Super diverse, have been lucky enough to contribute to a wide range range of projects conducting a wide range of tasks. When you start, you'll likely have reasonably mundane tasks but as you build familiarity with the processes and rapport with project managers you will quickly get more challenging and interesting work.

Pros and cons of working at AECOM
Pros
The flexibility to work from home as I am completing a Masters so it is much easier to finish work and do uni from there rather than worry about commuting etc.
The culture across all teams is the best, AECOM hires GOOD people, not just technical people.
We get a wide range of projects so there is always something interesting to hear about and to participate in.
Great opportunities to network and meet the senior leaders within the company.
The flexibility with helping out in different teams during your graduate years helps you develop a variety of skills and explore which department might suit you best.
Cons
The pay is well below market rate.
Work alternates between being fast or slow, depending on projects won.
Lack of technical work initially, I have only just begun to be involved in technical work despite starting in early 2024.
The inconsistencies in the performance and rewards process.
There is a lot of pressure on billability, even when you cannot do much about it.
