Pros
It is evident that people take their work very seriously here by putting their best foot forward to help make APMEX a leader in the Precious Metals industry. I've quickly made friends with many coworkers, even those I've yet to actually meet in person. To be able to communicate with ease amongst other employees not only makes work easier for me, but ultimately trickles down to the customer and boasts the high level of service they receive. There are many perks right from the start: free lunch bar, covered parking, t-shirt and jacket giveaways, paid leave, insurance, continuing education benefits, bonuses, theater and basketball ticket giveaways and more!
Cons
Precious Metals was a foreign subject to me as I had no experience within this industry when I first started and at times was overwhelmed. However, this is to be expected with any new job. Maybe a week long training course for new hires, before starting their new position, would be beneficial as a way to introduce those to this industry.
