We are sorry that your experience at Apex wasn't positive however thank you for taking the time to leave a review. In regards to having a structure in place post our business acquistions - we are conscious that in order to do this with the due diligence and sensitivity it deserves, this may take some time before the full effects are seen across the broader staff base. However, rest assured there is work being undertaken in this regard. Furthermore, our culture is something we are looking at across the Apex Group; we want to make sure that employees are happy in their work lives and feel comfortable sharing their thoughts. For example, we have recently launched an initiative re: Culture Champions. Our 2018 Employee Survey results suggested a dissatisfaction with our systems, which we are working on so that our employees have the best tools to do their jobs effectively.

Office is in a central location. Company has a good sports and social committee. Good communication from senior management.

Below market salary and benefits when compared to competitors. Structured training is non existent most is provided in ad hoc manner by colleagues. Currently engaged in aggressive expansion without rewarding current staff and cutting costs where possible.

Ensuring our colleagues are appropriately compensated for the work they do at Apex is one of our top priorities. On the job learning is often the most effective way of training staff, and something that we encourage here at Apex. We are disappointed to hear that you felt that this type of training was more ad hoc and this is something we will take on board going forward. We do have structured training through our digital learning platform and professional qualifications. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review; your thoughts will help us make Apex a great place to work. If you would like to rach our further, you can email ApexMarketing@apex.bm

Pros

Paxus is a pretty solid system that handles IR and partner allocations in 1 platform. Gained exposure to different fund structures and financial products

Cons

There isnt any formal training program. The position will really test your problem solving and critical thinking skills due to there being very little hands on guidence. The salary stinks, but if you continue to learn new things and speak on your experiences, then it isnt a lost cause.
