Pros

The company is very good in hiring talented employees.

Cons

Most new hires left within two years at best after learning that there’s absolutely no future for the company. After almost three decades, the company still claims that it’s like a new startup - meaning there is no growth in the business after all these years. The company has no strategy and the owner, who dictates every decision in the company, is completely out of touch with the market and the technology trends.

It's nice to hear that you feel like we are doing a good job of hiring talented people to fill our roles. We believe hiring the best is what makes us the best. You make a great point about being in business for 30 years and still being nimble (like a start up) enough to pivot or introduce new products as the market needs them. While there is growth within roles, we are also mindful of not bloating the organization with unnecessary leadership levels. Thank you for the review and good luck in your future endeavors.

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.
