Pros

Good people, casual work environment. Benefits are OK. They do pay people pretty well. But in order to get people to stay through the kind of collapse we have here now, they must pay well.

Cons

So many layoffs because of the Sinoval debacle that moral is in the toilet. It is completely unknown even to us on the inside whether the company will make it.

Pros

over the past five years, AMSC had quickly become family. I am able to be a mom of a toddler, while still juggling a demanding global position. AMSC values work life balance and understands everyone has a life outside of here. When I first interviewed here, I could not believe the tenure. So much of senior leadership has spent 10+ years here, and I have had the pleasure of wishing people luck on retirement, and then seeing them again shortly after wanting to work part time for us. I truly enjoy coming to work every day, not only because the work is never stagnant, but the people I work alongside are truly some of the most caring people.

Cons

AMSC will challenge you to wear multiple hats, Some may think it's a con, but I personally enjoy it. It allows you to consistently grow as the company grows.
