Pros

- Given flexibility to pursue business development opportunities, - Flexible work schedule, given the ability to work from home when necessary

Cons

- lack of strong local leadership, - seemingly lack of organization from top to bottom, more than likely from the numerous mergers over the past

Cons

Wood is beyond salvation. Most dysfunctional company I've ever worked at. Major executive leadership changes every 2 years. How do you expect any kind of stability and effective management when everything completely changes every 2 years? I've had 4, yes 4 line supervisors in just under a year working here. Directors and VP never meet or hold meetings so we all operate in the dark. Frustrating to work when there are no clear goals or guidance and no tools, resources, to do your job. IT has been outsourced, you have to pay for most of your own supplies (cant get a mousepad or head phones - really?, had to buy my own), pretty much a joke here. Alot of layoffs going on some due to the Foster Wheeler acquisition but why fire people only to hire same or simliar roles just a few months later? Makes no sense. Horrible ethics and policies. Have been several cases of employees embezzling money, resources, and giving work to relatives and friends.

Pros

Great people and great work. If you're assigned to a project and you get along with your team, you're going to love it.

Cons

They won't try to keep you. If your project ends and there isn't work, they'll cut you loose and forget you a month later when they need people.
