Pros

One of the greatest places to work if you want to gain recruitment experience working on and in (when you’re based onsite) some of the biggest and best brand names and bluechips across various verticals. AMS are still the no.1 in Recruitment Process Outsource and is absolutely the right choice if you are looking for a career within corporate in-house recruitment. The level of work/life balance is entirely dependent on the service set-up with the client and their demands ie. Some accounts allow for 40-60% WFH/offsite where as others will require 100% on-site and WFH/flexi hours are on a case-by-case occurrence. Some great internal training courses provided by AMS - steadily growing number of courses available however they are predominantly targeted on entry-level to mid-level recruiters.

Cons

Considerably lower salary compared to the market average. Confused and under-delivering bonus structure that has been revamped a second year in a row. Communication from the leadership team tends to be fluffy. Any employee below Head of Client Services level are powerless to influence or impact any real business change.
