      Horrendous management, worst HR I've ever seen

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Incredible potential as a rapidly growing mid-sized oil/gas company

      Cons

      Lack of a defined culture - mix of top-down dictatorial leadership from Copenhagen and endless discussion in Houston. Leadership in Houston, specifically of Chissonga project, is highly dysfunctional - turnover in the Houston office is at an all-time high. People are always searching for other opportunities due to high dissatisfaction. HR tries to operate the Houston office like a small company, but it's a large firm now and should be treated as such. To their credit, recent changes have significantly improved in recruitment and internal processes.

Well, from the moment I joined, there have been constant layoffs and an overall everlasting sense of insecurity. Every decision and every policy was covered by a smoke of secrecy. No transparency at any point whatsoever. There was the feeling that the company was AGAINST its own employees. Some time ago, the Senior Management decided to 'realign' our roles to increase productivity. After numerous questions around potential redundancies, we were repeatedly told that no layoffs will take place in the near future. You can guess what actually happened. Right before Christmas '25 they decided to lay off 100s of people. Had the company been honest and clear I would not be that upset about the whole situation; things like this happen. However, the overall attitude of Senior Management is the worst I have ever seen during my career. Please avoid like the p
