Pros

Reasonable technology and some decent people

Cons

Appalling unprofessional senior management who do not understand strategy and look to blame others for their own shortcomings - they fire people on a whim to create a toxic work environment and demotivate staff. They have limited knowledge of APCON's market, of general business strategy and professional business execution - they managed to contract sales in a growing market last year in which all of their competitors grew which takes some doing.

Thank your post and your feedback. We do have some great people working here who make our products shine. As far as your comment on upper management, we feel that an engaged CEO and upper management team is not necessarily a bad thing as they bring in a wealth of knowledge and experience to the table as well as their vision for making sure we not only sustain, but grow the company. I do appreciate you stating that upper management should trust the people on their teams to make sound decisions. We agree with you 100% and we’re working towards empowering our teams to be able to be a part of the positive direction APCON is headed. - Posted on behalf of the APCON Leadership Team.

Pros

APCON is an excellent company for anyone looking to advance their marketing career. As a Marketing Strategist, I have had the opportunity to work on diverse and challenging projects that have significantly enhanced my skills. The management genuinely values creativity and encourages out-of-the-box thinking. The team environment is collaborative and supportive, making it easy to share ideas and innovate. 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:

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.
