Pros

The benefits at AECOM are terrific, as is the generous amount of time off that is given (3 weeks to start). Fellow employees are supportive of each other, and there are some great and talented people working there.

Cons

Upper management doesn't have a clue. They tend to make decisions based solely on numbers or on the advice of consultants who apparently have no idea what they are talking about. Complete lack of communication from upper management to the lower levels on the most basic things (such as how to get your job done or who to contact when help is needed). They constantly send out memos from the president which mean nothing to most of the employees instead of spending much needed time and energy giving concise and clear directions to employees on what they are expected to do in their jobs. They also tend to fire easily, and at times, unfairly.
