Pros

Great company that has big and interesting projects. Theoretical opportunity exists but is very hard to achieve. Good to have on a resume.

Cons

Slow growth, low salaries for non management people. Management doesn't listen to employees that are on the lower chain. They look like they listen but they don't.

Pros

decent pay, SEEMS like an evolved pleasent company, SEEMS like. they pay to fly you to holiday parties, that kind of old fashioned "were a family" kind of vibe.

Cons

got laid off, went in one day and BOOM, your gone. "were going in a new direction" and no other communications. thats it. if they can do it to me, an exempt guy, they can do it to anyone. I suspect that is the true nature of AECON. Nice maple syrup canadian veneer, but just another pipe-hittin construction company just like a lot of others.
