Good company, bad (former) management - Senior Environmental Director Key Energy Services Employee Review

2.0

Pros

At one time, Key was a great company. Unfortunately, past management and BoD pretty much ran this company into the ground. The current crises has less to do with the downturn than it does with a 10 year process of poor acquisitions and horrible business decisions. New management has a lot of challenges.

Cons

Company filed Chapter 11. What else do you really need to know? CEO listed below is incorrect. Alario has been gone for almost a year...best decision the BoD made the past 10 years.

Pros

Key is a great company, good pay ontime, perdiem can't be matched. Good benefits. Big improvement on pick ups

Cons

People always trying to move up and will throw there coworkers under the bus for that. Don't ever know who is your real boss is. It really depends who's u kiss to move up. Yard I was at is really bad on that. The managers friends don't matter if they have experience or not they always move up. Favoritism is the only way you move up experience or not
