Pros

Smart, driven, risk-oriented people; intellectually challenging environment; innovator in its industry so there is always something new going on; long hours and stressful at times but very respectful of personal commitments- they strike the right balance; compensation is very good, benefits are phenomenal, and expectations about both are very clear; IT and HR departments are the best I've ever worked with.

Cons

The only downside to AMG is that because it is so successful, people don't leave very often, so there is very little upward mobility. It is also a relatively lean organization so there aren't many management levels (a good thing mostly). Thus, if you are a subject expert and are happy with a role that allows you to flourish in your subject area, then this is a great place to be. Similarly, if you want a job that you can leverage into a better opportunity down the road, this is a great stepping stone. However, if you are looking for a place to join and move around or "climb the ladder," you will be frustrated.

Pros

Overwhelmingly great benefits and worked with a few amazing colleagues.

Cons

I could write a novel about why not to work here, but I will just say that I should have listened to the many employees that would stop me and whisper in the hallways to get out while you can. I realized a lot of employees are only staying for the great health plan benefits because it’s certainly not the respect or pay. I wish I knew about Glassdoor before starting at AMG because I would have saved myself a lot of time and frustration.
