Pros

The front line management are great. Very available, and receptive. The salary would be good if they paid for holidays, any time off or benefits. Project is great.

Cons

Teksystems initial salary offer does not include ANY days off, or benefits. They don't tell you this when they make an offer. I found out after the fact when I was signing the contract - after I had turned down other companies. No holidays, sick leave, vacation or benefits - all are paid for by employee separately. The benefits they offer are very expensive, and the bottom rung. All of us here can't wait for Teksystems to lose the contract - but according to the confidentiality agreement, we can't work for ANY company at this agency for 6 months after we leave Teksystems - even if they lay off.

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.
