Pros

WP was a good company but Colt was much more loyal to long term employees. Until recently WP offerred great opportunities for growth and experience.

Cons

So sad to see how they've handled the downturn. It's like seeing a dynasty destroyed. A great Alberta success story demolished. WP management have no response to current market conditions other than lay offs. Colt found ways to adapt.

Pros

Salary is great but the office environment has turned into a sweat shop. If salary is all that is important to you, this is a great place for you to work.

Cons

Continuous organizational changes. Way too many procedures to follow. Operating systems are extremely sluggish. I believe they have chosen the budget plan for tech support. Workload is lacking and becomes a hassle trying to find enough time charges to fill a week.

Pros

Used to have good project work.

Cons

First: WorleyParsons Engineering groups are racist. This isn't necessarily unique to Worley in Calgary, but it is most prominent at Worley. That is a bold statement, but when 40% of particular groups are the same as the Lead, then you have to ask yourself this simple question. Second:, WorleyParsons is outsourcing work to China, and laying off local personnel in Calgary. This strategy is backfiring as the Owners don't really want this to happen. So Worley's market share in Calgary is shrinking Third: Worley has very weak project management; yet are very expensive. I do not recommend anybody working for Worley in Calgary. All decisions are being made in Australia and the Aussies have no idea about Canadian culture. Canadians do not embrace the mass out-sourcing of work to China. Communist China is not Canada's friend and Canada should not be out-sourcing Engineering to China.
