Aerotek – “A great place to learn how to work extremely hard and multi-task in a very fast paced environment.”

Pros

You get to see the result of your hard work. There is nothing better than seeing a person get a position they really wanted and having them thank you for it.

Cons

Extremely long work hours for little pay compared to the market. Commission structure is a joke you will not make alot of money there even when you have a high commission when you look at how many hours 50-60 hrs you worked. Relationship building is going to lunches/breakfasts with strangers, who may be looking for work. People who are obsessed with Aerotek act like they are in a cult and have no real work life balance whatsoever! Every single person follows the same exact schedule which gives you no room to be creative, they want everybody to be a clone. Turnover is the worst with people leaving left and right.

Advice to Senior Management

Get an advanced degree, half of the people in management aren't business savvy and are not very intelligent, they value their time on the amount of money they have made!
