Pros
I've been trying and trying and trying, but I cannot come up with anything good to say about this company. I worked at URS for 15 years and one month before we were acquired by AECOM. It then took nine months for the Grim Reaper to find me.
Cons
This is a company that does not value its employees. When AECOM acquired URS in Jan 2015, there were ~100,000 employees. Now my former colleagues tell me they're down to ~85,000. Employee morale is in the toilet as everyone wonders if they're next. Salaries are low. Benefits aren't. There is constant reorganization; one AECOM old-timer told me he'd been through 26 reorganizations in 22 years.
