Vantaggi

-Great community, supportive coworkers, kind management; the office is run in a way that's intended to foster strong friendships

Svantaggi

-Long work hours; instilled culture of showing up early (6:45am) and staying late (most nights past 6pm) -Work hard play hard attitude that, more often than not, interferes with getting your work done (long group lunches, playing games during the work day, etc.) and typically results in longer work days since you'll have to stay later -Cold-calls. All day. For months until you build a network. You're essentially a telemarketer for the entire first year you work there. -Base pay in major cities isn't too far off from the official poverty line income rate. The salaries they flash around when you're interviewing are those of people who've worked countless hours for years, so don't be fooled into thinking it'll be your salary any time soon.

Vantaggi

- 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.

Svantaggi

- 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.
