  • As a whole I feel that ATOS do appreciate their apprentice's as they go out of there way to allow apprentices to meet one another and also higher up members of the company. They seem to want to help people to progress further in the company.

  • 5. How well organised/structured is your programme?
  • when I started there was a couple of areas that were not so organized, and throughout the program I have had a change of QA assessors, this has made things slightly more complicated, but I am almost at the end of my program now and I don't think it will affect the outcome.

  • 7. How well does your salary/package meet your costs?
  • Personally I do struggle, but I think this is because before I started here I had many prior bills I was committed too including paying for a car. however I do agree that the wage is good for an apprenticeship!

  • 8. Are there many opportunities outside of work?
  • There have been some opportunities outside of work, however these events have been planned by members of the team I work for rather than the company as a whole.

    5/10

  • 9. Would you recommend Atos to a friend?
  • Yes


  • 9b. Why?
  • I think that ATOS gives people the opportunity to learn on the job with the potential to progress. I started my apprenticeship at 23 as a way to move away from the hospitality industry while still remaining in customer service, ATOS value the experience I have and let me advance on it rather than replace it.


  • 10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Atos?
  • Don't be shy when it comes to interviews and assessment days, the days are too see how well you would work as a part of ATOS, if you are pretending you may be uncomfortable in the position.
