      Pros

      After recently being acquired from Honeywell HTSI, Managers and supervisors haven't changed after acquisition. Although rebidding will happen in 2018 the key people in management have been working in the company for the last 24 years have stayed in place. Rebidding for contract in 2018 with the Government.

      Cons

      The key people in management have been working in the company for the last 24 years have stayed in place. Salaries don't really compete withe the open market in the supervisory and management positions. Hiring targets prior military or retired military preferably so that lower the market salaries supplement retirement paychecks.

      Pros

      Well respected in the EPCM space, and been around for many years. While anything related to gas and oil has it's cycles, they do try to augment their backlog with government services work.

      Cons

      I worked in IT, and KBR has decided to outsource most of it's development work, which has been a failure for almost 3 years, but IT management fails to recognize this. They are too focused on the cost of everything, without regards for the benefits. But they also don't really see the cost of rework as a result of the outsourcing. Don't get me wrong, cost is an important factor, but it shouldn't be the only factor.
