Pros

Good for young engineers with little or no experience in oil industry. Lots of exposure early on, but this is where it ends.

Cons

No career prospects in long run, if your not Italian or British (in UK office). Chaotic organisation not for everyone, but for most flexible and resourceful people. Poor managers, not interested in development of young engineers. HR very poor. Making a lot of simple mistakes, slow, unresponsive, and very unprofessional.

Pros

When I joined this company, it was hitting all the right notes with numerous projects and a great grooming place for budding engineers. #1- great for learners #2- best place in Chennai for variety of O&G projects #3- good canteen food #4- great for HR people since they can jump levels every year #5-People will be NOT be laid off ( incompetents too)

Cons

Lots: #1- Not good if you seek professional treatment #2- Loyalty means no hike in salary where as new entrants can easily bargain and get what they want #3- HR policy... actually the lack of it. HR maintain a disconnect between core engineering disciplines and themselves constantly. Most HR guys are old employees and not qualified for the right jobs. #4- Notice period of 3 months #5- discipline heads are chosen to suit management's whims and not technical competence.
