Pros

Company gets the opportunity to to bid and work on some of the most iconic projects in the world, professional development is well supported.

Cons

Methods of identifying high potential employees and payment structure is archaic and resulting in lots of talented staff leaving as the industry wages are very competitive at the moment. Pay is below market average

It is encouraging to hear that the projects and development opportunities have been a strong part of your experience with us. You have also been very clear about where things are not working as well, particularly around pay levels and how talent is identified and progressed. These are important areas, especially in a competitive market where expectations around reward and recognition are evolving quickly. The point you’ve made about reviewing promotion metrics and ensuring they feel relevant and fair is valuable insight. It is something we continue to reflect on as we look to improve how we support and retain our people.
