Pros

Reasonable salary. Reasonable work to life balance.

Cons

Despite the over-emphasis of company values within the business, there doesn't appear to be a clear strategy. The company is driven by a cabal of senior management who are unable to consider issues that don't impact them directly. Headlong rush to expand in recent years appears to be at the expense of good business practice. If you are not on the top table, your views will be ignored! There is a constant diet of propaganda informing staff how rosy the future of AMS will be but ignores inherent risks that will be encountered along the way.

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.
