Stable, profitable company that's still growing

Business Outlook

Pros

Warm, accessible, smart executive team. After 35+ years, the company is continuing to grow and scaling appropriately. They value their people and do the right thing.

Cons

Compensation - though the problem has been identified and they are working on a solution. The problem is, it just may not be soon enough for those experiencing wage compression due to longer tenure.

Pros

Wonderful teams of co-workers who all seem to really care about the work they do and client satisfaction. It’s the people at Applied that have made it the successful tech company that it is. The flagship program is well designed and an industry favorite.

Cons

Low pay compared to competition Micromanaging timesheets Lack of opportunity for advancement Expensive health coverage No stipend for remote office Employee well-being and mental health support is only given lip service

Business Outlook

Pros

Continues to grow no matter economic situation Commits to options for employee happiness Encourages employee movement within the company Strong technical/business leaders to learn from E-Team appears to have a good balance between company and employee needs

Cons

Still catching up on salaries Not sure about commitment to 'long term' remote work vs. desire to 'strongly suggest' hybrid structure Would like a stronger contribution to 401k from company. To be fair, I don't industry average to know where we stand.
