Pros

Good client base who are oblivious to their practices and good Xmas party in 2013 but little else

Cons

Rip off consultants and businesses alike. Clients are oblivious as to how they work and that's wrong. Don't play fair

As Chief People Officer, I was very disappointed and surprised to read your feedback about your experience working for us. I am particularly concerned about your comments around shady practices, killing off companies and the people we employ and not playing fair. We take all of these things very seriously and I would really like the opportunity to discuss this feedback with you in confidence. Please contact me at sheena.cartwright@alexmann.com - my telephone number is available on the company intranet if you would prefer to call me. Many thanks, Sheena Cartwright

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.
