Pros

For technical profiles, good as an "opening" company, give lot of training (but do not do anything to retain) Flexible work environment. If you know your way around you can just float and no one really notices

Cons

- Too entralized and looks at Corporate office for evertyhing and anything, - Its very difficult for non-italians to get recognition and career growth, - HR department is just glorified "personnel" management -

Pros

Great responsibility for offshore operations and quay-side mobilizations. Less technical role (no direct engineering performed), but more so, practical experience-driven when executing onsite.

Cons

Lots of reading and writing (Purchase Requests>Purchase Orders>Final contracts). Bureaucratic procurement (SAP and Word/Excel heavy) and poor interdepartmental follow-up: you have to do the follow-up when the assigned project inspector and expeditor (POSE) don't follow up on your PO. High workload.
