WSP Ruined Parsons Brinckerhoff

Pros

Parsons Brinckerhoff (PB) invested in their employees PB centralized global functions, resulting in global consistency and economies of scale savings PB provided work flexibility

Cons

After WSP purchased PB, investments in employee development ceased. WSP decentralized many functions and took a regional approach, resulting in a patchwork of systems and support staff. Each region now has to purchase their own systems, resulting in drastic increase in costs. Management only wants to push costs down to regions even if it ultimately costs 10x more money. WSP doesn't understand or care about work flexibility/employee happiness. Upper management is too busy trying to grow business through acquisitions and is not focused on managing current business. Once acquisitions take place, the integration process is poorly communicated and sloppy at best.
