Pros

Great projects to work on at NASA. Benefits are okay.

Cons

It is hard to get a raise on the government contract side. I should have also made senior engineer and all I got was an email saying thank you for your continued service with the company. You don’t get bonuses like other KBR engineers do when you work on the government contract side. Sometimes really hard to take time off.

Pros

Good people, great culture in Sydney. Good management, caring culture.

American company controlled by Trump’s hatred. All diversity and inclusion programs cut. Some teams treated like slaves.

We're glad to hear that you've had a positive experience in our Sydney office. Like many companies in the U.S. some of KBR's programs were impacted in the wake of U.S. executive orders, but we've taken this opportunity to accelerate our focus on total inclusion. You can learn more about our All In program at KBR.com.
