Pros

Large reservoir of knowledge, experience and skill to draw upon, if you can beat down the path to these peoople.

Cons

The company makes their money through corporate aquisition and massive contracts. Too large and too many people to provide consistent high quality; it's a Wal-Mart. AECOM is poorly structured, it does not feel like "one" company despite the cheerleading. Employees are truely replaceable units and they are squeezed until nothing is left; we are all numbers. It is a big, sloppy, inefficient conglomerate.

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)
