      An Eye Opener - Senior Engineer KBR Employee Review

      10 Apr 2016
      Senior engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval

      Pros

      - Chance to see the full Project execution cycle - Opportunity to learn from experienced engineers - Chance to work on the plant site if opportunity available - Chance to gain the experience required to become a Chartered Engineer - Experience working with leading clients to understand their unique perspectives

      Cons

      Over 20 years experience working for various oil & gas companies such as Bectel, Technip, Petrofac, BP, Shell. Never came across the following which I unfortunately did in KBR (UK office): - Cronyism - Racism - brushed under the table (the reason I tendered my resignation) - A culture of blame - Unfriendly staff - Stagnant managerial mindset - Hard workers unappreciated - sly opportunists rewarded - Managerial ego allowed to compromise team success - An extremely political workplace - The company lied regarding salary and renumeration

      Pros

      Flex time within a pay month, flexible schedules, an outstanding benefits package including a 401k retirement plans with 100% match on 6% of pretax and Roth contribution elections, several investment options, personalized financial planning through fidelity, employee stock purchase program, student debt retirement savings match program, and HSA options; several health insurance options with a wide range of monthly premiums and available benefits, FSA, HSA, vision, dental (Delta Dental), tuition assistance, PTO, holidays, and much more.

      Cons

      No automatic/across the board annual cost of living pay adjustments, only 5.3 hours total of PTO (with milestone increases for incumbents) each pay period (no separate sick, personal, annual, vacation, etc.), only 9 paid holidays with one floating holiday, no official employee evaluations or measured expectations, many employment pros and cons are dependent on supervisor on the contract - not corporate.
