Larger CE and surveying firms often have huge projects that last for years and help carry them through. Still, they will have significant layoffs. This whole mess is just getting started so who knows how bad it will get.
I’m a one-man surveying company and 2 years ago I turned away turned away 3 to 4 times the work I could perform. Now I only turn away a job every week or two and I wouldn’t turn away any if it wasn’t for the surge of work caused by the fires. Times they are-a-changin.

February 13, 2008 at 9:05 AM #152607seattle-reloParticipantMy husband is a manager for a small CE firm in San Diego, he is responsible for business development. According to him things are pretty tight, finding potential work for his employees is getting harder – even with small government contracts…he ( and other managers) are definately concerned, but I don’t think that the staff engineers are that aware of how slim business is. His company (which I won’t mention by name) has closed one of their offices already.
