Pros

We had a great team that was made redundant yesterday.

Cons

Aurecon has made redundant 8 project accountants across New Zealand. We came to the office in the morning and at 2pm everyone was dismissed. We were promised redeployment in course of restructuring, promising business partners roles at the end. These roles were fake just to keep us for training Manila team. Poor management that has no idea what happens on the ground. Poor IT system, IT support team makes some changes just to show that they are doing something but not improving systems, they are just making things worse. Top managers do not care about their people and just play with lives. They appointed people from other country, who never saw us before and didn't work with us to send us redundancy letters. Our team leader avoided talking to us for the last 3 weeks and didn't even say goodbye at the end. Think twice if you get an offer from Aurecon. You can become unemployed overnight. Wonder why it is not in news. New Zealand Aurecon got rid of more than 200 people in this year. I checked termination reports from the beginning of the year.

Pros

Good people, can create a great culture and there’s a wealth of knowledge. Perfect for grads. Amazing office

Cons

Some of the work can be dry. If you aren’t used to consulting, it can be overwhelming. Money is average, it’s hard to move up at all. If you would like to work on a particular project, they will encourage you to reach out and ask, but you’re not likely to get on that project. Likewise, if you don’t like a project, they don’t have any incentive to take you off it. You’re just a number really. They say things like they like people who “believe it, say it, do it!” But if you speak up about someone or something that isn’t right, they brush it off.
