Pros

Very laid back culture. Good opportunities if you work hard for it. I do my job and get left alone with no micromanaging

Cons

Upper Management send out surveys every year, and most who can work remote want to work fully remote, but because a few higher ups don't agree, it gets shot down.

We appreciate your insightful feedback and positive "Together We Win" attitude towards the company's culture and growth opportunities. We take the "We Listen" survey results and feedback very seriously. While we may not address everything immediately, we strive to discuss important matters such as the possibility of working fully remotely. Thank you for your dedication and contributions to our Supply team for over 3 years.

Pros

Exposure to large, high-value accounts and complex operational challenges. The role builds resilience quickly and provides strong experience in account management, problem-solving, and cross-functional collaboration. There is a high level of ownership in day-to-day responsibilities, which can accelerate skill development for those who are self-driven.

Cons

Since the acquisition by Apollo, the work environment has noticeably declined. While new processes were introduced, leadership often did not take the time to fully understand or follow them, creating confusion and inconsistency across teams. Employees who raised questions or tried to improve processes were not always received positively, which discouraged feedback and innovation. There is also a lack of alignment between departments, leading to inefficiencies, miscommunication, and added pressure on employees managing critical accounts. Workloads are frequently excessive without adequate support, contributing to burnout and turnover. Compensation does not consistently reflect the level of responsibility and workload expected, which further impacts morale and retention. Overall, the organization feels reactive rather than structured, and direction has become increasingly unclear.
