      Worst Employer in my Experience (AECOM - Philadelphia, Aviation Dept.)

      Pros

      Good working conditions. Healthcare benefits were acceptable. Location in the city was good. Dress code was relaxed over the years.

      Cons

      Top down mentality. Management lives by and promotes an "us versus them (management v staff)" mentality. Management is sexist, racist and homophobic. Management does not have even one iota of a concern for staffs' personal lives. Staff is encouraged to lie on time sheets in order to maximize billable rate and corporate profits, thereby cheating clients. Management regularly disparages clients, internally. Management tries to placate staff by buying pizza for lunch, and making other trivial gestures; I often refused to take part. There's a general disrespect for new ideas from staff. They just want you to do what you are told, and that was actually said to me.

      Pros

      Hmmm, good benefits, fair salary

      Cons

      Real lack of communication, at all levels. No real sense of teamwork. No feedback from management other than when mistakes are made. I would not recommend AECOM at this point . They are trying to identify why they cannot attract and keep talent. Perhaps some time in the future things will change.

      Pros

      It's a job. They cover large projects

      Cons

      It's a machine. Driven by pleasing the shareholders with the least amount of risk. They screw over the most junior. Expect to work for over 20% less and get told times are hard. Development...forget it. This company encourages bullying and intimidation with promotions and pay increases. It may be a large company, it's problems are even bigger. It will not last long. In my department I witnessed that there were few ethics and little in the way of professional standards.
