Pros

pay was good and benefits to some extent

Cons

you are just a cog in the machine. short-sighted management lives by the monthly tick of the stock price and not what will make the company better. they believe they can just keep acquiring other companies to keep the growth going while frustrating their employees with burdensome paperwork that doesn't help project budgets. if AECOM decides your location or business line is not of value to them, you are gone no matter what your work ethic/history has been.
