Pros
I have been with AST for almost a year and overall my experience has been great. Being on a different timezone from the corporate office that you work for sounds like a challenge, but anytime I have needed assistance or had a quick question my POC in HR has always taking my call or answered my emails even after core hours. I work onsite within DOE, but I still feel apart of the AST team and that is really important to me. I have great insurance and PTO is within the usual range in my experience.
Cons
I feel my salary could be a little higher, but working in the Federal Contracting arena, I have learned that there are a lot of moving pieces when it comes to salaries for employees.

Pros
AST cares deeply about employee happiness. They engage often and provide as much support as possible to help you complete the work you are doing for your clients. They have great benefits & very good salaries, and an easy-going corporate culture that encourages people to engage with senior leadership.
Cons
Most opportunities are with an "on-site" client. Staff are embedded with clients - which blurs the line between "boss" and client. Often, AST leadership are not aware of how staff are performing - or what they are working on. There is limited opportunity for career advancement, unless you find avenues within your client space for growth. Career growth, new responsibilities, etc. are not always correlated with pay raises.
