Pros

None come to mind, possibly better than unemployment……

Cons

"After two decades with the company, I have watched its culture be systematically dismantled. Since the AECOM acquisition, benefits have been slashed to the bare legal minimum and meaningful training has vanished. The 'on-the-job' training model is inefficient, forcing staff to bill clients for basic learning time. Promotions often favor self-promotion over technical expertise, and the loss of dedicated IT and admin support means billable staff are bogged down by clerical tasks. Most concerning is the 'brain drain'—experienced professionals are being replaced by inexperienced graduates to cut costs. While senior executives enjoy lavish bonuses and private travel, the technical staff who keep the business running are left with stagnant pay and dwindling support."
