Pros

I enjoyed some of my coworkers. Once you work here, you will be beyond grateful for every job that follows.

Cons

This place is just gross. The micromanagement, gaslighting, and manipulation are off the charts. In addition to the office environment being as toxic as it gets, the company itself is in the middle of an identity crisis. They are trying to rebrand themselves as a services organization but their “services” are pretty much just bundled staffing engagements. They can’t compete with true technology partners and integrators. If someone told me I had to go back to work here, I would feel like the person in a horror movie that escapes captivity and runs to the nearest road in an attempt to ask for help only to have the first car that they encounter being driven by the murderer they were trying to escape.

Pros

Good opportunity to learn on the job. Able to meet with people in the industry both with TEKsystems and Microsoft. Good hands on experience with an AI data center

Cons

Sever lack of work 80% of days. Contract position got let go 3 months ahead of earliest anticipated date. Low overall responsibility within role (most contractors could only work basic tickets. Anything requiring more troubleshooting was reserved for full time employees). TEKsystems management was far removed from what was actually happening day to day onsite. Was led to believe that there would plenty of contract to hire positions when there were only a handful and were already taken.
