Seattle, WA

Current Employee – been working at Apex Learning full-time for more than a year

ProsNice group of people to work with, Department has had significant growth and improvement over the last year. Company culture is improving, more company functions.

ConsNeeds to pay employs reasonable for their work, not all money should be spent on Sales Reps that can't pull in any business. No 401k match or stock options.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

Seattle, WA

Former Employee – worked at Apex Learning

ProsThe business is growing, so there are opportunities for individual growth within the business as new products and lines of business are added. Everyone in the office is really nice to work with. There is a lot of pride in the product from people at all levels of the company. The benefits package is great.

ConsThe departments don't interact very often, there needs to be better communication. The atmosphere in the office is very quiet and muted, it's not a "fun" place to work.

Advice to Senior ManagementKeep producing a killer product and growing the business. But spend a little time working on the office environment - lunchroom, office celebrations, etc.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

Current Employee – been working at Apex Learning

ProsAble to work from home when it was appropriate (my position did not really require me to be in the office full time)

ConsA fairly boring work environment. It did not have a very fun time while in the office. The people were fine, but it was not a very exciting place to work.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

Former Employee – worked at Apex Learning full-time for more than a year

ProsGood product, but there are more engaging competitive products in the market place

ConsThey monopolize your time by making you do excessive reporting.
Management should not be trusted.
They put most of the Senior AE's on performance improvement plans without warning and fired them even if they succeeded in making the plan.
Only 10% of the Sales people made quota in 2012.

Advice to Senior ManagementHave realistic quotas and don't fire people without cause.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company
