Pros

The CEO's are hard working and inspiring to work for. Two stars for the CEO's

Cons

First off there is no communication between the crew of 4 that have come from Food lion in IT and new joiners. You have to beg for workload and if you do you are marginalized. They are not sympathetic or compassionate. I had two losses and I communicated that I wouldn't be able to make it to work via gmail which I'm sure the manager has an account with. Yet the next day They sat me down forced me to sign a disciplinary document which stated I'd be fired next time I didn't email the proper email account they completely ignored the fact that I had called in to let them know on the day of. There is a constant badgering of IMs you'll receive from other employees wondering if their job is at stake. Managment will ask you for suggestions on improving the process but will not take into account anything you say. They are outdated in their skill set thus there is a high turnover in IT and not to mention I've seen 10 people I worked with there in my new company 10! From sales to IT. The HR here is a cover up operation who presents an ideal image of the company while being an enforcer in firing people or disciplining them without reasonable context. She was upset I was late to a 401k meeting when I had an actual meeting for the job I was hired to do. All in all DO NOT WORK FOR THIS COMPANY!! If you seek longevity and growth in your skill set and not feel like you are working at an internment camp don't work here.

Pros

AMT is a great place to work. The environment is very laid back, open and friendly. The owners are easy to talk to and they understand that family comes first. There are several company outings, social hours, physical events, etc. throughout the year. It is still hard work, but overall, it's enjoyable. Executive team is approachable and has an open door policy.

Cons

Depending on your position, there can be pressure, but that's the case with most jobs. Don't be negative and don't procrastinate and there should be no issues.

I would give this place less than a one star if it allowed me to.

Pros

This place used to be a great place to work, they claimed they cherished values and families and it felt like a place to set your coffee cup down and work hard with a family environment.

Cons

They treat their employees as just worker bees, disposable and definitely not a part of the family. I saw people who did not work hard get promotions, while the ones who sacrificed time at home get the boot like it was personal. I would suggest if you work here, use it a a building block or training example of how companies should not treat their employees. They also don't tell you that if you put in notice you may get cut that day and insurance ends the same day. They also will make you wait to get your own personal property. I've seen people get fired on their birthday, so don't get too close with management.

We are sorry that there are hard feelings. Our goal is for every employee who leaves AMTdirect to do so with great memories and strengthened skills and experience. Our primary responsibility is to protect the interests of our customers, staff and company. We are generally happy to accept a notice period when an employee decides to pursue a new opportunity, but in some cases the right thing to do is to end the employment relationship right away. We wish nothing but the best for you and hope that you benefit from the experience and connections you gained while at AMTdirect.
