Pros

Good salary and fully remote working

Cons

You are just another number, management do not care about you. The majority of the leadership team have no recruitment experience and are all lemmings that follow what the directors say. Even though you are left to do your work without it being a big brother environment (which is good), There is no drive or purpose to the job, people clock in and clock out. When the redundancies started to happen that’s when they really threw you under the bus, they would rather keep on average staff than people with experience and who speak up. Avoid AMS

Thank you for taking the time to provide your review, and whilst it’s great to see that you viewed our flexible working and salary positively, it is disappointing to hear that you felt you had no drive or purpose whilst at AMS. We are proud of the career experiences we offer which make our colleagues successful, both within AMS and outside. In terms of redundancies, it has been extremely hard to say goodbye to colleagues as a result of client hiring volumes on some of our accounts softening owing to the tough economic environment we, and our industry as a whole, are facing. We try hard to minimize the impact on our colleagues, being fair at all points in the process, and are committed to finding other opportunities for those impacted wherever possible. If you want to discuss any of this further, please email engagement@weareams.com

Thank you for sharing your experience. It’s great to hear our culture and the care we show for our people have made a positive impact. That sense of support and connection across teams is something we work hard to nurture every day. We also recognize that client relationships can be complex at times. Supporting our teams to navigate those environments with confidence and collaboration remains an important focus for us. We appreciate your feedback and your contribution to AMS.

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.
