Business Outlook

Pros

Civil engineering culture pervades - calm, measured Lots of nice people V interesting work. Some genuinely cool innovation on projects. Much more gender diverse/inclusive than competitors, but more work needed Some great case impacts and eminent experts Great DEI, work life balance and soft benefits (inc flex)

Cons

Civil engineering culture pervades- road/rail is top of pecking order Leadership are mostly Aurecon lifers - partly meritocracy partly patronage (or matronage!). Key issues never get addressed/resolved- tied in knots on who decides what- consensus driven but siloes/ long running cold wars. Offline chats using firm buzz words rather than open conflict/challenge/plain speak Says it wants growth above market rate and no risk. Gets neither. Says it wants to be innovative, but doesnt want anything to ever 'fail' even if its a small project etc. Corporate Support functions tail wags the dog Firm equity not local P&L profit share (everyone comfortable once budget looks like being hit, which is mostly a function of the prevailing market) Internal processes are not good- fails to live up to brand promise
