Pros

Great technical people Interesting projects Strong project management tools for large projects

Cons

Corporate Management does not know how to weather the storm. They hang in there with mining and O&G and are slow to change. There is a reason why share price is at $3.50 now, dropping from 26 less than 3 yrs ago

Pros

-Multinational company with offices all around the world serving the energy, resource, power and infrastructure sectors. The company offers various employment opportunities and encourages mobility between the offices. -Reasonable remuneration packages -Good working atmosphere -Good emphasis on ethics and code of conduct.

Cons

-Over the past 3 to 4 years, company attempted to improve its global structure and attempted more and more centralization of systems and procedures. This was carried out at a horrendous cost but only led to more bureaucracy, stifling rigidity in implementation and huge inefficiencies in the execution. -Multiple restructuring attempts based on whims and inexperience led to a more vertical organization and the creation of ineffective layers of management at a huge cost to the business. -Restructuring attempts continued to combine offices into larger entities leading to lack of focus, vague direct accountabilities and uncertain commitment to profitability at the core execution centres. -A horde of managers evolved that were big talkers but provided little or no support to the actual project delivery effort.
