Pros

While we were working they had plenty of overtime, no limit to work money was good, it should be one of the reason of several incidents

Cons

If you aren't Italian you are out of the circle, no high positions for you, they have lot of experience but they brought to Canada the worse management team their policies are obsolete their quality program is a joke their understanding of the Canadians standard is zero and their opportunities to grow below zero... They want to control and micromanagement everything again is a multicultural company just in papers... Because they only trust in their Italians colleges even they know they are wrong... I will never work with this company again and I will no refer anybody to this company ask to all my fellows coworkers that worked with me at husky sunrise project it should a very powerful reason: they just get fire form CNRL and Husky almost at the same time

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.
