Pros

The company has some interesting contracts. The compensation and benefits were top notch. And there were opportunities especially if you were willing to go overseas.

Cons

WP worries more about their internal processes than the clients's wants or needs. I was embarrassed by the quality of work done for the customer. The contract I was involved with was as a customer's engineer. These were small projects ranging from a hundred thousand to several million dollars. The WP process was to run the projects like a 800 million dollar project.

Pros

Large, well-established business lines in most geographic regions. Expansion into emerging economies to capture growth opportunities.

Cons

Bureaucratic creep stifles positive workplace culture, which leads to good people leaving. Lack of clear communication at many levels of the organization. Unnecessary complexity. Excessive dependence on hydrocarbons sector for most of revenue, need to diversify.

Pros

Salaries are actually pretty good. Company promotes flex hours, every second friday off, and work-life balance. Nice work environment, everyone is friendly. The company works on primarily big projects (could be a negative as well). Opportunity to travel... I transferred cities for a year with no issues.

Cons

Typical big company procedures, paperwork and hoops to jump through. I find the knowledge sharing between senior and junior staff to be lacking. Not many internal technical seminars. Worley doesn't seem to value technical expertise as much as other companies. More focused on getting and completing work, rather than going the extra mile or winning one-off projects.
