Pros

Decent Pay and benefits but they dont make up for the trouble you'll face.

Cons

The following is based on a rough account of my experience. Your training will primarily consist of power point presentations and shadowing other employees. The staff you shadow tries to be as helpful as they can but forget going to management let alone your designated "trainer". The product/program is confusing and they openly state how its tricky to understand, but DONT WORRY, it'll just... 'click' one day. A lot of the material pertaining to your job as a customer support rep is counter intuitive but they dont make an effort to ensure your understanding and success, in fact they put more effort into training their clients than employees, but i digress. Overall, the company is one that not only just looks for reasons to fire you but seems to set you up for failure. Your success will be determined by two things: Whether or not you can properly train make sense of the book thrown at you all the while passing/meeting the ambiguous set of standards that they will not make clear to you. While Paul and his family might be charmers they're cut throat and have little regard for the well being and success of their employees. Honesty is not their strong suit as they will work to manipulate you before spitting you out. Any positive review is written by their management in an effort to offset the truth. The negative reviews hardly do the honest experience justice. Just avoid the company at all costs.

Pros

Since working at Applications International, my life has changed tremendously. Financially Applications International has allowed me to be stable and growth in my personal life. For my career, I have become an IT Professional, expert in Environmental Health and Safety solutions and traveled to the Safety Trade-shows. Working here gives you the freedom and encouragement to learn and advance. Management doors are always open for any comments and new ideas. You only get out of what you put into life. If you want to succeed and be able to move up in your career, Applications International is a great opportunity.

Cons

Being a small company, means everyone plays a big part in your job. The work load may vary depending from week to week, but that is because we all work hard and produce/compete those of larger companies. We all work as a team and all want to continue to hold up our highly esteemed reputation in this industry, so we are all very much involved in each others tasks to make sure all that needs to be done is completed. I feel that some people might find that feel that is intimidating, and meant to 'call the other out' but it is only to keep up and manage out tasks.
