My employer uses Aerotek to get temps at various times, so I've spent a fair amount of time working…read morewith the people Aerotek sends us. Most of the people we get are about what you'd expect in a temp -- they need a paycheck and may or may not be a match for the job. Aerotek, like any temp agency, gets paid for putting people in jobs. So they don't much care whether the people are qualified or even motivated to try. Every day with a temp at an employer is another dollar in Aerotek's pocket. And this dollar does not come out of the employer's share of the pay for the position. It comes from the temp's share, which is one reason temp pay is so low that they qualify for food stamps. My personal annoyance with Aerotek is that they lie to the temps. I worked with temps from Aerotek, and they all said the same thing. Aerotek told them they would work 90 days, then the company would put them on the payroll at the normal pay rate, with benefits. Temp-to-hire. But that simply is not true where I work. We have a union contract, which dictates how employees move among available jobs. Temps may be hired, but only if no union employee wants the job that is open. Most of the time, temps that are hired start as utility workers on lousy shifts, and are not automatically hired into the position where they worked as a temp. In fact, the vast majority of temps are never hired. We use them as seasonal help, then cut them loose. Occasionally one or two make the payroll if we need employees. Most do not. And those hired, as I said, start as utility workers on undesirable shifts. It would be better if companies would hire their own employees. This would result in the new employees getting the actual wage being offered for their position, without a third hand (Aerotek) in the till siphoning off a living wage and turning it into a lot of sweat for not much money and no benefits.

Ive used Aerotek 2 different times in the past. The first time was great! Got a good job, they…read morehired me on and I was there for almost 3yrs till that company downsized. After that I went back to Aerotek again, got a great job, that company hired me on, 2yrs later the company transferred my entire dept to another state and this is where the 1 star rating comes in. I contacted Aerotek and got placed with Adam C. as my recruiter. He said theyll have no problem placing me, I have such a high standing with them, nothing but positive reviews from my past experience with them , etc. I gave him my criteria for a job (as thats what you do), he comes back "no problem" , then I here nothing from him. Finally he gets back to me with one job offer that is not even close to what I was looking for. Weeks go by and NOTHING. I email him several times, I leave voicemails. FINALLY, he calls me back, sounding like he rolled out of bed. I ask if something has happened that he doesn't want to work with me. He says no, that I'm a high priority for them as I do so well. That was back in October 2019!!! Im still waiting Adam C. I emailed several times, called and even reached out last week. (This is now February 2020) 4 months later!! I am already employed I simply wanted to see what his excuse would be. I recieved on my own, 3 job offers that fit my criteria perfectly! And I have been working with one of those companies since December 2019. Adam C. im not sure if it was lazyiness but you missed a great opportunity with me. I never called off, showed up on time and even worked overtime when asked during my temp-hire with Aerotek. Aerotek use to be great! Now, I wouldnt recommend them. Atleast not the Lancaster location.

Very bad experience with this company. Applied for a job at the vaccine clinic, was told they were…read moreSO busy and SO desperate for staffing so went to an orientation where we were all told how frantically busy they are, filled out a bunch of tax documents and other paperwork, and took time out of my schedule to schlep to a lab and get a drug test. And so far? Had not gotten one shift in 2 weeks and FINALLY had one coming this Saturday....and just got a notice that it had been cancelled. I haven't lived here that long so maybe there are no other options but i sure wouldn't want to rely on this very disorganized place for work. What a waste of my time dealing with them has been. How can a company whose job is STAFFING be so completely off on their needs?
