BHP reviews

- Company culture went downhill after the Shale exit: blatant favoritism, cronyism, unmerited promotions, dozens of BS jobs, too much unnecessary work, lots of disengaged managers, high attrition, etc. (This culture is supposed to enable the workforce to take BHP Petroleum to greater heights). - They are extremely preachy with inclusion and diversity (not the right way to do it) while they exhibit a fair amount of conscious biases in the way they hire and promote. - No growth opportunities; too many chiefs and people trying to maintain the status quo. - They offshore too many jobs (and they are open about it); some departments (globally structured) have so many obstacles to get work done. - Only one relevant asset is operated from Houston (declining). This is essentially a non-operated business.

Too many people who do sloppy work and make life miserable for team members who actually try to make the company better. Supervisors picked who are not knowledgeable about the team they are supposed to lead. The lazy or slow-learning employees are not called out and the hard-working ones end up picking up the slack but are under-appreciated. Career development is encouraged, but after seeing people transferred to teams and positions without the basic qualifications to fulfil the roles, it is easy to lose all hope.
