APL reviews

Leadership has almost run the company into the ground. They largely ran blind, not seeking or listening to feedback from below. They mismanaged IT infrastructure projects, wasting tens of millions of dollars. Then they had the genius idea of trying to turn a Cadillac brand into a Walmart brand, at a time when almost the entire industry was losing money.

This company was once the pride of the industry, and the people reflected it. The company was innovative and customers loved them. That is no more. After years of BLEEDING money, the company has gone through many "re-organizations" and the organization is all but flat - leaving little room to advance. Cost has become the single minded focus, at the expense of training, development, and retention of talent. Jobs at all levels were churned due to a combination of firing and fleeing. Nepotism, and especially a "good old boys club" mentality, are rampant.
