Pros

AMC is a great first job. The employees get a thorough group training that forms bonds between coworkers. On breaks drinks and popcorn are free. The job itself allows the employee to develop skills working with and assisting people in order to help them acheive what they want

Cons

A problem that has shown itself in multiple AMC theatres is the lack of staffing. The lower level employees for the most part seem to feel both overworked and underpaid. In addition, there is very little room for growth oppurtunity in most AMC theatre companies. Even the best employees who would seem to be obvious choices for upward movement are at the mercyof their managers, many of whom are pressured by corporate not to give promotions unless absolutely necessary.

Pros

Great part time job for new comers. Great place to move up within the company. Almost all members of management came from Crew. Positions from theatre management to corporate associates are all filled by former Film Crew. All AMC associates receive free movie tickets. If you like working on your feet and not behind a desk AMC is for you. If you are willing to relocate AMC pays all costs. You get a chance to see the United States at AMC's expense

Cons

Does pay min. wage for entry level crew. Tends to over work its top performers. Work / Life balance is difficult for management and senior management.
