Thread regarding AECOM Technology Corp. layoffs

Consulting in general

I've been n the consulting industry for 10 years now and am currently

Employed by AECOM. I have worked with several consulting firms over the years. The problem with AECOM is a problem shared by the entire consulting industry. Revenue is paramount, and evwrything else is expendable. Employees will be asked to put everything else aside when companies are being constricted by deliverables. You're personal time, health and wellness is less important than their deadlines and profits. When they aren't busy and profitable you will be let go in order to balance their books for that year. It's a terrible industry to work in.

I agree with this and have personally experienced it myself. I was required to work over the Thanksgiving holiday as well as immediately after an echo cardio gram and a procedure to fix a heart condition. I actually had to pull a 38 hour shift before that. I understand project deadlines, but there should be a limit to what you're expected to do.
