Worst working experience I've had.

Pros

SOME of the members of my team were competent, good people.

Cons

I worked on-site at a client in NC. The client itself was a nightmare to deal with but these comments are only about AMS. We had no on-site management for my team until the last few weeks I was there. Incompetence of other team members was completely ignored because of their seniority and despite the fact that there were a litany of officially logged complaints against certain individuals who never saw disciplinary action. And if a member of the business decides to abuse you...don't expect anyone from AMS's management to go to bat for you. The only advice you will get is to bend over and take it with a smile on your face. I should have guessed at this from the beginning from the obvious revolving door aspect. Within a month of my start date, 3 people on the team had left. The corporate HR department in AMS is a complete joke. Submitting a request ticket to them typically saw at least one week turn-around time, if there was even a response at all. It took me two months to receive my insurance cards due to HR providing an incorrect address to the insurance company which, to this day I have no idea how they even got. I ended up having to fix the problem with the insurance company directly. No apology or admission of culpability from AMS HR. Just a chipper email from some derpy little moron thanking me for contacting them about my issue and asking me to do so again if I have any further problems....as if. In the end I can only blame myself for taking a job I knew I didn't really want. AMS's business model is to provide outsourced recruiting to companies that are too lazy and/or stingy to hire their own recruiters. Don't be fooled by the "on-site" aspect of the job. AMS is just another agency and unless you are that type of recruiter, you will not grow or thrive there.
