Wood is the WORST - Anonymous employee Wood Employee Review

Wood is the perfect example of how a company should not be run. Amazed this place is still operating and not bankrupt. Zero diversity, clueless managment overseas, corrupt, unetichal, absolute chaos. There was one month where i did not recieve my paycheck. Had to talk to payroll several times just to get it correct. You can image how this place is if they cannot even pay their employees. Thats not the worst part either. This place is super shady. My boss came up to me and told me i needed to take a paycut because i made too much money. how the hell is that my fault and who has been going around and discussing salaries? no confidentiality whatso ever. Gossip and any talk spreads like crazy. You hear inappropriate lanaguage and racial slurs often and no one seems to mind. There have also been so many charges and unetichal behavior at this place. So many stories I've heard of employees stealing from the company, hiring relatives, unsafe acts, and just utter stupidty. Every acquistion, merger has been done horribly and the latest AMEC Foster is the biggest mess of all. We're all clueless what is going on and management is not forthcoming. We all are worried about layoffs and no one seems to care. Benefits are bad and expensive. Comparing to other oil and gas companies the compensation, heath, rewards is a complete joke. I've spoken to others in the industry who are making 20-30% more with lower and better health insurance premiums. Made a horrible mistake coming here.
