truly inept senior management with absolutely no vision whatsoever.
EMT (executive management team) is a holdover from Fluor's days as a privately held company to reward friends and family, it is not an appropriate structure for a large public company. some in management seem to realize this but are afraid to rock the boat. mostly only old, white, republican men are invited "into the club", most have been with the company 30+ years, and many achieve this status as a sycophant with staying power and little real skill. EMT are the only employees with real incentive/long-term compensation such as stock grants/options and significant bonus compensation unless you started right out of college (or are recruited at a senior level), forget about real long-term market compensation.
there is no innovation in management: standard solution is to offshore to low cost locations in India and Philippines. period. investment in technology and new solutions is minimal.
there are very few women and people of color in senior positions. management's efforts to increase diversity and address demographic challenges facing the company are insincere and hollow. lack of long-term compensation for those at lower levels exacerbates the demographic challenges facing this company.
TOWP (time off with pay) sounds good upon first consideration but is actually less than many other companies. 1-4 years of seniority provides 25 days, but holidays + vacation + sick time come from that bank. considering the standard 10 holidays at most companies, that is 15 days of PTO (sick/vacation/personal time). this increases to 30 days at 5 years. no other increases occur until much later. it's mediocre at best.
