Pros

Great company at the time. They put me through supervisor classes and first aid class. They seem to be be true to their name and always promised you the very best.

Cons

They laid me off in February 2016. Basically the end. Everything the management said was a huge lie............................... I worked my butt off and worked every hour they asked. I left on good conditions and was the last start up and commissioning member their besides my manager. It is unthinkable sometimes to think that a company can just toss you aside and treat you as a bag of trash, but ultimately all they have to do is forget about you and hire an illegal immigrant or hire someone local. It is truly a shame that company's like kbr can continue to get away with this. But as they always say, money is everything.

Pros

Company has strong standards and work procedures. Great history of experience.

Cons

Changed company culture since management changed in 2014. If you don't have charge code, you are no longer needed regardless you are seasoned experienced fellow or have zero experience. Lot of experience walked out leaving company way behind in technical knowhow. This is the biggest reason company is not performing against other big competitors. Time for leaders to wake up.
