Pros

Overall, AMS is a great company to work for. The people are always friendly, and willing to help. The environment encourages learning, personal development, and motivates the individual to sink/ swim.

Cons

Technology is a bit lacking, in addition to this, support with technology-- basically mediocre products with constant updates, and little help mediating large updates/ changes, productivity definitely goes down due to lags in technology. I've experienced some employees/ colleagues undervalued by management. It seems like upper management is very excited to make bold moves and changes, however gives little consideration to the employees/ staff that these changes affect. Would appreciate to see foresight into management decisions versus only viewing these in hindsight. Again, not always a negative, but, management changes are often without warnings.

Pros

Flexible and remote working Great company but with the right leadership

Cons

Since the leadership change last year, the culture within AMS has deteriorated significantly. The new CDTO’s approach has created an environment that feels increasingly toxic and unsustainable for many employees. There is a strong sense that every problem is expected to be solved—or sidelined—by AI, often without realistic planning, sufficient resources, or input from the teams actually responsible for execution. This has led to confusion, constant shifting priorities, and a lack of meaningful support for getting work done effectively. At the same time, workloads have increased to an unsustainable level. Expectations continue to rise, but without additional resources or clear prioritization. Many teams are stretched thin, juggling multiple high-pressure initiatives with tight deadlines, which only adds to the stress and makes it difficult to maintain quality or balance. More concerning is the leadership style. Communication often feels driven by pressure and fear rather than clarity or collaboration. Many employees feel they are operating under constant scrutiny, which has contributed to widespread stress, anxiety, and low morale across the department. It’s becoming common to hear colleagues express reluctance to come into work, not because of the workload itself, but because of the atmosphere.
