RecommendsNeutral OutlookApproves of CEOI worked at CGG full-time (More than 3 years)
Pros
Smart and passionate people, good safety culture, company cares about its employees. When times are good it works like well oiled machine.
Cons
Severely affected by oil and gas cycles, needs to be leaner
Advice to Management
More focus on areas of strength and cut excess in less competitive areas, both geographically and technologically. And no more buying other companies!
