Pros

APC has great people to work with for good compensation. Not a lot of politics at the lower levels. The people you work with have families and so it's a relaxed environment. The people are in it to do a good job, go home to their families.

Cons

Company is not loyal to employees. They treat you well as long as they need you, however they will lay you off if convenient for them despite stellar job performance. Recently with the merger with Schneider Electric, this has become a more common occurrence. I hope that things settle out in the future.

Pros

Great people, meaningful work, and strong opportunities for professional growth. As a large global company, Schneider Electric offers extensive resources, exposure to diverse projects, and the flexibility to explore different teams and career paths across the organization.

Cons

Bureaucratic processes can make it difficult to move quickly. Some HR policies feel unnecessarily restrictive and are not always clearly communicated during the hiring process. Referral bonuses are forfeited if an employee leaves before the payout date, even if the referral was successfully hired. Limited office presence in major U.S. hubs such as New York and San Francisco, and few options for part-time or reduced-hour work arrangements.
