Amazing Compassionate Leadership - Human Resources Generalist American Physical Society Employee Review

Pros

APS leadership always amazes me at their transparency, integrity, and compassion for their employees. Since Day 1 they have allowed open discussions, listening sessions, and dialogue emphasizing voice. They have even put their money where their mouth is (as they say) and launched the company’s first ever internal conference to address issues and concerns shared by staff. They truly care about their employees and the growth of company! I consider myself blessed!

Cons

Could do better with socializing the need for change as the company grows
