Pros

Decent basic salary, good bonus and stock option program, generous healthcare coverage. Parking and transportation paid by the company. Sexy place to start your career and after 2 years look for something better. The company have the advantage of the Europe energy crisis at this moment

Cons

There is not flexibility at all for employees, no WFH or hybrid work policies. That is a discretion of your managers and that is a lie. It is expected for you to be 100% of the time at your desk. If you have personal issues to solve you have to use a day of your vacation, but it is expected that you answer emails and attend online meetings during you vacation time. They talk about safety but it is expected you should up to work after 3 or 4 hour drive, or do a 3 hour round trip (each way) the same day, you must show to work the day after a long haul job related flight and jet lag, not considering accidents can happen. There isn’t a Journey Management policy in place. They do not listen to the voice of the employee, and they do not consider this type of feedback. There is not development opportunities for employees and to get a promotion you have to be member of the CKC, Cool Kids Club. Leadership and the new HR administration are focused on numbers, they do not understand that it is about people, about creating a sustaining a culture. The company is starting to lose good people, that is not healthy turn over, that is a loss There is not trust

Pros

Great workplace culture. The team is always striving for excellence. Some sites offer 4 day / 10 hour schedules, which is a plus.

Cons

No cons to speak of.

Pros

Cheniere is solid and has a stable future ahead. Lots of new business opportunities as industry leaders. Total benefits package is fairly generous. Employees are very nice, helpful, and willing to collaborate. Working here daily is very stable; it’s easy to get lost in your work (which is good for me). Oh also! Another wonderful perk - Cheniere pays for parking, or they pay for your bus card (underrated perk for sure as it is not standard).

Cons

No willingness to switch to a hybrid remote schedule, despite the company’s higher attrition rates for this very reason. Leadership likes to mask this as “Well we like seeing your faces and feeling like a team here, but we are ‘flexible’ to let you work from home as needed.” - this is not the case. Actions speak louder than words, and behind the scenes it is clear that leadership and management actively discourage any type of WFH despite their “flexibility” claim. Cheniere is bleeding employees because of this. Former employees are jumping ship to go work for competitors with actually flexible work schedules and higher pay; filling job positions is difficult due to the rigid in-office requirement; and current employees are begging for some kind of hybrid schedule. Yet leadership is unyielding to the changing industry standards, and they compensate this rigidity by allowing employees to wear jeans daily and regurgitating the same talking points back to their loyal but desperate workforce - “Attrition rate is not as high as you think. We actually have been filling positions quickly. Cheniere is a family, and we like seeing your faces. WFH is an option on an as-needed basis.” The company’s unwillingness to adapt will cost them a lot of talent - good talent at that. Their pride in their “small yet mighty” workforce will lead to an overworked, undervalued, burnt out mess of a “family.” That, coupled with a healthy dose of “Good Ol Boy” mentality, aversion to internal hiring, little opportunity to promote, micromanagement, and company kool-aid fueled delusion about the state of their workforce, leads me to not recommend this company if you value your work/life balance or advancing your career.
