Pros

I’m honestly trying to think of one, but I’m so mentally drained from the horrible work environment that I can’t produce a single Pro currently.

Cons

To understand the below cons, I will provide the context that Apex bought out too many companies too fast and now is underperforming as a whole: - Outright admitted they will not be hiring any further Americans as it’s cheaper to outsource jobs to India for preparer level work (entry level- so no more staff analysts or interns) and Canada for “reviewer” level work (parenthesis because the people they are hiring from Canada are on work visas from India). - The India hires lack fundamental accounting knowledge, professional courtesy and communication skills, and most notably, accountability- but they pay them a literal fraction of what they would pay educated and talented individuals in the USA. Not the upper management’s problem- they don’t have to go back and forth and deal with the poor performance- we, the Americans who take pride in our work and care for our clients do. - Because of the aforementioned subpar business plan on Apex’s part, they no longer have money (I’m sure they actually do but upper management wants to make sure they line their pockets first, more than likely) for our compensation. So, expect VERY underwhelming raises and bonuses- I mean it. It’s downright insulting. - The higher-ups here at Apex are just so downright out-of-touch and it’s glaringly obvious that they don’t know how to remedy their mistakes and turnover accelerates to an exceedingly alarming rate and client satisfaction drops to the floor. - Apex refuses to fire those poorly performing individuals… so you are stuck with them.
