Phillips 66 Employee Reviews about "good benefits"

Pros

Good benefits package when compared with local area and non petro-chem' / heavy industry type employers.

Cons

Benefits package has been significantly de-valued in real terms over recent years. Operations shift staffing levels always at minimum, significant amounts of extra hours expected to be worked at the drop of a hat to cover sickness, holidays and training needs due to minimum staffing levels, often making a working week 84 hours of 12 hour shifts , the final 5 (going into 2 days off) being 12 hour nights. Working week is 40 hours, not the usual 37 hr average now recognised by most employers. Square pegs often expected to fit into round holes. Training is often rushed due to low staffing levels, as long as the trainee knows the answer to the question on the competency sheet they are deemed competent to operate a refinery. Staff who say the right thing to the right people are promoted, not the staff with the most experience or ability. The company has a great business philosophy / charter but it is significantly lost and followed less and less the lower you get within the business, shift operations are at the bottom. The new buildings at Humber make a great impact to visitors and staff who work in them but once you go out onto site the environment including offices and welfare facilities are very dated, often filthy and badly maintained. Often told that there are things going on in the background that we do not know about. Union membership discouraged.

Bureaucratic. Very US focused. Big ideas but rarely followed through.
