Pros

Competitive pay, good work-life balance, leadership seems solid, nice bonuses, engaging and challenging work, high performing employees can easily keep a job for as long as they want, lots of room for movement within.

Cons

Has developed a stereotypical corporate culture over the years that emphasizes administrative nonsense over getting the job done the best way possible, bad employees can be hard to get ride of, good employees need to make extra efforts to get noticed by management

Pros

This is a company with a great future and overall many smart and talented work colleagues.

Cons

There are pockets of poorly managed teams and the Global Sourcing and Procurement Team is one of them. Working for GSP was a soul crushing experience. On a regular basis, I witnessed and experienced mobbing, gaslighting, bullying, senior leaders retaliating and weaponizing the 360 feedback program for their own personal gain, senior leaders taking credit for other peoples work, long tenured leaders abusing their relationships within HR, regular staff crying and people admitting to seeking professional help due to the toxic work environment…ptsd in GSP is real. And to top it off, Applied’s most senior leadership have known of these issues for years.
