Aurecon reviews

Gone are the glory days of Connell Wagner and other great names that came before Aurecon. Aurecon is essentially a South African company and an Australian company working as two separate entities and trying to convince you that they are global. Let's hope the new CEO can raise this sinking ship! Constantly told "there are no other jobs our there, you're lucky to be here" or "we can easily send your job offshore, we pay them a third of what we pay you". Bullying seems to be accepted as normal, no repercussions for managers but if an employee makes a complaint they're made out to be the one in the wrong. Performance and development is just a box ticking excercise to satisfy manager's KPIs. Development isn't covered in the performance reviews and we are told that "development isn't as important as KPIs". Senior staff often fail to accept responsibility for problems within the business or within projects, very poor management of staff and projects. Excessive working hours with no thanks, can have long stints of working until 1am or 3am and told that it is entirely acceptable. After working overtime, managers always baulk at allowing staff to take time off in lieu. Promotions and payrises are not about how you perform but rather who you suck up to.

Very poor business admin systems - find yourself repeating the same info on numerous forms. The admin support is very poor/non existing and they think they are running the company. They claim to be focused on quality; however that's all talk. What their really concerned with is whatever BST spits out. People receiving promotion are the real poor performers - talking about building a bridge is not building a bridge.
