Pros

Great benefits (e.g. Medical, PTO, Retirement) The staff (i.e. not leadership) is hard working and nice.

Cons

This company is run by Tracy Woods. Tracy has filled the ranks of upper management with sycophants from American Public University who lack the experience necessary to run a division of IT, let alone an entire company providing IT services. If you decide that saying yes to everything Tracy wants does not work for you, then you will not be welcomed by her or the cronies that surround her. If you have an idea that does not align with Tracy's vision, you will not be invited to any discussions. You will not be fired from AccelerEd. They are too afraid of litigation to fire people, even if it is justified. Instead, the leadership team will make your life miserable until you decide to leave on your own accord. The staff have become so beat down and demoralized that the general feeling around the office is depressing. There is a large amount of apathy in the workplace due to lack of autonomy and decision making for the staff. Do not work here. It will cost you your sanity and well-being.

Pros

I just began my role at this company and I am very impressed so far. The new hire orientation was very informative and the HR staff have been amazing to work with. My manager has provided me with an Onboarding plan that is very well laid out and the training so far has been great. I look forward to my career here.

Cons

Nothing that I can think of so far!
