Pros
Salaries are always paid on time. If you need writing pads, pens or file folders, you can get it from the admin with minimum fuss. Desktop or network issues that prevent you from delivering the output to client are fixed with utmost urgency.
Cons
AIT is a pure bodyshop. They provide bodies to their clients and treat them just as another office equipment like a desktop or a printer. If the client wants a person replaced, the management goes ahead without bothering to see if there is an alternative position available for the person, with the same client or a different client. There are no skill training or development programs for employees. Any training received is wholly dependent on the client. No growth opportunities within the organization. Employees have to fend for themselves if they want to change their team or job role. No hospitalization insurance provided to the employees until the year 2010. The worst part is that the company does an underhand trick when paying the employer CPF for PRs. If the Employer contribution increases (eg: from 1st yr PR to 2nd year PR to 3rd year PR or when the government changes the CPF contribution rates) A-IT will cut your salary by the same amount and use the difference to pay up the difference in CPF. End result is that employee ends up with less take-home salary. No regular salary hikes. Salary hikes solely depend on whether the client requests a hike to be given. The management does not bother to negotiate with the client. Its upto the employee to negotiate with the client to get any salary hike. Of course the profit margin for A-IT does not get touched. The management will not reduce their margin even slightly in order to provide a small benefit to the employee. No concept of bonus or any other incentives for the employees. Directors and management have made a lot of money over the years but have not even though about sharing it with the employees. My suggestion to any one contemplating a job with A-IT is to stay for just one or two years to get some job experience and then leave for a better company, if you are really interested in growing your career.
