Anybody have any insights on a firm called TekSystems? Brother-in-law is getting out of military and looking to apply there. I've never heard of them or worked with them, so told him I'd ask here. Thanks in advance!

It’s a decent contracting shop / staffing firm. You could do a lot worse and they make an honest effort to staff people, but if there’s no contract there is no work.

This is assuming they are interviewing for a contract role facilitated by Teksystems. If you’re working directly for them it’s a decent company and you’ll have more stability.

Lots of companies use them for staff augmentation,/ tech staffing, my view is that it is a good company for short and long term staffing around common technologies such as PowerBI dev, sys or db admins, I think they will even train their people - your brother in law may not have much of a choice where he gets staffed though, but neither do we in Consulting.
I think some companies will do arrangements to contract to hire., where the resource will go through TekSystems for a period of time and if the client loves the resource, they will hire.

Very little exposure here but my impression was not bad. If he's got a few months left he should really try for a skillbridge like the corporate fellowship program or work with the honor foundation (if SOF).

Staff aug / contracting shop. I’ve hired a couple people from there to subcontract roles with specific skills / price point. Completely fine as a starting point but I think he’ll still need to go on client interviews and get locked to a client before he works/gets paid.

They’ve been great as a staff aug / contracting services. Team seems really knowledgeable and they’ve been great at ensuring any staff would be a good fit.
