Can offer big salaries, but only in time of high oil price. No due diligence performed, they purchase companies just to spend capex and fire staff to protect senior managements opex.
Cons
Departments do not communicate, so often 12 people are working on the same thing. Agendas matter more then the correct solution

Appreciated working with smart, driven colleagues; they were truly experts in their fields. The rigorous schedules we were on were strictly maintained, which usually made for a very organized structure and workload.
Cons
Leadership went through many changes and acquisitions while I was there. The mission seemed to keep changing, and it wasn't easy to maintain consistency in our reports with such leadership changes.
Market analysts were often pulled onto consulting projects but were not paid as consultants. This is what pushed me to leave.
