Pros

AECOM is a large company with vast resources, and this makes it possible to pursue the most interesting projects out there. It also has offices all over the world, which makes it possible to stay with the same company if you have to move.

Cons

There was a lot of turnover at AECOM when I was there, and this made it difficult to cultivate relationships with clients and develop teams. Turnover was particularly common among senior levels which gave the impression that the company's leadership did not care very much for its employees. Another downside was that the company was so large that it tried to do everything, and perhaps it was spread too thin.

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)
