Pros

- The people are fantastic. Some of the smartest, hardest working folks you'll ever meet. - The products are cool and the manufacturing is top-notch.

Cons

- The CEO micromanages everyone, goes on temper-tantrums where he'll fire someone just to make himself feel better, and consistently makes everyone around him miserable. - CEO tries to control the company through fear.

Thank you for your post. I'm glad that you have found many positive things to highlight especially when it comes to our people who are our biggest asset and make our products top-notch. We believe that with a company this size and on a growth path to continue to bring in top talent and make even cooler products as you mentioned, the CEO is engaged in the evolution of the product and is indeed involved in offering his advice and 25 + years of expertise to take the product to the next level. We can certainly learn from your advice and allowing our teammates to be creative and have the flexibility to make decisions autonomously. - Posed on behalf of the APCON Leadership Team.

The leadership provides clear goals and offers constructive feedback to help employees grow. Additionally, the company invests in professional development through workshops and training sessions, which have been invaluable. The work culture promotes a healthy balance between personal and professional life, and the benefits package is competitive. Cons:

Honestly, not many. Like any fast-paced environment, there can be busy periods, but the support from the team makes it manageable.

Pros

The people who work at APCON are very nice and knowledgeable.

Cons

The headline says it all. The CEO is a rude, narcissistic bully. His input is never specific or useful, just general mean comments meant to knock employees to their knees. I was out the door as soon as I found another job.
