Pros

The future written on a napkin. Circles drawn all over it and a baffling crazy man rambling on. 2 more words... done!

Cons

Everything. Everything is wrong. I finally wanted to write a review for the 23 days I was at AME. I left an amazing job with the promise of something else. I hated most days I was there. I had made a huge mistake To be honest, waiting months for a call back should have been warning signs, but I wouldn’t be where I am now if I hadn’t taken the Job at AME. CEO baffles on about being motivated, persistent and hard working, but when you see no vision on his napkin and you read the terrible reviews that honest people have written, there is no motivation but to start looking for job ASAP. I mean ASAP. I started on day 2. Thank you to the CEO for getting rid of me because you didn’t need me. You made my decision final and I’m so thankful I am where I am now!!!

Hi, thanks for your feedback. Come on now, we don't write the future on a napkin, we prefer to present our company goals and strategies (based on our expert forecasting and analysis) on our large screens in our lovely meeting rooms. We love a good presentation as much as the next person – we're sure you've been to a few! But we get it, you're exaggerating for dramatic purposes. We apologize for the distress your retrenchment has clearly caused you but we're glad to hear you're doing well and wish you all the best of luck for the future.

Pros

Nothing. It is a real hell, the other hell in the holy book is simulated from AME

Cons

Where to start? 😂😂😂it’s been 4 years I left that company but I still come to read new comments and see if Shaun still adds fake reviews with zero helpful sign under them 😂😂😂 or finally real comments could bring the company ratings to what it actually is (negative). Now that I see the trend is going down and there is less fake five stars, I started to think maybe he no longer is there

Pros

Nothing more than a nicely blended team personality

Cons

Management is narrow-minded, especially Shaun — the CEO. Full of talk, full of empty promises that never materialize. Being visionary is fine, but you also need to understand the actual steps required to get there. Otherwise it is just fantasy. The company claims to be international, but in reality it feels more like a family-run business without strong professional credibility. Economists who were hired with strong academic and professional backgrounds end up being undermined by leadership coming from people with unclear qualifications, profiles, and experience, which is Shaun’s daughter lol The Indonesia team often becomes the scapegoat for problems that actually originate from the inability of the Australia team to deliver their work properly. Accountability does not seem to flow upward. For fresh graduates reading this review: I know the salary offered may look attractive and above market rate. Do not be tempted. The salary can become a trap that makes it harder for you to move later to companies with healthier and more professional cultures because your pay here may price you out of better environments. There is very little real professional development here. Do not expect meaningful growth.
