Pros

- There were some really nice and friendly people in the company - Lots of learning opportunities, with all the training systems set up in company, which is helpful

Cons

- Was being micromanaged and discouraged for even making smallest mistakes that makes zero difference to final results (like putting coma in sentences, not putting capital letters...etc), with close to no encouragement, even when some really good results came out. - Company appears to be embracing innovation, but at the end of the day, it's just another old school engineering design company - Payrise was very minimal, only managed to receive payrise after 2 years of service (COVID19 scenario was their execuse), and the increase wasn't impressive - Pay was low even by market standard - Upper management preached about flexibility, but whether this will actually be in practice will ultimately depend on who your line manager is & which department you're in

Pros

We had a great team that was made redundant yesterday.

Cons

Aurecon has made redundant 8 project accountants across New Zealand. We came to the office in the morning and at 2pm everyone was dismissed. We were promised redeployment in course of restructuring, promising business partners roles at the end. These roles were fake just to keep us for training Manila team. Poor management that has no idea what happens on the ground. Poor IT system, IT support team makes some changes just to show that they are doing something but not improving systems, they are just making things worse. Top managers do not care about their people and just play with lives. They appointed people from other country, who never saw us before and didn't work with us to send us redundancy letters. Our team leader avoided talking to us for the last 3 weeks and didn't even say goodbye at the end. Think twice if you get an offer from Aurecon. You can become unemployed overnight. Wonder why it is not in news. New Zealand Aurecon got rid of more than 200 people in this year. I checked termination reports from the beginning of the year.
