Pros

Good pay, nice environment, great people, casual dress code, very helpful in acquiring supplies needed, everyone works hard to deliver their own work load, monthly lunch celebrations, and helpful in answering questions. Great work life balance including working from home during harsh weather conditions.

Cons

Company is downsizing and getting rid of some of the amenities like the café and using vending machines instead.. Large kitchen areas for heating your own food which is mostly wasted space rarely more than 5 people using tables. As with any company there are those who are insecure in their jobs that cause unnecessary issues and worry. . .

Pros

Exposure to large, high-value accounts and complex operational challenges. The role builds resilience quickly and provides strong experience in account management, problem-solving, and cross-functional collaboration. There is a high level of ownership in day-to-day responsibilities, which can accelerate skill development for those who are self-driven.

Cons

Since the acquisition by Apollo, the work environment has noticeably declined. While new processes were introduced, leadership often did not take the time to fully understand or follow them, creating confusion and inconsistency across teams. Employees who raised questions or tried to improve processes were not always received positively, which discouraged feedback and innovation. There is also a lack of alignment between departments, leading to inefficiencies, miscommunication, and added pressure on employees managing critical accounts. Workloads are frequently excessive without adequate support, contributing to burnout and turnover. Compensation does not consistently reflect the level of responsibility and workload expected, which further impacts morale and retention. Overall, the organization feels reactive rather than structured, and direction has become increasingly unclear.
