Pros

- Great people who work very hard and do their best for their clients. - Get to work on world class, interesting projects

Cons

- Terrible management who are concentrated on their own careers. My managers were terrible at looking after their staff and were more focused on their own careers and jobs. Good people managers are neither recognized or rewarded, the focus is purely on the technical work. - AECOM is only good for people who are very career driven and OK with little to no support. If this is OK with you, then there are many place to go and great projects to work on. - There is little support for non-engineers (environmental scientists, planners etc). It's really an engineering company.
