American Systems reviews

My experience over the last 3 years working in the Orlando, FL office has been very rewarding. The local management is constantly working to create an effective culture of teamwork, while balancing business development needs to ensure all employees can have longevity with the company. One of the most beneficial aspects of working for American Systems is the ability to develop an effective work-life balance. The leadership emulates this and is flexible and responsive to employee requests. The work is challenging, but I also feel well-supported if I need help.

American Systems is an employee-owned large company. The relatively small size of our local office fosters a small business/family feel, while still having the resources and reachback capability of the large process-oriented company it is, being CMMI-DEV Level 3 assessed and ISO 9001:2015 certified. There is a focus on work/life balance, and a culture of mutual respect and accountability. There are opportunities for training and advancement; I have moved up in the organization twice in my time here. The benefits are pretty good. There is an employee-funded 401(k) and a company-funded ESOP, for which the annual company contribution is more than you would ever get for 401(k) matching at any other company, and only has a 3-year vesting schedule. Holidays are rolled into the PTO, so you have the freedom to choose when to take your holidays, or save the time for other purposes. The health coverage includes an HSA with company contributions and is comparable to that of other defense contractors. Dental and vision coverage are available. There is tuition reimbursement, and company paid LTD and Life.
