Pros

AECOM has a lot of very smart and talented employees who work very hard. It is a prestige Fortune 500 global engineering firm with a large variety of clients and projects.

Cons

Morale is a big problem with voluntary turnover north of 12 percent. AECOM has many layers of bureaucracy. Enormous pressure on financial metrics including an aggregate operations utilization goal of 81 percent. Senior managers in the US get an email every Sunday regarding utilization performance in their group.

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)
