“Working at A-TEK these last five years has been a fantastic experience.  Not only are the Managers supportive, but the work is inspiring and life changing. I feel 100% committed to the client and their mission, and unfettered in offering solutions and attaining any goal.  A-TEK is the company of the future here and now!  Meaning, every employee should feel comfortable and recognized within their company, not just another face or ID number; as well as KNOWING what the collective mission is both on-site and off.   A-TEK provides training and resources to gain new skills and knowledge, which has changed my working life.  I’ve directly applied what I learned at training seminars and conferences to the client with wonderful success! Bravo, A-TEK.”

“How leadership operates is one of the most crucial part of any business. A-TEK’s leadership is very structural and strategic, making the company one of the strongest competitors among the Government contracting industry. I continue to work at A-TEK for three reasons: working with great people; there is a tremendous amount of trust among peers, supportive supervisors – they work with you instead of having the feeling you’re working for them; and last but not least; their leadership is very knowledgeable, structured, and competent. A-TEK is a company that opens doors, a great work environment, and strong leadership. I’d recommend working for A-TEK day and night. I’m proud and honored to be part of this wonderful team.”

“Working for A-TEK is such an amazing and refreshing experience! With over 25 years of federal contracting service, A-TEK is the only company I can truly say I have felt included, heard and supported. The A-TEK leadership as well as support staff is always accessible and swiftly provides any information needed or questioned.  It’s very rare to work for a company and have the ability to participate in providing input and opinion and know it’s recognized. Working for A-TEK gives me a feeling of belonging to a professional community who cares as opposed to being just another employee identification number and that’s why I love working for A-TEK! I continue to stay at A-TEK because I’m inspired by the leadership and the services provided. The only advice I would give to a friend about A-TEK is…APPLY! APPLY! APPLY!”

“I’ve had the pleasure of working for A-Tek for over 14 years and throughout, it’ been an amazing experience of growth and unforeseen opportunities obtained through support and resources from A-Tek.  I have grown both personally and professionally throughout my tenure with A-Tek.

I began my career with the company in 2007 in an entry-level scientist position. Throughout those years, with the encouragement of management, coupled with the fantastic educational benefits A-Tek provided, I was able to finish another degree that opened doors to new career opportunities within the company and now I’m in a position I never thought was attainable.

Our entire management team is highly approachable, sincere in helping you succeed, and passionate in their work.  You know you work with amazing leadership when they remember your family members by their first name, push you in elevating your knowledge, and are receptive to your input.

I would, without hesitation, highly encourage any close friend to work with A-Tek and am very confident their experience will mirror mine.

To say it’s been a wonderful experience is an understatement; I’ve been provided with opportunities that has allowed me to attain a position in my career that I never thought was possible and with remarkable people that make my work thoroughly enjoyable.”

“My journey at A-Tek has been nothing but pleasant ever since I joined the company under the role of BIM Manager. I am daily surrounded by a supportive team of professionals in the industry which makes working at A-Tek a place where you would not only expand your knowledge in different fields, but also feel encouraged to achieve higher. As the whole world was confronted with the uncertainties of the pandemic circumstances, the leadership at A-Tek went above and beyond to accommodate the new changes and provide a safe work environment for everyone involved. The adopted flexibility with a hybrid workplace and the bridges of communication established between employee and employer are just a few of the reasons why I am proud to be part of the big A-Tek team. Along with it, is the emphasis placed in our well-being and the genuine interest for everyone’s health. A successful company knows the worth of its squad and at A-Tek not only are your contribution and efforts valued, but they also never miss a chance to be appreciative of our hard work. The diversity of work tasks has given me the possibility to be involved in projects where I was able to acquire knowledge in new software and processes that have certainly helped in my professional expansion. I always valued a workplace where the opportunities to grow are presented to you while you are encouraged to pursue your ambitions, and at A-Tek I have found just that! A leadership that supports your attempts in bettering yourself both professionally and personally while allowing you to set up goals and following up on them constantly. Here, I have found a crew that comes together both in troubled waters and in calmer ones, with the same objective in mind: we are a team, and we are in this boat together, so we all join our forces and keep sailing. I would recommend anyone who is looking for new career opportunities to join A-Tek if they want to be part of a company who considers human values as priority while motivating your growth towards your dream goals.”
