some bad employees, and there still are several bad AM's that do anything they can to save face. It's just bad business. Long hours-- M-F from 7:30-6:30 and don't be late or you'll get fired Entitled Account Managers that think they rule the world Preferred treatment for men Forget using your vacation and personal time-- they won't let you You will have to work from home when you are sick, or they may accuse you of not being sick and make you come in "Optional" happy hours until 10 PM Fearing for your job on a daily basis because coworkers throw you under the bus

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.
