    Former Employee, more than 10 years

    Times are changing

    Feb 25, 2021 - Project Manager in Houston, TX
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    The best people in the industry. Offers a great work environment. Good technology packages and work processes. Strong legacy and name recognition leading to repeat business.

    Cons

    Management appears quick to jump on the latest “buzz” words and make short term decisions accordingly tending to forget the core businesses that have made KBR such a strong player in the Energy, Oil & Gas and Government Services industries. Constant reorganization of the business groups.

    Very professional & great atmosphere to work

    Mar 9, 2021 - Reliability Engineer in Leatherhead, England
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    For the start the salary offered by KBR is very competitive and the company offers a lot of opportunities for the graduate engineers. The work environment is also great.

    Cons

    I can not find anything negative as I have had experience with may companies within the Oil and GAs industry and KBR is one of the best.

    Great place but no security

    May 6, 2021 - Associate Technical Professional in London, England
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    The culture is lovely and respectful. Easy to work with the people. Left to do your own work. Lots of social events and training for graduates. Great starting salary for graduate at 30k. Goes up every year

    Cons

    Sometimes not given any work and you’re left with nothing to do. No job security if you’re in the gas and oil industry as soon as prices drop you’re out as projects stop
