Pros

Working with this organization is nothing short of a disaster. It will drain your energy, crush your motivation, and leave you questioning every career decision you’ve ever made. Avoid it at all costs.

Cons

I am writing to express my concerns regarding some troubling practices I have observed during my time at AMS. My intention is to provide honest feedback in the hope that it can lead to improvements in the workplace environment and culture. 1. Ethical Concerns in Hiring and Management Practices: There have been instances of mismanagement by the HR and hiring team that have led to inconsistent and potentially unethical outcomes. Decisions often appear to lack transparency, and processes sometimes seem influenced by favouritism rather than merit or fairness. This undermines the integrity of the organization and negatively impacts employee morale. 2. Workplace Bias and Partiality: Bias in decision-making and team dynamics has been a recurring issue. Some team leads appear to display favouritism, creating an uneven playing field where certain employees receive preferential treatment. This has fostered resentment and decreased overall team cohesion. 3. Lack of Accountability Among Leadership: Concerns regarding honesty and reliability within the leadership team, particularly with the Talent Acquisition Head and managers, have been significant. Commitments are frequently not upheld, and employees are left feeling unheard or misled. This erodes trust and diminishes faith in leadership.

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.
