Business Outlook
Pros
If you are in the right office and sector, it can be a good time to be at Atkins. If you aren't, you will stay on a downward slide. There have been lots of defections from the PBS&J days, and they haven't been replaced.
Cons
Many technical people have to find work for themselves because the "business unit" people either don't do it or only do it for the discipline they are part of. The business model restricts technical people from doing business development. It doesn't work. Atkins keeps adding business unit mouths to feed and isn't addressing the technical deficiencies or providing the support they need. They have little/no interest in supporting career or professional development.
