      HR Generalist at KBR

      Pros

      KBR is a large corporation. If you want to work overseas, it's a good place to get there. The benefits are okay.

      Cons

      Because it is a large company, it is easy to get lost in the shuffle. You have to fight for promotions and recognition for a job well done. The yearly increases in pay are pitiful and can be considered a personal insult if you have worked hard all year. The management has a hands-off approach and they don't seem to care at all. The Leadership is nil. Why do they bother at all? They don't lead. They sit in their gilded cages and sing the songs that the Government wants to hear.

      Trying to conform

      Pros

      Job security, some people, the young engineering group development.

      Cons

      Upper management is disconnected (they do not understand the industry) and because of the good old boy and girl network, we are moving back in time and not progressing into the future.

      Best job site ever

      Pros

      Good people doing important work for both the government and the country. It is critical that we have companies this large to handle big missions.

      Cons

      It is very easy to get lost in their still of project management - where your employment is tied to a project, not the company as a whole - so when the project (or task) is over than folks are scrambling for work (as it should be when the money stops flowing in to the company)
