      Great company, interesting work, frustrating bureaucracy and politics

      Subsea engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Excellent people who are willing to help, great team culture though poor collaboration across business units. Great trust in employees that allows personal flexibility when needed.

      Cons

      Can be highly political and bureaucratic. Consensus based and slow to make decisions. Lots of meaningless improvement initiatives that skirt around real issues of risk aversion and self interest during a down market. Europeans hold the power and some programs don’t translate well when applied to US culture. Can be very demanding but pay justifies the hours.

      Great compensation and work life balance

      Senior subsea engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The pay, benefits, 9/80 schedule, highly competent coworkers, work life balance, and fascinating technology to work with offshore.

      Cons

      Largely limited to New Orleans or Houston locations, huge company that is slow to make decisions and change, management doesn't communicate very well, performance rankings are more political and popularity contest oriented rather than business impact oriented, ups and downs of oil industry leads to numerous layoffs, IT infrastructure lags basic standards, data management/control is essentially non-existent.
