Thinking about working with AMENTUM? Think again.
First, my view is based only on personal experience. Amentum is part of AECOM, one of the largest engineering corporations in the world. Unfortunately, Amentum is also one of the most corrupt companies I've ever seen.
Last year, an employee almost died performing a dangerous act, against the advice of technical experts. When employees tried to address the manager, he brushed it off and made no changes. Multiple managers have a history of negligence, racism, sexism, and government fraud.
I made statements about the work conditions and they claimed to have resolved the issues. Yet, the company did nothing about the manager I complained about. A few weeks later, I was rushed to another location but needed to handle personal business and had to stay a little late because my wife thought she was sick with COVID19.
Instead of allowing me to return, they fired me for "non-essential travel during the pandemic." Yet, there have never been "non-essential travel" laws, just guidelines. The real reason they fired me was retaliation for complaining.
Never work with such a petty company. Lesson learned. I thought that this was an isolated event but it seems to be common within the greater AECOM corporation. No attorney would take my case because they didn't understand how to handle the case, considering the ambiguous nature of the event.

No. Watch / Google Tabitha. She’s the blonde who overhauls sinking salons.
You don’t need a business degree to open a salon: you need to be passionate about hair and style. Know your craft and hire people with degrees.
A hair salon, especially in today’s market with covid, will not pay off the school debt. You’ll get stressed out and end up in a field you’re not passionate about…like an entry level customer service credit card reporting job.
Go in the field you love. The money comes to those who do what the love.
So, open the salon by renting space in someone else’s salon; build your client base; ask to learn the business side of running a salon on your days off.
That’s the path of least resistance; optimal happiness; and fiscal responsibility.
Best of luck.
