Pros

Aerotek definitely teaches you the basic HR skills that you may utilize in any role you have going forward. It also teaches you to be able to work 60 hour weeks and swallow a lot of unwarranted criticism. Be prepared to learn the skill of shutting your mouth if you think something is incorrect.

Cons

The thing with Aerotek is that no matter what happens you have to get the work done. I was an hourly employee and ended up working 60 hours a week while my supervisor worked a straight 40-if that as a salary, left early on fridays, and never necessarily helped with the work; however, blamed us when something wasn't done. You're going to find if you ever work for this company that there is no work-life balance and an uncomfortable amount of turnover. I began to feel uneasy about 6 months into my employment here (about 15 people had left at this point) and as I progressed through the role, I ended up training everyone coming in (as an HR individual just out of college). They will call you a customer support associate so that they can pay you the bare minimum while forcing you to compromise several of your values in order to keep their "principles" in check. It is a shady business done by individuals who would rather instill fear into their employees in order to enforce "loyalty" than asking their employees what they'd like to see from management so they can learn from it, etc. Be very wary of speaking out of line. The policies are rigid yet able to bend in order to leave even the most engaged eager employee terminated on the grounds that they violated a policy in which they did not. Watch out if there's ever a change in leadership as anyone who is remotely tenured while this is happening is terminated or forced to throw all former leadership under the bus. There is no trust or loyalty in this company. Most individuals end up feeling as though there is a witch hunt after their jobs instead of the reliance and team work that is supposed to be felt. Wanna understand the lack of tenured leaders? Most are thrust out at the first mistake and the others are smart enough to leave on their own accord before being forced out.

Pros

you can make a lot of money very quickly if you are in with the right people

Cons

-no professional development. If all you care about is making money, this is fine. However, you won't go further than account manager or ARM. They will tell you that you can move into other management roles, but the reality is that there are so few spots for so many internal candidates that the likelihood is slim. -Ethical behavior is only presented to prospective hires and clients. There is a lot that goes on behind closed doors that would make any sane person sick. They get things done through intimidation and secrets. They will flatter you so that you will be on their team, and then force you to keep your mouth shut if you want to advance professionally. Managers frequently make fun of the recruiters in front of the whole office, and progress is attempted through shaming of employees. Managers are given free reign and no accountability to their superiors, so as a result, recruiters are treated as minions to stay until all hours of the night to make their account managers commission, holding onto the promise that one day they can get there too. -Top level management does not seem to care about the treatment or behavior of their lower level managers. I have seen serious discriminations overlooked, harassments swept under the rug, and threats made. These have been reported, and overlooked. There is absolutely no accountability or decent behavior standards.
