Pros

Diverse solutions, still somewhat powerful job site

Cons

When I joined the company in 2010 I was extremely impressed with just about every aspect of the business. Once the Apollo private equity animals came into the picture everything changed. Cuts to staff (including many good people), customer service, operations, IT, etc. Issues and problems that took hours to fix started to take days and weeks. Productivity slowed. Clients suffered. Then cuts to reps' travel allowance, cuts to their health benefits, laying off people that had given the company 5, 10, or in some cases more years of loyal service with surprise phone calls. Had a round of layoffs in sales just weeks after the Apollo acquisition. Then Chief Sales Officer set expectation that this was not going to happen again. Well it did. Lousy severance packages for those laid off of one week for every year, which can only be described as pathetic and heartless. Basically a total disgrace as to how they treated people. I would stay away until Apollo is out of the picture. Maybe then the company can start to get to where they used to be as an industry leader with a positive work culture.
