Pros

The parking garage was pretty nice. So was the cafeteria.

Cons

Where to start? Ineffective management, c-level still expecting profits reflective of 2003, head up in the clouds company outlook. It is surprising to me that Apollo is still in business. I'm glad I sold my stock 3 years ago.

Pros

Lots of travel. Great 401K. Leading edge technology especially for customer service interactions. Leader in adult education learning platform.

Cons

Last five years were very uncertain due to the tainted corporate image and the resulting unstable company financials. Unclear communication even at the management level. Every year a new direction. Silly policies; punching the clock and the predictable performance reviews.
