BHP reviews

Lack of communication from management. My impression is that you must strive for a supervisor role or you are looked down upon. New processes just for the sake of having new processes. Layoffs were kept under wraps and no one knows who or how many. The is no room for advancement and work/life balance is terrible. Most of my co-workers are doing the work of 2-3 people.

Micro-managing, soul-crusing, sadistic managers. Not enough work to fill up the day and the work itself is tedious and boring. Like working for the DMV, or on an assembly line. Just tighten your widget (or update your PowerPoint slide) until the whistle blows. Cameras are everywhere, including outside the restroom. Everywhere you go is monitored, I wouldn't be surprised if they had keystroke loggers. Managers are more interested in clock watching and pouncing on people for leaving their desk than in doing actual work. Personal cell phones are not allowed, and managers will repremand people if they catch them using them. Internet usage is tightly monitored and controlled. There are procedures for every single facet of your job. Nothing can be done without consulting the procedures, reviewing them, writing a research paper about the process and getting it approved. Complete analysis paralysis at all times. Promotions are totally based on brown-nosing. Pay scale is far above title, so people who are there more than a couple of years become trapped and bitter. Turnover is very high, close to 20%+ in professional positions from what I saw, not counting the people who came and left within the first two weeks.
