      Pros

      it is a global company and the opportunities to relocate are there. Although the international economy is preventing any dreams of a new york lifestyle

      Cons

      Many of corporate's people policies were driven by the dominating partner when we merged into the one global superpower several years back and this has resulted in a number of backward steps relative to our competitors. there is considerable amount of self preservation/interest to the senior management team with those who are part of the smaller successful companies overlooked for promotion or being driven out because the overall Queensland business is failing to meet plan.

      Pros

      The multidisciplinary company is a great place to interact with various project stakeholders.

      Cons

      The corporate culture interferes with production and costs money out of the project fees.

      Great place to work until you reach the "magic age" and/or the "magic salary level"

      Pros

      Great place to work in general - I was given plenty of freedom. The benefits are very good. The opportunities are there - all over the planet. Young people should not be discouraged - you will be in demand and appreciated.

      Cons

      So large you are destined to be a small fish in an enormous ocean. Organization is ridiculously top heavy - vice presidents everywhere. Because of cutbacks that are currently quite a lot of people who are overextended and quite frankly there is no way that all the work can possibly be accomplished with such a lean staff. But hey, if you are politically saavy you can succeed in AECOM. Just watch out - once you hit a certain age - and salary level - your job will become expendable especially if you are overhead. Your best bet is to find a job chargeable position if you are not a politician. I worked at AECOM for 16 years and I watched year after year as older employees were let go time after time. Surprise! my number came up as well. One serious word of caution: don't think you will succeed here by merely good performance. I was given a glowing review and a raise only two months prior to being let go.
