Pros

Many hard working, good people. The insurance is very good.

Cons

Benefits and overall treatment of employees is suffering under the current leadership. Everything from PTO, pay and flexibility in work from home has been on a downward trend. You truly are just a number here and upward mobility is extremely limited. Not a good place to be anymore.

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.
