Pluspunten

I was hired as a true entry level engineer, which I feel like is almost unheard of nowadays. This specific type of work is not something you are taught in school, and the learning curve is pretty steep, but if you like to learn and embrace a challenge, this is perfect, It is very much a learn as you go type position without a very structured onboarding or training plan, but the owner/boss/PE Ariel, and Senior Engineer/PE Andrew, have both been amazing mentors and are always there to support you and answer any questions along the way. The company is also VERY small, which I wasn't sure if I would like at first. But after having worked here for the past three years, I can tell you that I would not have had the advancement I have had at a larger company. Within one year I was leading large field sampling events, working as a project manager on numerous projects, and constantly talking with clients and city and state agencies. I was able to gain so much knowledge into this field and develop skills much faster than I would have at a larger company. AMC becomes like a family and everyone there is so supportive. The only reason I have decided to leave the company is because I am relocating. If you are in the environmental field, AMC is the place to be!

Minpunten

This job does not have a ton of structure, and day to day tasks can vary, so if you are someone who likes to be doing the same thing every day this is probably not the place for you. Also, the office is very small, so if you prefer a larger company I would also advise to look elsewhere!

Pluspunten

- The company works on a wide variety of different projects, giving new engineers a well-rounded view of the industry. - Employees are given substantial engineering work to do from their first week on the job. - There are many opportunities for employees to take on leadership roles (supervising / teaching new hires, scheduling and supervising field work, independently managing projects, etc.). - Coworkers are friendly and helpful, and they are always willing to answer questions. - The owner of the company is a licensed NYS PE with over 20 years of experience in the environmental consulting industry, and he is always willing to answer any technical questions employees may have. (Working at AMC is excellent experience for anyone looking to obtain a PE license.) - Good balance of office field and office work. Employees have the opportunity to see how plans they developed in the office translate to practical implementation in the field. This allows new engineers to develop an intuition for what may not work in practice even if it makes sense on paper. - Engineers at AMC become exceptionally well-versed in local, state, and federal environmental regulations, particularly the ones pertaining to groundwater dewatering and environmental remediation. - The company has an ever-increasing stream of work, which means that employees are rarely ever bored or stagnant. The company is growing, and there is ample opportunity to tackle new and interesting projects.

Minpunten

- There is a steep learning curve during the first couple of months, and this may be overwhelming to somebody new to the industry. - Fieldwork is sometimes scheduled on short notice. - Employees work in close proximity to one another since the office is small. (The company is also small, and had 6 engineers while I worked there.)

Pluspunten

One of the standout aspects of AMC is the genuinely supportive and encouraging work environment. It was very reassuring to be surrounded by bright and talented individuals, always willing to provide aid and collaborate. Through AMC, I was able to take on a multitude of different roles and quickly learned about many different aspects of the industry.

Minpunten

A challenge that was often encountered was the commute around the boroughs. With projects located throughout the boroughs and start times that often varied, the unpredictability of traveling through the city became tiring.
