Pros

Flexibility of work, work from home

Cons

Only looking good from outside or those bluffing on social media platforms. Always promoting innovation and digital, but no any practical outcome. Lots of excuses for not making any pay change, employees efforts and hard work not recognized. Female colleague gets promote quicker in order to boast "diversity"

Pros

Some genuinely good people with great technical skills trying to deliver value and do the right thing.

Cons

Where to start. By design Aurecon is structured like multiple cottage industries where each unit manager does their own thing. Strategic enterprise initiatives are not adhered to which means projects are done in multiple ways, potentially even for the same client. Dependent upon my project leader a project will be structured in different ways. Rev Rec week is a disaster when the business becomes very internally focused and the key client becomes other Aurecon units! The unit managers are driven by their P&L which means narcissism is rife and rewarded. The people who designed this system are being asked to fix it; the old boy network is alive and well. If you don't belong to the right clique then this place is soft on performance and tough on people, the power based, directive culture has worsened in the last 12 months. There are currently 5 CFO’s in the business and for all the spin from the new CEO nothing has really improved in our day to day world. In summary a horrible place to work, with little career development, you walk around with a target on your back and where power based, narcissistic, machiavellian politics is rewarded.
