Pros

Competitive initial offer/salary, decent benefits (401k up to 6.5% match when I worked there; a few different health insurance plans with varying deductibles - all PPO when I worked there; 7 or so paid holidays; PTO (sick and vacation combined) starts at 0 and accrues certain # of hours/week depending on tenure)

Cons

Your experience will depend entirely on your immediate manager. There is little "culture" to speak of at KBR, and little positive or productive communication/interaction between departments in my experience. Always seems like there are nearly as many Chiefs as there are Indians, and very few of the Chiefs are qualified for their positions or particularly adept at managing people.

Pros

Flex time within a pay month, flexible schedules, an outstanding benefits package including a 401k retirement plans with 100% match on 6% of pretax and Roth contribution elections, several investment options, personalized financial planning through fidelity, employee stock purchase program, student debt retirement savings match program, and HSA options; several health insurance options with a wide range of monthly premiums and available benefits, FSA, HSA, vision, dental (Delta Dental), tuition assistance, PTO, holidays, and much more.

Cons

No automatic/across the board annual cost of living pay adjustments, only 5.3 hours total of PTO (with milestone increases for incumbents) each pay period (no separate sick, personal, annual, vacation, etc.), only 9 paid holidays with one floating holiday, no official employee evaluations or measured expectations, many employment pros and cons are dependent on supervisor on the contract - not corporate.
