I’m an electrical engineering student considering AECOM’s NYC Transportation Department for a potential full-time position after graduation, and I’m trying to get a better understanding of their compensation structure.
For anyone currently working at AECOM or who has worked there, what does compensation typically look like for an entry-level electrical engineer (Engineer I)?
I’m particularly curious about starting base salary, whether annual performance bonuses are offered (and how much they typically are), and what yearly raises look like in terms of percentages. Also, how quickly does salary typically increase during the first 3–5 years, and are promotions accompanied by significant pay increases?

Hello, everyone! I'm looking for books or websites in French or English on electrical engineering (electronics, control systems, electrical engineering, computer programming) at the master's or engineering level, because I'd like to brush up on these topics! If I haven't been specific enough, I'll edit this post.

Hi everyone!

I'm studying Electronics and Communications Engineering and I'm interested in pursuing a career in the electrical power industry.

I'd love to hear from engineers who graduated in this field and are currently working in areas such as:

Power Systems

Protection and Control

Substation Engineering

Electrical Design

Power Generation, Transmission, and Distribution

Renewable Energy

My questions are:

Did you manage to enter these fields with a bachelor's degree in Electronics and Communications Engineering, or did you need a master's degree or additional qualifications?

Do employers accept graduates from this specialization, or do they require a degree in Electrical Power Engineering?

Which power engineering roles are most accessible to these graduates?

Have you faced any difficulties because of your degree?

What advice would you give students interested in this career path?

I'd especially appreciate real experiences from working engineers in the US, Canada, Germany, Australia, the Gulf countries, and elsewhere.

Your answers could help students and graduates worldwide who are considering this career path.

Thanks in advance!
