No PTO No Sick Days Lower pay for the same job, when compared to the employees in the same position that were co reacted through a different company. There is absolutely no benefit for the employee to work as a subcontractor through Apex systems, or companies like it. I recommend everyone to avoid Apex Systems and companies like it. Work for the Prime instead of being a subcontracted employee. Apex systems and companies like it offer NO TECHNICAL VALUE to a project, they’re a head hunting/recruiting company. Career opportunities, NONE. You will not be promoted when you’re subcontracted to another company. Generally your supervisor will work for the prime, and you will be stuck as an employee of Apex Systems. Apex systems will not generally “release you” when you work for them. Comensation/benefits, your pay will be lower if you compare it to someone who works for the actual company that’s contracted by a customer. Example, two techs. One works for the prime, one works for apex. The responsibilities are the same, same experience, etc. apex will put you less. Also no PTO. Culture and values…….LOL WHAT? You will never actually meet anyone from Apex systems, except other subcontracted employees. Apex systems has no culture, you’ll be lucky if you’re recruiter ever calls you again after you’re hired. They won’t even give you an apex systems shirt. Senior management, you’ll never meet them so idk. Work life balance, same as any other company.
