No vision - just worried about current quarter

Pros

Some solid potential. There still are some good clients. Good team members. Benefits are good - with perks if you know where to look because of buying power.

Cons

No leadership - they completely have blinders on. They feel that email blasts are not just communication, but effective communication. No opportunity for advancement or salary increases - it effectively costs you money to stay at AECOM because, while executive pay increased over 40% 2013-2014, the average increase for the people producing the product that is sold was less than the cost of living increase in the US.

Pros

Good People to work with who care about their jobs

Cons

Management could care less if people stay or leave. Everyone is just a number. A lot of corporate policies put in place hinder work productivity and only serve as distractions from the real work. Utilization metric is overbearing, and the company basically wants you to do non-billable work requirements, e.g. trainings, etc. on your own time

Pros

traditionally employee oriented, compensates well, mid management is supportive, employees are great to work with.

Cons

new CEO and merger with the URS culture puts shareholder equity, profitability, and cost reduction before all else. the old adage, "employees are furniture," comes to mind.
