Vantaggi

Its relatively easy to get international assignments. Appears to be strong on compliance with the law. Very interesting, world class project work opportunities AECOM's employees are had deep and diverse pool of technical expertise

Svantaggi

"Do you have a charge code for that?" is the most common phrase used by AECOM employees. The reason for this is because the only measure of an employee's worth that really counts here is utilization (the number of hours you work divided by the number of hours they pay you for). If you don't have enough billable hours to put enough hours on your timecard (most people are expected to be 90% to 100% billable), you have to take vacation time or unpaid leave, but still be at your desk. If you have more than 40 hours billable work, you only get paid for 40. Why is that? Because executive management need cashflow to pay the interest bill on the money they borrow to make acquisitions. Why to they make acquisitions? its a way faster way to increase executive earnings than organic growth. As earlier reviewers predicted, people are beginning to leave for better opportunities now that the economy has improved.

Vantaggi

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

Svantaggi

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)
