Pros

Some great people Benefits Cookouts

Cons

If you are a high performer, run. You will be asked to save the day on last minute items because underachievers dropped the ball, then you will be thrown under the bus by middle management as the one who caused the issue or delay. You will get overworked and watch as the underachievers get ahead of you because you're being blamed for their failures. IT Department laid off all the best managers who defended their employees so that they could return to the old system of having managers who treated them poorly.

Pros

The only Pro of working at Amica is typically their stability. However, that is starting to wane as they have been laying off more and more teams.

Cons

- Lower than average salaries - HR reports you to your manager if you use more than half your sick time - Low performing employees aren't punished as long as they show up to work everyday (causing the rest of the team to pick up the slack) - You can get in trouble for menial things that aren't in the employee handbook, like not tucking in a Polo shirt (the rules don't say you have to tuck it in) - Management is largely incompetent and out of touch with the times, technology, and current workplace cultures - Despite Amica being largely non-client facing (in-person), the dress code is still strictly business casual, though the out of touch management sees this as a great benefit because they have been around since suits and ties were required. - There is no culture to speak of: Everyone comes to work and largely watches the clock just waiting to leave - nobody, or at least VERY few people seem even slightly happy there - If you accrue large amounts of sick time due to working absurd hours, you're essentially not allowed to use the sick time because you'll only get behind on work - this is due to poor management not growing the teams to keep up with the workload, thinking that working more hours is the solution - Management tends to rarely ever work overtime despite forcing their teams to - There is no work-life balance - It doesn't matter how early you come into the office (for those that aren't remote), you are forced to stay until a specific time. This is despite the fact that it isn't a rule and HR states this isn't required. Again, VERY poor management - Senior level management/Executives are held in such high regard, you can get "scolded" just for speaking with them actual work - Executives have their own private parking garage and instead of sitting with their teams, they have their own private floor. - Nearly everyone that is an Officer or higher got to that position by simply showing up every day and not quitting; it doesn't make them qualified and in my experience (I worked with nearly every single team), most of them aren't remotely qualified to manage a team

Thanks for your review. Amica currently offers a number of remote positions. While not every position is fully remote, we’ve expanded our work-from-home policy to allow many positions the opportunity to work two days at home and three days in the office. Please know that we’re always listening to the feedback from current and former employees, and if you’re interested in sharing additional comments with us directly, you can email us at employeefeedback@amica.com. Thank you.
