      This company sucks - find a smaller one

      Pros

      Opportunities to work on very large and interesting projects. Opportunities to work in other parts of the world. Opportunities to work and learn from very experienced people.

      Cons

      Too many incompetent managers and project managers. Poor communication between management and project discipline leads. Endless, useless emails and demands from the HR department - I DO NOT WORK FOR YOU!! 13 years I worked for UMA Engineering, 2 for Aecom - they ruined what used to be a very good company to work for. My benefits were very good before the merger - thanks for nothing AECOM! VERY poor salary and bonus structure. Career advancement it seems is only possible through placing ones cranium at a agreeable angle to that of your supervisors rectal cavity - talent seems to mean nothing.

        Pros

        My reason is that I should build myself well and bring out the potential that is within me. and i can work well.

        Cons

        The challenge is for me, I want to get out of all the negativity that is inside me. Every moment of every day is like a leap for me

        Underwriter

        I've completed an initial phone screening interview, followed by a 2-hour interview with the Department VP. Next in the process are three separate 90-minute peer interviews. Is there a possibility of another interview after the peer interviews, or should I anticipate receiving an offer?

        Administrative Assistant

        I have an interview with the owner coming up and how would you answer if the they ask when I can start when I have two set/booked vacations in the upcoming months? For reference: I leave for one in 2 weeks for a month and the other one is in the beginning of December for 2 weeks. I don’t want to say immediately because of the trips, but if I don’t say immediately then I might lose the job. Help!

        Hello guys, I applied as Chemical engineer in a big company and I did with them all the interview steps (last one on 05/09/23), at the time of the interview there was no job opening and I got the interview through another division. Last week I received an email saying that they will let me know their final decision by the end of this week. Today I have received an email (with the job description attached) scheduling a call in few days for sharing the decision. Do they want to reject me on call?
