Pros

Huge global business, work with great clients Good pay and benefits Used to have a great culture and feel like a family.

Cons

High numbers of unqualified people managers at middle and senior manager / HCS level. Results in poor client management and “cronyism” within account teams. Performance / hiring decisions are made with unconscious bias and not on actual performance / data. Treatment of very talented staff can be dreadful if they are perceived as “different to them” in some way. The Handling of The current crisis and recent political events have been disingenuous and very disappointing at a local level.

Thank you for sharing your experience. It’s great to hear our culture and the care we show for our people have made a positive impact. That sense of support and connection across teams is something we work hard to nurture every day. We also recognize that client relationships can be complex at times. Supporting our teams to navigate those environments with confidence and collaboration remains an important focus for us. We appreciate your feedback and your contribution to AMS.
