Aurecon is a great company to work for

Pros

Love the focus on design thinking, innovation and design to innovate workshops, it's a welcome change in an industry that's so traditional. Love the green offices and wall plants as well as the office culture

Cons

Well it's a mid tier company and offices are only located in South Africa, Asia and Australia/NZ. So in that sense it's limiting your career growth opportunities and career travel opportunities. Otherwise, absolutely awesome company!

Pros

External market branding is good. Some very clever people.

Cons

Business has lost its way. Top management (C suite) have a clear vision, but the next level of management are unable to implement it. Too many long term staff whose best work is in the past. The South African business operate unto themselves. Has been described as a franchise - looks the same on the outside, but the regions do things their own way.

Pros

Highly skilled engineers Wide range of projects Opportunity to get involved in some very technical projects

Cons

Very top heavy - too many executives holding on to their position at the expense of staff below Politics - if your in the wrong clique or work for the wrong Director then your days are numbered! Old boys club of executive shareholders sitting at the top, protecting their dividends and mates Hire and fire mentality Business strategy seems to be solely focused on getting bought out by a bigger company so the execs can make their millions and retire!
