Pros

Overall great people to work with. It's very possible to work you're 40 hours and no overtime. Wonderful benefits: this is why people stay. They pay your healthcare premiums if you have an HSA and contribute to your account each pay. 401k is a 5% match that vest right away. Tuition reimbursement doesn't create a contract.

Cons

It's a very split company. You have old Atlas and new Atlas. Old Atlas believes if its not broke don't fix it (thus AS400). New Atlas wants more efficient processes. It's a constant struggle between them. As far as accounting is concerned, the departments aren't good at helping one another out. Its been rough for them: 4 different controllers in less than 2 years along with 2 restructurings, a round of layoffs.

Pros

Excellent benefits and severance packages.

Cons

A Managed Limited Partnership with no leadership. The leadership running this company is comprised up of bankers and New York businessmen, not Oil & Gas Professionals. They know how to move and manage money, but due to the nature of the tax shelter side of the business, funds are incredibly mismanaged. Atlas receives funding from people who are avoiding paying taxes, they have time constraints to spend the money within allotted IRS guidelines and therefore spend money drilling assets they do not fully understand geologically and operationally. Millions of dollars are drained into sub-par basins, i.e. the Marble Falls and Mississippi Lime basin, with little to no thought on operational costs and expenses.
