Pros

There are still some key staff left. I hope that there is a glimmer of what made SKM a reasonable place to be left.

Cons

The new model isn't what it was sold as being. You need to win work you can't just keep cutting staff.

Pros

Decent culture, individual contributors are fine, management is lacking

Cons

The company operates like many smaller companies depending on which business market you are in so your experience will vary. For some, it's the best company, others will say it's the worst; it just depends on your region/group even at the local level. Water/wastewater is a good market in most offices, transportation is hit an miss depending on location.
