Pros

Some good exciting projects while the work was going. Met some good people. Not much else really....

Cons

There seemed to be an every man for himself protectionist attitude. Its not what you know but who you can suck up too that gets one places (advancement, pay rise, job safe etc) in my experience with Aurecon. Heavy focus on old boys club with their favourite pets by senior management. The rest are expendable and couldn't really care what happens to them. Lack of effective communication, inspiration and direction by management. The company also seems to be overly bloated by bureaucratic procedures and endless form filling out. Career advancement seems to be merely a box ticking exercise. Employees wishes in regards to experience and career advancement take a back seat. Extremely top heavy management structure. Expectations on staff to "put in the big ones" but no gratitude or reward for doing so. To be fair alot of these cons are experienced at other companies so not unique to Aurecon. Aurecon just seemed to be totally accepting of these short comings and unapologetic about it

Pros

*The flexibility at work was major pro. You deliver your products at your peak productive times. * I met some really good project managers that i could learn from. Some great mentors. * They have amazing projects. * if you have a decade of experience before you join the company, you will do really well.

Cons

* They over hired at some point and got rid of people because they couldn't bag projects. How unplanned they must be to do that? Add to it, they leave you alone when you don't have projects and then fire you when you finally have work on your plate.Just when you think you are doing well, you are out. That shows poor planning on their end. * They hire inexperienced people without any actual world experience and expect them to create wonders.

Pros

Good engineers some good projects

Cons

Aurecon is the same as other companies, not match what they advertise on social media platforms. All your efforts will be gone to advertise, such as innovative... but the AD is not 100% true. The company will never truly want to invest in innovation or employees, but just make some noise on the social platforms.
