Pros

Lots of professional opportunities within the company, great networking/social gatherings, lunch and learns, etc. Nice work environment. Good work/lift balance. 9/80s is a big bonus.

Cons

You are one of many. Easy to get lost in the system, if you allow it.

Pros

Good place for a chance to work on large and interesting projects with some talented people. People are encouraged to get involved in their work.

Cons

Currently running a lean staff putting time pressures on employees. Executive changes leave a degree of uncertainty.

Pros

Ethical with career mobility options, though KBR does suffer from the "Iraq-Afghanistan" corruption stigma which is not warranted. It will take some time to reverse the reputation but be assured KBR is an excellent company who strives to do the right thing. They do have good people overall with a long history of work well performed.

Cons

The contract workers can sometimes be a bit rough and street savvy with politicking, survival mode.
