Pros

There only a few genuine people in the company who works hard and deliver results. Reputable clients

Cons

Where do I start... I had no equipment for 2 weeks. No training or induction in metaphor terms " practically I was thrown a generic manual and told to make my role my own"... Managers have no idea how to manage people or understand how individual employee run their job...no support to help the ridiculous amount workload given...no point asking for help you wont get it. overnight working no social life no work life balance. The staff retention in ams is a boke .... no permanent position only temps and contracts...hence new employee starting every 2 weeks to replace leavers. If your face fits you get treats... the grafter are ignore hugely...no praise.... no shape or form I will never ever work for ams. Thank god

Pros

- big variety of accounts and projects - huge organigram of people to meet and learn from - trainings, activities, events

Cons

- salary under the average - lots of people, but very few real professionals (especially among managers) - the company is turning into a machine, levelling down development and focusing only on numbers

Pros

I very much enjoy the experience to work with our offices throughout the world. AMS has locations in Bracknell, England; Belfast, Ireland; Manila, Philippines; Krakow, Poland; and here in the US in Cleveland. It gives the opportunity to learn about different culture and different ways of doing business. The benefits offered are very good as well - vacation is generous, as well as sick time. There are several training opportunities available on various areas of the recruiting business, from working in Microsoft Excel to dealing with customer service to personality styles, etc. Visits are paid to the office often from senior leadership and opportunities are given for employees to discuss any concerns they may have regarding the company. The location is outside the center of downtown Cleveland, which helps stay clear of the traffic mess that may be encountered in other locations such as Public Square or Playhouse Square.

Cons

Several moves have been made as the office continues to grow and more space is needed. Promotions are more easily available for some areas rather than others due to more opportunites and business.
