Pros

I gained good experience and senior employees are super helpful. The salary and compensation were awesome. The compa ny is very well managed and operated.

Cons

The company office in Calgary is new, thus they do not have as many projects. They start laying off people as soon as the projects are completed.

Pros

Great responsibility for offshore operations and quay-side mobilizations. Less technical role (no direct engineering performed), but more so, practical experience-driven when executing onsite.

Cons

Lots of reading and writing (Purchase Requests>Purchase Orders>Final contracts). Bureaucratic procurement (SAP and Word/Excel heavy) and poor interdepartmental follow-up: you have to do the follow-up when the assigned project inspector and expeditor (POSE) don't follow up on your PO. High workload.
