Pros

The pay is great for the area. Benefits are decent but expensive.

Cons

-growth has been stunted by lack of accountability in every department - lack of accountability in development has set the company back exponentially causing decline in sales - manipulative management tactics and intentional data inaccuracies to falsely inflate close rates - vicious management will scream and dehumanize you publicly and in private meetings - discriminatory hiring practices. minorities and unconventional personalities need not apply in sales - dishonest inconsistent management causing the best employees to leave - HR uninterested in discussing or addressing any issues and employee may have creating a hopeless environment with nobody to turn to

Pros

APS has strong systems, organized onboarding, and good exposure to SaaS, HCM/payroll, CRM tools, and consultative sales structure. The company invests heavily in training and accountability through Sandler methodology, Gong call reviews, Mindtickle AI role plays, Zoom recordings, and daily coaching throughout onboarding. HR was responsive and professional throughout my experience, and some leaders and peers were genuinely supportive in helping navigate territory strategy, GeoPoint, and the field sales process.

Cons

This is a very structured and heavily monitored sales environment with limited autonomy. The Sandler methodology is deeply embedded into the culture and training process, which may work very well for some salespeople but did not naturally align with my communication style or approach to relationship building. The onboarding process can also feel overwhelming due to the constant feedback loops, role plays, and monitoring systems. Leadership support and communication styles felt inconsistent at times depending on the manager or situation. One of my biggest early challenges was territory adaptation and understanding how to strategically navigate the field environment while also adjusting to a new industry and sales process.
