Pros

Company invested in my professional development, great opportunities for international work

Cons

AECOM seemed to acquire a new company every month and the transition was choppy. In my line of work (economic analysis), legal review and fear of liability limited our ability to go after many of our bread and butter projects

Pros

Large company with good opportunities for entry level engineers, and some potential mobility because of the number of offices they have. Has all the normal benefits of a large company.

Cons

The company does not value its employees or their capabilities and specialties. You are just a name on a spreadsheet and unless you are 90% billable you are under scrutiny to be laid off. The companies growth is by mergers and acquisitions. As a result, there is constant turmoil within the company and constant downsizing and there is little opportunity for older more experience professional. They also treat their customers poorly from a management and procedural aspect and their ethics are less that appropriate, causing customers to not want to deal with the bureaucracy.

Pros

Decent benefit, interesting projects and plenty of opportunities to work around the country as long as you know the upper management.

Cons

upper Management is a joke and not fair to some people. No one really care about your career growth unless your boss like you then you are golden.
