Vantaggi
Pretty much everyone who isn’t management is friendly, supportive, and great to work with. They were the only reason to work at API.
Svantaggi
Management is a nightmare! The CEO hires his kids and puts them in leadership positions. Management gaslights everyone constantly, making promises they can’t keep and then pretending they don’t know what you’re talking about. When you provide proof, they refuse to respond. DEI has never been a priority and if you bring it up, you’ll be told we can’t cater to the 1% of students this might apply to. I’ve also seen or been the victim of several micro-aggressions, but didn’t feel comfortable bringing it to HR based on how they’d handled situations in the past. Work/life balance is a joke. You get unlimited PTO but they rarely let you use it because it’s too busy (HIRE MORE PEOPLE!) and you will likely be called or texted when you’re out and be expected to answer. The CEO has insinuated more than once that if you have personal plans and a student needs you after hours, get over it. There is no professional development, zero respect, and the CEO yells CONSTANTLY. He’s made people cry on several occasions. Just don’t work here. Seriously. It’s abusive and they’ll drain you entirely and then wait for you to burn out and quit so they can drain someone else at a lower salary. Save yourself the stress. You deserve better.
