It was better than unemployment, but only slightly

Pros

It provided me with experience, albeit very limited in scope, with which to secure a job at a far superior firm.

Cons

Aside from saving his own hide, all my manager cared about was padding his retirement fund. Aside from saving her own hide, all the next most senior employee cared about was obtaining the office manager's job. Training new staff and keeping current staff occupied were unheard of, as younger staff would regularly have only four hours of work during an eight hour work day. Unsurprisingly, there was virtually no mentorship or communication between managers and junior staff. Thanks to the chaos caused by AECOM buying up any small and mid-sized engineering and environmental company they could, a litany of good, talented, hard-working employees left for greener pastures, while AECOM did nothing to better the situation.

Pros

Benefits, vacation, cool projects, used to be great people there before upper management screwed everything up.

Cons

Upper management has no vision and has no clue what is going on in Houston. With a steady stream of people walking out the door, they couldn't tell us where we were headed, who was leading us there and how we were getting there.
