Pros
Fluor is a great place to work, I have worked for other large corporations where upper management's incompetent and ineffective behavior is tolerated or rewarded but technical staff is crucified if they have been unable to read minds or forecast the future. Fluor management accepts that you can only make decisions using the information you have. At Fluor you are expected to work hard, do your best and learn from your and others mistakes, but there are no career damaging repercussions when things don't t always go perfectly as planned. In short they accept that we are all human.
Cons
Even if you approach your manager they may not provide guidance on career path, even if you share your interests and strengths. There seems no desire to develop long term career growth. For us 25+ year ppl who have been learning new technology since we worked with punch cards in the university in the 70's, many need to keep learning and growing and remaining a critical contributor to their organization. For the managers w/ 25+ years at Fluor there is a tendency to prefer to avoid creating any waves leaving competent staff in their positions.
