Pros

Decent benefits, base salary compensation is decent, bonus potential is good in most years based primarily on performance. The "players of the game" are rewarded unjustly and unequal to performance. As with any large corporation there a good and great employees.

Cons

Sr. Management is very disingenuous and dishonest creating a toxic work environment where employees are constantly guarded and always unsure of job performance even when praised or acknowledged. Sr. management conduct creates a culture of dishonesty in employees where backstabbing and additional disingenuous behavior is fostered and even supported by management for the "players" in the system. A very poor culture exists within AEP. Sr. Management "talks the talk" but they fail to "walk the walk".
