Pros

The company offers a lot of amazing products that have been around for decades and are still unmatched by the competition. The company recently has been consolidating the number of offices to reduce the overhead as well as help with internal communication between departments. During this process they have also been able to create new positions as they work to expand and grow the business. I have watched as two associates have been promoted to Inside Sales from Customer Service. The benefits are good and we have received a yearly merit increase. The managers are all very friendly with an open door policy and really care about the employees.

Cons

Customer Service is a very stressful job and it has been stretched very thin from promotions and promotions leaving the rest of the team to cover while new applicants are interviewed and the spots are filled; this process takes entirely too long. The company is very Six Sigma focused which can make the process very rigid and not very flexible when it comes to helping those that pay us, the customer.

Pros

A lot of the teams and employees are great to work with, get on their good side and they will do anything for you. Not super professional environment so make sure you have a good sense of humor. Tons to learn and lots of opportunities to make improvements. Opportunities for advancement, but the process takes longer than it used to.

Cons

Bad labor relations, constant threats of strikes, etc. Low pay, long hours. Company not willing to spend money on projects or on its employees. Apollo management bled them dry, hopefully they get bought out by someone who wants to run a chemical company, not an investment portfolio.
