Pros

Decent pay, they don't keep tabs on employees so it's easy to focus on what's important versus taking blind orders.

Cons

I could write a book on the cons of this company, but I'll keep it short here. They don't care about local communities, employers, clients, vendors, processes and operations, or how money is spent. They fire people based on numbers and "loyalty" (years employed) instead of talking to teams about who is valuable and why. They hold pointless meetings with anywhere from 5-80 without any agenda or talking points (massive waste of time). They also don't care about moving forward in the digital world despite thats what they claim to be championing; outdated software, denying expert advice, and refusing to adapt process changes that involve modern tools are just a few examples. Oh, and every single deptartment head was gifted their position because they have an inner circle of friends that existed before they started APG corporate. I.T, HR, Design, Accounting, etc are all ran by the most incompetent people I've met in my life; in regards to their respective positions. Avoid this company at all costs, and if you work there now you should be looking for a new job starting yesterday!

Pros

I enjoy my job and the new adventures it brings each day. As a manager, I like being able to help shape our future and pass on my knowledge to help others succeed.

Cons

I suppose there are always things that can be improved and who doesn't want to earn more money, and although I understand that is most likely based on revenue generation, we have a lot of team members across the country that have been with the company (and their respective publications) for many, many years and I believe they're salaries should be reflective of that time and dedication and that is not always the case, as we have team members who have been here for a decade, sometimes decades, making less that someone we just hired.
