Internal redeployment support may NOT be as strong as advertised, even for high performing employees. It's you and your luck.
I worked for AMS for almost a year and was a top performer on one of their North American accounts. Despite consistently delivering strong results, I was ultimately let go after 11 months when the project ended.
One of the main messages AMS communicates to employees is that if your project ends, they will prioritize you for redeployment internally and support you in finding another role within the company. Unfortunately, this was not the case.
After being released from the project, I followed all the guidance provided and applied to more than 10 roles within the company that were genuinely aligned with my background and experience as a recruiter. Despite being qualified for these roles, I was rejected from every single one. In one case, I was even referred by a former line manager, yet that still did not lead to an opportunity. I was even open to roles one level below my previous position (something I had seen redeployed employees do) yet I was still not considered, despite having strong working relationships with colleagues and managers.
It was disappointing because I showed dedication, genuine commitment, and a strong interest in continuing my career with AMS. The level of internal mobility and support that is often promoted simply did not materialize in practice.
