      Pros

      There is good name recognition of firm in the infrastructure market. Many hard working and strong technical experts across all disciplines. Good opportunities on some of the best projects across the company's footprint.

      Cons

      Executive leadership is clueless about clients and employees. It is totally driven and motivated by the analysts and Wall Street. We really are an accounting firm run by accountants. This is followed up with inane chatter and propaganda out of communications.

      Love my job. Hate my employer

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      I love my job, the people I work with, and the projects I work on. I feel like I am responsible for my career growth and project delivery.

      Cons

      I hate my employer. We are underpaid and have horrible health benefits. The company's main focus is on shareholder returns. The company has become a bureaucratic behemoth that can't get out of its own way. The company is in denial of its ability to function and places overwhelming amounts of pressure on its Project Managers and is reluctant to provide adequate support staff and training. The company seeks ways to limit salary increases to 2.5% regardless of performance. When concerns are raised about the work place environment, the managers and business unit leaders are essentially non responsive. The company does not listen to its employees. I would not work for AECOM. I am actively looking for employment elsewhere. If you are a potential, sub consultant don't expect payment for your work for at least 6 to 12 months. If you are curious as to why, the company wants to make sure it's bottom line meets investor's financial metrics.

      There is a disparity between how they portray themselves versus they really are.

      Pros

      Flexible schedules. Offer alternative work schedules as well as telecommuting opportunities on some projects. This helps with preserving leave schedules. Additionally, well compensated staff overall.

      Cons

      Sr. management abuse acceptable behavior to meet bottom line needs for shareholders. The consensus is that by saying anything, one risks losing employment. Ethics a huge issue, but getting people to rally is near impossible because no one wants to lose their job.
