Pros

The company seems to offer very good salary and benefits The company provides varied assignments away from one's home office Office and employee support in logistical areas, such as office space, administrative facilities, copiers, computer hardware and software, IT tech assistance, etc are top notch.

Cons

Although senior management provided timely and appropriate "big picture" information to employees, middle management seemed to provide very little communications in those areas that directly affected employees. As a long time professional working in the area of architect-engineer-construction management services, I have been used to being a "sellor-doer" in pursuing work and then providing the services to a client base with which I have developed good working relationships. Unfortunately, AECOM's business model appears to require that one be either or the other. Staff are either marketing or operations, but little opportunity to do both exists.

Pros

opportunitites to integrate different fields of work together, good environenment with a wide range of fields and people, diverse and young culture, relaxed and friendly atmosphere and the opportunity to have a one on one relationship with the managers of the divisions.

Cons

mangement is not always recognizing the efforts of the staff or the sacrifises that are being made. Mangement is not equippped for complete management skills and most of them are overwhelemed with work. there is no true recogniztion of the values of people and what theya ctually do for the company. Higher management which makes the final decision on the raises and bonusses of the staff have no real knowledge of staff contribution to the company and do not have an open dialogue with direct amangers to really rank employees. Time management is very poor on on levels of the company and distribution of labor is minimal with mostly the same people handling most of the problems across the board in teh company which overwhelms them.
