      Pros

      The team atmosphere is great. Lots of helpful people all working together for the customer.

      Cons

      Some employees work less than adequately and have a sense of entitlement because of their experience or years having worked there. It can sometimes be upsetting to other employees that have to pick up the slack.

      Pros

      Close to home Flexible hours Good people

      Cons

      Pay is low and not close to being competitive. I've been at Applied for 9 years, yet I feel there is no room for advancement. I've asked about advancement opportunities in my "self-eval" several years in a row and it is never discussed. Feel very stuck and at a dead end. If you want to keep good employees give them reasons to stay.

      Pros

      Despite Applied being a long distance from the loop, where most other cool software is created, it is a pretty amazing organization. It's the largest software provider in the Midwest and has a portfolio of products that represents most technologies being utilized these days. Amazing company success records, a really loyal customer base and a very genuine industry keep it cooking. The place is nearly 30 years old and has an incredible story. they have adopted agile, they have great senior leadership that makes good decisions and is changing the culture to be very relevant. I like working there and feel supported and like I have a lot of options, especially given their growth goals. Overall I would recommend this company - honest and growing and there are options here for some long term development.

      Cons

      There used to be a very traditional, conservative culture there. Lots of people work IN the office still, even in the departments where most other software companies invite their employees work from home. Management should recognize that as a global software company, people can live anywhere and work from anywhere, I think they are recognizing this, and now they have a ton of offices too so not everyone is in one place. The industry they serve is even more conservative with technology and so it's not the edgiest place to work - but that also means you can hit it out the park without too much innovation - just enough. It's getting interesting with international needs.
