Pros

It's a big company, and has financial backing

Cons

They have no interest in you personally. We were acquired in a buyout, and they have never done anything to promote our business line. Now they are shutting it down and laying everyone off.

Pros

My position allowed me to have a flexible work schedule, including working from home which was very desirable. The work was interesting.

Cons

The work environment overall was not friendly. Due to the billable hour requirement people tended to be very protective of the jobs they were working on and not willing to share information. My manager resided in Philadelphia and I never met him face-to-face. As a result he was not familiar with the work that I did or my capabilities.

Pros

- Great pay - Smart people - All the resources in the world can be promised.

Cons

- If you are in a remote part of the country, all resources are promised but none can be delivered. - Attorneys will make sure you never have a signed MSA. - Employment is week to week depending on your utilization. - If you are in a satellite office you really don't exist and you have no future within AECOM. At best you are a hired mercenary focused on bringing in as much money in as short time as possible. - AECOM answers to its shareholders, not its clients or employees. - Zero client focus, driven from the top down. - AECOM does not take the long term view, they don't care if they burn bridges or ruin client relationships as so long as they have made money. - Chases projects, not clients.
