Pros

They did get me a job. That's something. I have had such a terrible experience, I have nothing else good to say.

Cons

I was placed as a contractor through TEKsystems with my client. My paychecks come from TEKsystems. Out of the 8 weeks I have worked there so far, TEKsystems has somehow messed up the paychecks for 3 of those weeks. I was initially not paid for 2 of those weeks; 1 has been resolved so far. The 3rd week, they overpaid me, then backed out that paycheck from my bank account, but has not yet adjusted my pay stubs, so my gross earning (used for tax reporting) is wrong. Every time I call the recruiter in charge of my account, I get excuses, apologies, and promises that there will be no more issues. After 3 times, I have lost confidence in this. I have called the corporate office to speak with someone actually in charge; I have yet to get a call back. TEKsystems has 2 jobs: find me a job and pay me accurately and on-time. The latter has been a frustrating and maddening experience, especially considering I am spending my personal time trying to fix this mess. Never. Again. Job seeker beware.

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.
