Management lacks leadership skills

Pros

If you enjoy working in the Middle East, then this is your company.

Cons

Very few persons in management have leadership skill or deserve their positions. It's an old boys club with the vast majority being coattail riders. Mediocrity reigns supreme. If you value integrity and innovation, then you probably will not enjoy your time at this company.

Pros

Good work-life balance. Good mixture of staff at the 'shop floor' level. Some very talented and hard working people below management level. Good benefits. Used to be a good and varied workload.

Cons

Steady decline in workload and opportunities due to recession. Global company, but only relocation opportunities are to the Middle East. Ineffective matrix structure. Poor management within business unit resulting in low bid success rate. Too much emphasis on billable hours, resulting in unpaid overtime for proposal and admin work. No recognition from management.
