Pros

Located in downtown Houston. They pay for parking for employees.

Cons

1. No career growth - HR has been working on this for 2 years. Vertical/horizontal growth is not possible . 2. No flexibility in work schduled. Depends on your manager and is approved under very strict circumstances. 3. No consistency in corporate standards as it varies wildly between departments. 4. Corporate culture is rife with politics and un substantiated information. 6. 0 transperancy between employees and management. Communication needs a huge overhaul. 7. Lack of accountability and trust within groups, between groups and in management is a common topic of concern among most employees. 8. Company has lost a lot of talent due to the reasons above and the HR is out of touch with this reality.

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.
