Pros

Big Tier 1 company, unlike smaller organisations - Downer will give you all you need to preform your duties, including any professional support. this is a stable organisation with large pipeline of work. safety is a priority and so as quality. i have learnt a lot working there. this is also have a good addition to my CV as other companies love ex- Downer employees.

Cons

not much. no personal touch as its too big so it is all about your close team.
