Pros

I was always treated fairly and was always given expanded responsibilities as my experience grew. I never felt like i had to negotiate in order to grow. I just came with experience and of course, performance.

Cons

KBR's involvement as a overseer and approach to risk management, because they are a public entity may limit future pursuits and opportunities.

Pros

Good pay 9/80 work schedule International Lot of employees with 30+ years of tenure

Cons

Very poor communication, poor work life balance, constant reorganizations that lead to inefficient work and wasted time leading to poor morale Challenge is due to stressful environment, constant rework and change, and needless drama and stress. A lot of "who you know" and "what is your title" behavior instead of being a team working for the same company.
