Pros

Very friendly environment! Ample room to move up! Very fair salary! Applied is a very well rounded company that truly cares about it's employees. It is difficult to describe, but it has the benefits of being a large company, while maintaining the caring, close-knit feel of a small company. PLEASE, please believe me that this is a wonderful place to work. I know that I'm not going anywhere any time soon. I've found my place of work.

Cons

There are not very many cons that I can think of. You will need to have SOME knowledge in your area of hiring, but that is applicable to most jobs, so it's not really something that should be counted against Applied. Even if you have no knowledge or experience, however, they walk you through everything and train you slowly until you are ready. You will never be throw into the deep end. They teach you to swim long before you are given access to the pool.

Pros

Great people and culture - very relaxed and cooperative atmosphere. Commonly has people retiring after a decades-long employment. Make a good effort to listen to and encourage employees through various programs for recognizing things like excellence, artistic talent, submission of ideas for improvement, employment milestones.

Cons

Significant growth results in growing pains in a number of areas. Somewhat remote location may hinder recruitment going forward.

Pros

Outstanding culture! The team really believes in what it is doing, which is easy to do because we have great products you can get behind, lots of industry experts on the team, and friendly people to work with. Most of upper management are down to earth people that are great to work for/with. Internal opportunities are realistic. I’ve seen many people transfer or move up, myself included. Work-life balance is also great. Managers tend to understand that “life happens” and are flexible when you have personal matters to deal with. Benefits are standard but solid, and there a lots of events and perks that make the environment fun (holiday parties, free bagel day, Thanksgiving lunch, summer BBQ, Halloween costume contest, random employee surprise days, birthday paid day off, relaxed dress code, work from home opportunities). Working here is not without its stresses being that we are growing rapidly, but you can come in, have fun, and really feel like you make a difference if you are willing to put in the work.

Cons

Not the place to “get rich” unless you work in sales, upper management, or a few other select areas, though efforts to improve compensation seem to be happening as of late. There is some lack of accountability at the middle-management level – sometimes messages are not disseminated properly or managers don’t address little problems because they don’t want to deal with them. The of the guard over the last few years resulted in some battles between “old” and “new” ways, but that seems to be settling down.
