Pros

Like all companies, you have the opportunity to work with some fabulous people

Cons

WorleyParsons is a boys club and bad behaviour is regularly rewarded. The company lacks vision, leadership and discipline - especially in the Perth office. It sells itself as a global company, but this is not true. It is a company that has many offices in different countries around the world. Each office operates like a silo within a company, and a silo within a location. Communication within the Perth location is poor. The company’s systems are cumbersome and complex, and they offer little, or no training, especially if you are a non-billable employee. The employee surveys are consistently negative and yet little is done to address the issues raised by staff. There are many legacy staff (men) who the company refuses to performance manage. Instead, they move them ‘sideways’ and leave them on inappropriate salaries. If you have any level of 'care' factor, i.e. you care about small providers or contractors being paid in a timely manner, then don't work for this company, because their incompetence will drive you insane. Lastly, if your role involves travel, think very carefully before joining this company. All international travel is ‘Premium Economy' and believe me, it’s a long way from Perth to Houston flying PE.

Pros

Wonderful people to work with and many interesting projects

Cons

Has become a body hire shop. No billable work then don't bother coming in. Currently on life support with many people working very short weeks. Fortunately the corporate management team is still intact
