Pros

High paced, Lots of sales training, Fun work environment, Attractive co workers, Benefits are OK, Lot of opportunity for advancement, and lots of outside work activities.

Cons

You are literally a cog in the machine that is TEK. The hours are long each week (60) and you are always pushed to stay later and later. After work typically the office will go out drinking, and this seems to be encouraged.

Pros

Training and exposure to the IT industry, opportunity to make great money if a top performer, career growth

Cons

Work/life balance is very minimal, it is not uncommon to work 7:30-6:00 4-5 days per week. The base salary is low and commission is low to begin with until you become established however the company is making strides towards trying to retain newer employees with bonuses

Pros

Most of the time they will answer the phone and sometimes they will return your call from voicemail. They have free online training video courses. They will come around about once per month and take all of their employees out to lunch. At least you get some work.

Cons

Absolutely no benefits. Offers go to their favorites first regardless of their qualifications. They will ALWAYS offer you lower than other companies recruiting for the same position. They keep secret the actual client's name until you commit with them to avoid competition whereas other companies will clearly tell you. For example, I was submitted for a position by one company and offered $25 per hour. The next day TEKsystems calls me about a job with the same description and confirmed that it was the same client. "I will try and see if I can get you $15." No thanks. I will take the exact same job with the other company at $25. Their recuiters are always getting company paid benefit trips to Cancun and such as bonuses for all of the money that they saved the company with their low-ball tactics. Their online video courses can only be accessed with an older XP machine which has not had IE or flash player upgraded.
