AECOM today issued a notice informing employees in its Boise, Idaho office of its intent to reduce its workforce as the firm proceeds with integration efforts resulting from the acquisition of URS last year.
While Boise-based functional departments will reduce in size, AECOM will retain a smaller workforce and relocate to a new office in Lakestone Plaza in Meridian, near Eagle Road and Overland.
AECOM is proud of its legacy companies’ long history in Boise. The firm will continue to offer high-quality engineering and project support services to its clients, continuing its ongoing commitment to the Treasure Valley region.
Those employees to be displaced due to the consolidation will receive notice as required by the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) Act.
