Pros
I’ve worked at American Systems, full time, for about a year and can honestly say its one of the best companies out there. I feel like the managers truly do care about their people. We have weekly and daily meetings to get updates on work, but also to get a mental check on how everyone is handling their workload. If you feel overwhelmed, you have a safe place to say something (and I have said something at times, and they do what they can to get you help). The Orlando office feels like a family to me. I truly love the people I work with and we have a lot of fun in the office. The Orlando office also offers a flex schedule, which is awesome! And if I ever feel like I need to get away from distractions in the office, they allow people to work from home. I also feel like I have a say in what’s going on around me in the office. We hold a meeting every two weeks where we talk about everything that went well in our two-week sprint, as well as what did not go well and what we can do to fix those issues. This meeting is a safe space to bring up anything, and after being here a year, I’ve seen quite a few changes happen in the office because of discussions in those meetings.
Cons
We have quite a bit of work, so we need more people!
