Pros

I've made great friends here, and I enjoy being on the 9/80 schedule.

Cons

The benefits are mediocre (and are periodically being cut), and the company has been laying off many employees. Morale is low, and the workload for everyone has increased exponentially.

Pros

Heritage Process License company (MW Kellog Days). Had their market niche that worked well with both rising and falling energy markets... good mix of chem / refining / oil-gas production / LNG process licenses.

Cons

MW Kellog became KBR... but really became Brown Root construction co take-over of Process License Engineering Company. Construction usually has lion's share of project budgets, so B&R managmet gutted the C-level of former MW Kellog. This disaster resulted in Halliburton spinning them off. No help, as damage was already done. Now with energy at rock bottom, they dont have any market differentiator.
