    A good company who look after their workforce

    Jun 29, 2016 - Process Engineer in Farnborough, Hampshire, South East England, England
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Fluor have a 9 day fortnight (every other Friday off) which promotes excellent work/life balance. Pay is every 4 weeks (rather than once a month). Worldwide opportunities within the company.

    Cons

    A large company that deals with projects; so luck and timing play a large part of what opportunities and work you'll be involved with. Can lead to feeling a little stagnant at times. The design opportunities are a little limited due to most things being sub-contracted out or given to a vendor.

    Good/Bad/Ugly

    Jun 19, 2015 -  in Greenville, SC
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Compensation overall was average. Opportunities existed abroad, if one knew the correct people to contact.

    Cons

    I feel promotions and filling of positions within were not fair. Many educated, knowledgeable people were overlooked and feel between the cracks. I also felt there was no benefit to gaining a formal education at moments when up against others that were in the Good Ol' Boy network; very frustrating. Posted jobs were not matched with employees by HR, as should be. Senior management picked whom they wanted. I feel half the jobs posted on-line were a waste to apply for, knowing the positions were likely already filled by someone's buddy or relative. Work/life balance was difficult with a family for those that weren't in the home offices.
