Pros

Independent of what you do and how bad you contribute, as long as you know the right person at the top you are fine. You dance to the music from the top you are safe.

Cons

There is NO leadership There is NO vision The so called leadership does not have a clue for the contributions that makes the goals met. Very sad place

Pros

over the past five years, AMSC had quickly become family. I am able to be a mom of a toddler, while still juggling a demanding global position. AMSC values work life balance and understands everyone has a life outside of here. When I first interviewed here, I could not believe the tenure. So much of senior leadership has spent 10+ years here, and I have had the pleasure of wishing people luck on retirement, and then seeing them again shortly after wanting to work part time for us. I truly enjoy coming to work every day, not only because the work is never stagnant, but the people I work alongside are truly some of the most caring people.

Cons

AMSC will challenge you to wear multiple hats, Some may think it's a con, but I personally enjoy it. It allows you to consistently grow as the company grows.
