Pros

Does provide work with good companies

Cons

The management staff at this organization are not well trained. They treat their permanent full time employees terrible. The minute you are not happy on a contract, and ask to be moved to another, you are out the door. Don't bother applying to the jobs on the intranet, you won't be considered. They have some phoney HR staff work with you on finding you another role within the organization, but it never pans out. I would never recommend this RPO to anyone, please rethink before applying.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. I am disappointed to read your comments , especially in relation to how internal job applications are dealt with and Management barking orders. We have an open application process we promote for all through our internal Talent Acquisition team.

Pros

Flexible and remote working Great company but with the right leadership

Cons

Since the leadership change last year, the culture within AMS has deteriorated significantly. The new CDTO’s approach has created an environment that feels increasingly toxic and unsustainable for many employees. There is a strong sense that every problem is expected to be solved—or sidelined—by AI, often without realistic planning, sufficient resources, or input from the teams actually responsible for execution. This has led to confusion, constant shifting priorities, and a lack of meaningful support for getting work done effectively. At the same time, workloads have increased to an unsustainable level. Expectations continue to rise, but without additional resources or clear prioritization. Many teams are stretched thin, juggling multiple high-pressure initiatives with tight deadlines, which only adds to the stress and makes it difficult to maintain quality or balance. More concerning is the leadership style. Communication often feels driven by pressure and fear rather than clarity or collaboration. Many employees feel they are operating under constant scrutiny, which has contributed to widespread stress, anxiety, and low morale across the department. It’s becoming common to hear colleagues express reluctance to come into work, not because of the workload itself, but because of the atmosphere.
