Pros

AECOM are a very large organisation, comprising many service lines and offering opportunities to work on a diverse project portfolio in a wide range of geographies.

Cons

Biggest frustration is the admin and bureaucracy that a NY Stock Exchange-listed corporation entails. The size of company can make you feel like a number.

Pros

Decent company, good stock plan, good people who want to see you grow

Cons

Very remote management makes things hard, very little team work is locally siloed so its hard for managers to understand the boots on the ground view. Managers are great people but spread very thin, sometimes they accept work before having staff for it(classic consulting move)
