Pros

The company makes good nice products and is profitable The company is aggressively pursuing the American market. Someone of the best people I have met in my life were at Amico.

Cons

Unless you're in a sales position, the money is not that good and benefits are basic at best. They hold back some money from you until you pass your probationary period...."really"?! No bonus structure or RRSP plans (they don't like employees who are there for a long time, they become viewed as liabilities, not assets to the company) They say they want to train and help you...that's a lie, they don't want to spend a minute on your development. You have to work three times as hard getting the information that is required. Their model is to hire you, work you to the bone until you're used up and broken, then toss you aside for someone else, because they have to keep feeding the grinder. Every hour of additional work you put in is not valued, every mistake made is magnified.

Pros

Each company is managed as a small company. Since it is a small company, I have more involvement and more opportunities to learn from different projects.

Cons

It is a small company. The salary is not as high as a high paying larger company.

Pros

You learn alot from staff. This place is best if you speak Spanish because 75% of employees only speak Spanish.

Cons

Management rarely associates themselves with workers. Pay raises are $1 a year which sucks. Not a place to grow
