Pros

Initial training is very good

Cons

- They purposely hire new grads/people without recruiting experience so they can exploit them which includes very low commission percentage, unnecessary long working hours, etc compared to the industry standard. - Facial hair was not allowed (hopefully that has changed) - You're asked to do references on the consultant before sending them to the client - Yes, you can make a lot of money at TEKsystems but guarenteed you can make more money other places working normal working hours

Pros

good contract customer was expectin at least a year plus of working with a a company called microsoft. made good friends at the last job i did with them.

Cons

contract barely lasted 5 months for me, less for others. I felt used as a tax write off, They laid us off without notice. We had suspected it would happen again after the first time 300 people got let go. When it happened the first time we were surprised now the second time I got to be angry. They lack communication and knowing how to handle an overpopulated work place and proper protocol about laying people off. for some people who relocated and they have still not recieved pay and since their contract is over they may not even recieve it.
