Buyer’s Beware - Anonymous employee Analysis and Measurement Services Employee Review

AMS can offer a rewarding career in the nuclear industry. The company is committed to developing new technologies that support both existing and next‑generation nuclear power plants, and engineers have real opportunities to contribute ideas. In my experience, if you bring a good idea forward and management believes in it, they will support you in developing it. The work is meaningful, there are a lot of travel opportunities, and the variety of projects keeps things engaging. AMS also offers generous paid time off (PTO).

Fall and spring are busy seasons for travel. 12 hour shifts and 24 hour coverage are normal during that time (being in the office is a more conventional work schedule (8-5) though). We are an engineering company that requires good customer support focus, which means you have to go the extra mile,
