Pros

- Trainings are well organized, very informative and high in standards. - Have good clients. - Global Team is supportive and quick in solving escalations of Employees

Cons

- Recently AMS has acquired a sister concern of ABC Consultants named - FlexAbility with which it is replaced as AMS (Alexander Mann Solutions). The regional team is very pathetic with treating their employees like a Tissue Paper. - We understand the recession, but the way they had given Exit Experience for the employees is very unprofessional. - Now, it is not making any sense that they are laying off existing employees and hiring a new team !? Now doubt is capability of AMS (Alexander Mann Solutions) planning such a unthoughtful strategy.

Thank you for taking the time to provide your review, and whilst it’s great to see that you have found our training, clients, and global team all very positive, it is disappointing to hear of your experience with the regional team. AMS acquired FlexAbility from ABC Consultants in July 2022, an occasion that was highly anticipated and desired by both AMS and FlexAbility after working in close partnership for 12 years prior. We were delighted to transfer all existing FlexAbility employees into AMS and begin our integration, a project that continues today with many successes already. Over the past 12 months we have had a very small pocket of team members who, due to changes in client requirements, have undergone a redeployment exercise, of which a small number have regrettably exited the business. This is a difficult process for those individuals and we always strive to work with impacted team mates professionally and empathetically. If your experience doesn’t meet these standards, and you would like to discuss in more detail, please contact Rebecca Dakin, APAC Head of HR at: Rebecca.dakin@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.
