Pros

There are still some great project managers and engineers here trying hard to make the business work and serve our customers

Cons

The rapid growth of the company has allowed it to be overrun by accountants and 'People' advisors who are not customer-facing and don't understand our business or our customers' businesses, but who nevertheless have captured the ear of management, who have never been more remote and disengaged from the project teams, who are overwhelmed by the suffocating burden of bureaucracy imposed on every aspect of trying to do your job. The task of repair is beyond the capability of current senior management. I think the best thing would be for an aquirer to put a broom through the top three layers of management and start again.

Pros

I am sorry but i cant think of anything

Cons

HR continue to lie with you on everything. Since Worley took over Jacobs ECR business portion, there hasnt been a single positive thing that we have seen doing for its employees. No salary increase since last 4 years. Promotion without any increase Company wants you to use your mobile phone, your own internet and sometimes buy stuff from your own pocket. They have let go of all IT people here in Houston area and every time if you have issues with the computer you call from ur personal phone to some IT contractor in south Africa to fix your computer issues. Every other year, some brilliant minds in management come up with new software and make the project teams to use it regardless of whether it is making sense or not. We used to work with blue beam which was a brilliant software for marking up the engineering drawings but now we are told company is no longer to use the BB cause its expensive. They have some of the worst doc management systems that they use like Aconex which is useless. Company thinks that Aconex is a replacement of Bluebeam which is not true.
