Pros

Good for graduates to learn SAS, then move on.

Cons

Bad work life balance + non existent benefits. Predominantly white staff yet they call their company socials (bowling etc) 'AFRO'. Why? Because an employee attended one of their events wearing a black afro wig. Racist? You decide.

Hi Anon, Thank you for taking the time to review our Glassdoor page. Regarding your comment about our company weekends being called ‘AFRO’, this is not because an employee attended an event wearing a wig however is an acronym for ‘Amadeus For Recreational Outdoors’, as when it started it was the chance to do more exciting/outdoor activities on weekends. We are a widely cultural company who pride ourselves on offering the best for our employees. In 2019 we took our staff skiing for a long weekend in Austria followed by a summer BBQ, bowling in Oxford and a fun Christmas party. If you would like to discuss this any further, please email me on info@amadeus.co.uk Many thanks.
