Pros

Office Culture Teamwork Great training Get your feet wet Compensation for top performers Learning multiple different skill sets; Recruiting, Account Management, Business Development, HR, Sales

Cons

Work Life Balance - When the bare minimum is 55 hours a week and any request for time off is met with the phrase "It's your career"... Account Managers are usually kids a year out of college who are given other children to manage. Don't believe the lies during your interview process. Unless you are walking into a situation where you will be lead by a seasoned Account Manager in a established territory your long work hours will usually not be justified until your second year working there...if then. The benefits are horrible

Pros

Great people, great training, great entry level opportunity to get into recruiting and sales. If you are successful you will make more here than about anywhere else. Performing Recruiters are making $55k-$75k. Great Recruiters are making $100k+. Every large office has salespeople making $200k-$400k. Culture is 100% committed and generally cool type-A's you would want to have a beer with. The skills, drive, and sense of urgency you learn at Aerotek serve you well anywhere you may go later.

Cons

If you are just looking for a low-commitment 8-5 job while posting on social media about where you are partying that night...you will not like Aerotek. Success requires an all in approach both in work ethic and active support of the culture. That is not for everyone. There are Political Science grads 3 years out of college making $200k+, but there is a price to be paid. All the tough work comes first. If you are not up for the level of work and commitment, Aerotek is not for you. If you are, none of this is really a "con" As far a real cons go, the benefits are only OK, and finding work/life balance is pretty difficult.
