Pros

Talented people - good place for graduates to learn new skills from industry experts. Attention is placed on employee engagement and provided the business is profitable, there is training provided - both on the job & externally. There are opportunities to work on great projects and for travel within Australia and globally. The company is well managed, determined to keep its services relevant in a changing marketplace and generally, fair and equitable to staff.

Cons

After working in one section of Aurecon for a number of years, it is increasingly hard to transfer into another section to gain different experience. I would also warn against working for any consultant for too long (5-10+ years) as it may be difficult to find work in industry if labelled as a 'consultant'. Like all Australian engineering consultants, Aurecon has not been immune to retrenchments over the past 3 years in order to maintain adequate returns to its private shareholders. Aurecon struggles when it comes to gender diversity but this somewhat symptomatic of the few women studying engineering.
