Pros

Benefits are good. US team is good. Salary wise good.

Cons

Some people can be the worst stain mark to the company. They lead the team and there is no specific recruitment process in some teams. People bring in candidates from different teams who has no relevance to the current team in the name of experiment and close bonding. There are people who are surviving just because they are good to the director siting in US. They seriously have neither any project nor any position in the team. The word manager is matter of mockery in that team. They make any random person as manager and then train them for people management where as things should have happened in reverse way. HR team here is just to fill position and manage recruitment process. Employees are not taken care well here. They are been threaten to an extent that people have to carry phone to meeting to record what manager are saying. The environment is very scary and demotivating. Happy to leave AM AT.

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.
