American Power Conversion Employee Reviews for Enterprise Account Manager

"Speaks for itself ..."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Most everything ... late to market on new products. A lot of former Navy; you are treated like enlisted men, not equals or collaborators."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Drop dead (I was laid-off after 5 year over-quota performance and strong annual revenues ... then again, I was an enlisted man.)"

"Two years behind the competition -- work there only if you have to."

What do you like about working at American Power Conversion ?

"Money was good; paperwork not too bad."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Rethink your product development, compensation and marketing. That's all ..."
