Pros

1.Decent pay 2.Even being in the oil and gas industry, it recruits graduates from aeronautical engg background too. A big plus. 3. Great place to work if you are a Lead Engineer. You just need to focus on number of billing hours of each employee at the end of the month. 4. Young co-workers and hence vibrant environment with decent amount of activities. 5. Work abroad for a short period of time.

Cons

1. One man show. Great place to work if you can impress him. 2. Big time nepotism. You will reap rich dividends if you are a girl. This will include team changes of your choice, higher pay, international trips of your choice et cetera. 3. Graduate engineers are recruited from top-colleges but the lead engineers and managers come from local IT companies and don't have basic knowledge. One doesn't have an engineering degree. 4. Pathetic HR. They are unresponsive and take no steps to reduce attrition. Really small finance team and hence stress on the finance manager. 5. Stress is given on how much you work and not on how good you work. 6. One has to do anything that is thrown at him by the FMC majors like Singapore and Norway. Most of the work is stupid and menial. An employee is not encouraged to challenge or question the locations (customers) no matter how crappy the work is. All that matters is number of billing hours. 7. Lots of employees are jobless. This ruins the work environment. 8. Employee suggestions and complains are scoffed at with sarcasm. 9. More trainings on English and email etiquette than on products and engineering. 10.Indian employees are sent to work at different locations under the cover up "training". They are not trained at all and are made to work instead as the labour cost is less. Abysmally low per-diems. Just enough for bare minimum survival. One employee had his visa rejected because the consulate felt that the per diems were too low for "subsistence" in the United States.

Pros

Open Culture, Long term international assignments, no micro management and good technological advancement compared with industry.

Cons

1. Managers are helpless with next to Zero responsibility. 2. No career plan chalked out neither for experienced professionals nor for fresh graduates. 3. Favoritism: Big time. People in Hou, Nor, Sing are mostly girls if not somehow book licked their puppet managers. 4. Rotten and downgraded work quality. Please give ansys guys some licenses to rub. 5. HR - negative on a scale of 10. They sit on the same old policies and pay no heed to present scenario. 6. One man show has already been written- no stressing there. PS: If you can impress one man, this company is no match to even Google in perks. (Promotions, Money, Travel you name it)

Pros

FMC is a good place to get oil and gas experience. The name carries some weight within the industry and will open the door to more desirable companies.

Cons

Where do I start? 1. FMC is an engineering firm that is trying (very poorly by the way) to be a manufacturing firm. 2. One of the most poorly executed Supply Chains in the industry. 3. Benefits are a complete joke. 4. Management is arrogant, and lack the ability to affect meaningful change that would improve their operations. 5. Most unprofessional organization that I have ever worked for. 6. The volume of meetings at this place is unbelievable. 7. 4 main regions across the globe (that all seem to despise each other). 8. Their enacted values absolutely contradict their espoused core values. 9. The definition of a fire fighting organization. 10. The organization is in very real danger of actually getting worse, but rather than fix the broken process, management attacks the symptoms, plays the "blame game" and rewards the fire fighters that get the equipment to the customers 9 weeks late as opposed to 10 weeks late.
