      A great place to work if you are NCG

      Pros

      Applied is a great place to start if you are just out of college or grad school. NCG program is wonderful. Applied really gives you the oppotunity to grow and become a manager after 3-5 years. Pay is ok but not great.

      Cons

      There is no such thing called life and work balance. You are expected to work over the weekend and long hours everyday.

      Pros

      One of the main reasons to work for Applied is its global footprint and the emphasis it places on customer relationships. One gets to really understand how a large corporation works in an international setting. Other main reason is the flexibility to move to different divisions within the company and to different roles. Great place to network and meet some really interesting people.

      Cons

      1. Long work hours -> Some times the management just expects you to live for the company than to work for it 2. All work and no play 3. Cafeteria - Sucks big time. 4. Lot of travel.
