      Too much fat at the top

      Software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Above average pay in Houston and in the industry

      Cons

      - If you are in IT, pay is below average comparing to tech companies of the same size - Too much fat at the top in the IT org: senior management and leadership are clueless and mostly non-technical. Decision making from the leadership is poor and often for shows and power grabbing, not for the good will of the company. - Morality is extremely low. Regular developers suffer the most from bad leadership.

      Horrible place to work

      Project manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Initially the pay may seem very attractive, however, you quickly realized that it is not worth it.

      Cons

      - hypocritical in caring and promoting diversity (prejudice against certain group of people) - old buys club and a subjective ranking system where the most qualified people doesn't get the promotion -nobody wants to do the work, there is a 10 managers to 10 people ratio -arrogance, yet the company is doing really bad -the worst management I have ever seen in a company -they continue to promote people not meant to be in management / leadership -they do not care for technical capability as long as you know how to present in a meeting, they believe that you are Einstein

      Company talks about teamwork and value of employees but only cares about money

      Senior it risk advisor
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Opportunity to work on large projects with people from all over the world. Travel often allows stays in 4 star hotels and generous food allowance. Any corporate department that you can imagine that any large company and sometimes a person can move into that department if your manager supports you. Varied assignments during your career. The company has the potential to make a lot of money as the price of oil rises and some of that money may return to employees in higher raises and increased training opportunities.

      Cons

      Jobs are being cut all over Europe, Canada, Singapore and the USA to move jobs to locations where costs are cheaper. People being hired in many of these locations do not have the same dedication to the company and realize that they make less so when you get a supervisor or manager from one of these countries when you work in the USA expect resentment. The management in the USA talked for years that people were hired for a career from college to retirement but they have pushed people out by increasing poor performers to as high as 10% in some years to avoid paying layoff packages. The company forced many people to retire. The company cares about employees only if they are cheap to pay. Early in a person's career they are identified to be a top performer and after that time you can fall from being a top performer but it is almost impossible to get into the top rankings each year once the company has decided your career level in your first few years at the company.
