      Good company overall, but not a leader in infrastructure and environment

      Pros

      Salaries are actually pretty good. Company promotes flex hours, every second friday off, and work-life balance. Nice work environment, everyone is friendly. The company works on primarily big projects (could be a negative as well). Opportunity to travel... I transferred cities for a year with no issues.

      Cons

      Typical big company procedures, paperwork and hoops to jump through. I find the knowledge sharing between senior and junior staff to be lacking. Not many internal technical seminars. Worley doesn't seem to value technical expertise as much as other companies. More focused on getting and completing work, rather than going the extra mile or winning one-off projects.

      Lessons in Corporate Implosion 101

      Pros

      Started working with great people, good care and attention for employees, lots of opportunity to grow professionally, good level of training in some areas, plenty of opportunity for mobility locally and internationally.

      Cons

      A lot of the great people have gone or are going, perhaps too much care and attention of employees - few cakes, perhaps more billable hours, people. Training across business lines is almost entirely non-existent. Not necessarily "opportunity for mobility", more like a NECESSITY for mobility - the work load can be extremely up & down.

      Excellent career growth and field experience

      Pros

      Working in contaminated sites, you get to experience a lot of field work and travel lots throughout Western Canada (travel can be nationally and internationally as well). The people you work with in the field make sure to help you to understand the concepts of what you are doing and WHY you are doing them. I work as a site superviosr, so i strive to make sure i continue that trend as well. In the office, senior management works to help you reach your goals for the year and meets with you periodically to make sure you are meeting goals or helping to reach those goals. In terms of reporting, they work with you to help develop your writing skills and understanding the processes. There is also some room for advancement within the company, as long as you specifiy what it is you are looking for, although sometimes it may be a little difficult to advance. As a new graduate, there are groups to help you develop and meet other people within worleyparsons in social and volunteering events. There are trips that people can go on together and many training events as well. This really isn't a place where you just go to work and then go home, you can play hockey with co-workers, go for after work beers, go to networking evets, etc. Overall, the management team does work with you and helps you to meet your goals and aspirations with the company. However, each individual is in the end responsible for what they want in a career so you have to make sure to ask for what you want.....if its practical, you and your manager can make it happen

      Cons

      In the field there are very long hours ranging anywhere from 10 hours to 16+ hours (which includes hotel stuff). You have to be gone from home lots, so you miss out on some things; however, the experiences you get from field work are great. In my position, it seems very difficult to advance my career further than a site supervisor or it will otherwise take some time before that happens mainly due to the nature of the business and limited need for many project managers. However, there are opportunites for international and national rotations and transfers, should that be something someone is interested in.
