Pros

There are no pros to working for this company.

Cons

I had high hopes after we were bought out by APG but quickly realized we went from bad to worse. I should have known when the on boarding from HR felt like we were getting in line for slaughter. Very sad. Not welcoming at all. You are just a number to them. They don’t care about you as a person. Upper management continually comes up with products to sell hoping something sticks, we look pathetic to our customers. The vibe is a continual fire sale. Look at the other reviews and believe what they say. Most of upper management are from other corporate papers nationwide, they are essentially destroying a formerly locally owned business.
