Pros
Atkins is surviving only because of its people, however they do not realize it. The only thing that i liked about my entire career with Atkins were the people around.
Cons
Starting from the lower level to the higher level there is “Micro Management” at all times. You are forced to do things that you do not want to do. Even if you have a plan that you know could work, you wouldn't be allowed to execute. There is “no hierarchy” as people with less experience are hired for higher positions. They talk about career goals and how you can grow in Atkins but the truth is “You Can Never Grow”. You will be promised a lot of things when you initially start your career but you will never see it happen. If you know how to "Butter" people then you would best suit Atkins. The senior management has all the power and uses it as per their own will. Even if you have done a lot and speak about it in your review meetings you will still be rated as an average performer and will be given a “Lesser Hike”. People around will be promoted and a particular section of recruiters will see “No Growth” because they are the targeted people in the entire “UK Recruitment”. The “Management Finds Reasons To Put You Down” especially if you have a "Big mouth", you are outspoken and if you stand for what you think is right. This company “Will Never Value You”, even if you have stood up with the company and agreed on a salary cut when needed. They talk about “Safety Of Women” but have never thought of how people will travel even in the pandemic. You “Will Be Pushed Out Of The Company Anytime” even if you are a loyal employee without a strong reason.
