Opportunity for advancement if you can dodge the constant reorgs.
Pros
Generous vacation and sick time, %98 of education through University of Phoenix is paid by the employer, medical benefits and paid tution available as of first day or work. Various positions posible within the company. I have doubled my salary in 6 years within Apollo. There is allot of room for internal advancement. Management for the most part is hands off and light hearted. Management is not very effective here because once hired as a manager, it takes an act of god to let that person go even if performing poorly. Telecommuting is common for many employees. If you can secure a steady place in the company, you should be fairly comfortable.
Cons
Good luck surving the constant reorgs and layoffs. This is the norm with any large company but Apollo has been doing substantial reorgs for the last 4 years with no end in sight. The company has been known for laying off mass amounts of people at once. The enrollment and IT departments of the company are very susceptible to this. To come in one day and have your entry badge no longer work is not all that unusual. Salary is about industry average if not a little below here with very small yearly raises, usually in the range of 1 - 3 %. No bonuses available. There isn't any incentive program to perform above and beyond at Apollo other than self pride.
