Pros

Australian MNC culture before new management from AECOM joined in Aurecon. Benefits arent great but people are nice.

Cons

French management that came from AECOM, so full of themselves. French Regional CFO tries to challenge countries like Indonesia and Thailand's labor law, fired local Finance Managers; and Aurecon ended up suffering the consequences by paying lump sum of compensation to employees that were being laid off. Regional CFO even butts in local countries' admin issues, i.e. went on to scout for office locations without admin committee, says a lot of this person.

Shocking Company Culture!

Pros

- Exposure to unique projects - Good 'Stepping Stone' to more reputable companies

Cons

Oh boy, where do I start!? It's amazing how change in leadership can flip everything upside-down almost overnight. In the course of just a few months the office atmosphere changed dramatically and, at present, only the back-stabbing, take-credit-for-other-people’s-work shoeshines get promoted. Performance is now measured by the way you ‘sell’ yourself to your managers and not by your actual output. Most managers have ‘teacher’s pets’ who get pushed in the back and the rest are neglected and left in the dirt. Top management have become obsessed with timesheets, utilisation and unachievable targets. Almost all projects are now ‘losing money’ hence, you should work more and harder to offset the losses, while at the same time they keep hiring new people at an unprecedented rate. The ‘you are disposable’ message is echoed throughout the whole organisation. The company mantra is that we are supposed to deliver exceptional client experience but at the same time we get hammered over the head for spending time creating a meaningful relationship and not ‘working hard’ to achieve the abovementioned impossible goals.

Pros

Nothing, the entire experience was a nightmare with no positives to note. My thoughts were also shared by my colleagues who resigned soon after i did.

Cons

Everything, joining this company will be the biggest mistake you make. Zero concern for employees & all about utilization. The manner in which senior management treat the staff is disgusting quite frankly. High level of staff turnover further proves this.
