"Been at AECOM & Legacy 8 years. The staff at all levels on the "delivery" side are excellent, but their morale takes a constant beating from Corporate's annual setting of ridiculous growth targets (This year's doozy is a goal of a 25% increase in transportation wins!!!). Thus when we fail to hit them, they pillage current projects of funds by taking profit before work is done, or declare income on work not done, take profit from "option" work which when not awarded, leads to further cuts in funds. So the trumpeting by the board about ethics rings hollow. I'd recommend AECOM as a great place to a start and grow a career in engineering, but if you're senior you will learn nothing from the corporate managers, in Canada at least. They will break this company I believe."
"15 year employee... I miss the place!!"
"It's a good company with many nice people. It is professional in many aspects. You can work for different types of project. But salary increase is really slow."
"I have been working for AECOM for 8 years. The company provided opportunities to employees when it was good shape. However, the mis-management brought it to down time."
"I've worked with AECOM for 10 years and the beginning years was a very pleasant experience. The past 2 years when we got a new CIO things went downhill. They laid off 1/3 of the IT Support and changed the overall system and after 2 years went to outsource the IT support."
"Average benefits, no bonus, less than 2% raise, flexible hours, limited opportunities."
"I have worked in AECOM for a year and it has been a nice experience since I joined."
"I have worked for AECOM for 8 years (since I was in ENSR) and although the work variety has been good and the people I have been working with have been great, the corporate climate is dismal. There is little room for internal advancement and due to drastic RIFs, morale is the lowest I have ever seen it. I can not recommend joining this company unless you are an entry-level staffer looking for your first position in the industry."
"Good according to my experience"
"I've worked for this company for 8 years. The supervisors are good, but the management system is a little bit messy."
"I worked with Aecom on two different occasions once in 2007 and again 2012 and both times it was a very upbeat company where you can grow with them. The only reason I left was I was tired of working in war zones and in countries with a lot of troubles."
"AECOM has many different contracts so this may not be applicable to the entire company. But this particular contract is not the best. Compensation along with holiday time etc. is far from great. The coworkers are great to talk to, but there is a common sentiment of dissatisfaction among everyone."
"Ethical but disfunctional"
"I very much enjoyed working with AECOM."
"Disgusting company, THANK GOD I left!!! It was a joke working for them. I worked for them in Afghanistan and seriously I'm lucky to still be alive. All the employees on contract are soon to be fired and they are holding their breath on when. The PMO are idiots who sleep around with each other and if not sleeping with each other, go off base to sleep with locals. DO NOT WORK FOR THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
