Business Outlook
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.
