Pros

Relaxed environment and good place to build resume experience for out of college grads.

Cons

Several years of raises that constantly fall below 1 and 2 percent of salary across the board in all departments. Management has blamed economy and senior management. Meanwhile Applied has made two major acquisitions and spent renovations on granite counter topped bathrooms and a top heavy staff of VPs.

Pros

The teammates that I worked with were generally really great. Decent opportunity for learning

Cons

The benefits were not great, 3 year vesting to get a 401k match, insurance was sub par, time off was below average. In addition to this the management team is having a lot of turnover along with getting rid of people systematically (or what feels targeted). This is following some acquisitions that could have been great but because the teams are all operating in silos with what feels like no cohesive direction from the senior leadership. The products that are being sold are very old feeling/looking with no real changes on the horizon. Pair this with high level executive leadership changes that are pointing to a potential sale of the company which likely will come with more changes and loss of employment.
