Pros

Big company, good benefits, overall as a package is enticing

Cons

This company drives you to the ground. They expect you to work long hours, without overtime pay. The entire company is riddled with politics and terrible treatment to their employees. Managers micromanage, are constantly on vacation or golfing and upper management supports this behaviour. Upper management is not helpful at all and neither is HR at this company, they are running a gong show. The few people who are doing their job right don’t get rewarded and are put in awkward situations

Work a lot. And the weather in Michigan is cold. I have to wear lots of coats and bundle up all the time.

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.
