Flexible work schedule. Friendly people. Variety of projects.

No culture. Employees are treated as billable hours. Benefits are below average and the ESOP is a joke. Communication from upper level management on company strategy and vision is non-existent.

Pros

The work environment is so supportive and everyone here just wants you to succeed. I haven't been here that long but I've already learned so much and it really feels like my supervisors care about me.

Cons

Applied is a successful company so things can move quickly. It's not really a con, because it means you're part of something great.
