Pros

Excellent pay & comp. Good brand for your CV if you want to stay in the industry.

Cons

Chaotic approach to the energy transition. An excellent and highly competent workforce led by an incompetent and unqualified layer of leadership for this company size. Worley has no idea about what to do about the energy transition. How can they go from EPCm multi billion$ hydrocarbon plants to delivering low value and very simple renewable assets? They are hemorrhaging good people and chewing up a lot of shareholder cash trying to solve the problem, but no way to solve it without a gutsy diversification move, and current leadership does not have the caliber to deliver that. Lots of pressure to install women and minorities to leadership coming from the board & shareholders (which is a laudable goal), but the execution of this has led to even worse and more acute competency issues. People at EVP level cannot even understand a simple cash flow statement. It's really bad - the worst I've ever seen in my 20yr career.

Constant CCLOA (Company Convenience Leave Of Absence), seems like you get busy, get settled in and doing a good job, then there are mass CCLOA letters sent out which generally turn into a Lay Off ...
