WorleyParsons Employer Reviews

I run reports first thing in the morning and check emails; make sure no one needs a conference call created or meeting created; everyday i make sure no expenses need to be delivered to our Bellaire building that i take on Thursdays; check with project managers to see if they need reformatting done or if they need any administrative assistance in general.
I – more... have learned a lot of new project controls work, such as running cost and revenue reports for multiple projects, aging reports, how to add tasks and fund new upcoming projects.
Co-workers are great to work with, but when looking for managers, they need to find more experienced individuals, having to work under someone who is just now learning their roles is no fun.
The most enjoyable part of the job is getting to know co-workers and spending a little bit of time talking with everyone and seeing how they like working here and if they are having any issues or concerns. – less

Always busy on a daily assignments, learned field engineering jobs while in our field office in KSA, nice people to work with and a very nice gentleman Division Manager of Structural dept..

This company operates a don't employ list which is global, so don't go annoying any of your colleagues or management as you could land up on it and because they are linked with web based recruitment it also goes to companies that use the same recruitment search.

Good place to work. My boss is very nice and accomodating. We care about one another in my group

I log onto my computer, review emails, and look over work I need to start for that day. Management is usually available via communicator but is usually visibly non-existent. There isn't much direction therefore you need to be in control and able to figure out things on my own. Engineers distribute the work to me and are usually available for questions.
The – more... most difficult part of my day is being in one place. Although I love my job, sitting down for long periods can be very tiresome.
What i enjoy mostly about my day is communicating with my co-workers. We all bond together like a family and help another when we know something they don't. Its very helpful being able to mesh ideas among a few people to come up with the best solution. It also helps having fellow CAD Techs in case theres a command we don't know. I've learned quite a bit more over the last two years because everybody has different ways of doing things. – less

Company standards are at a high level, with everyone contributing to get the job done. The opportunity to work with various software applications.

One of the good companies to work for in regard to learning , opportunities , big corporate culture & expanding your skills.

Busy attending meetings and conducting training classes.
What processes are in evolved with the project we are working or bidding on.
Management is committed to HSE and providing the client with the best results.
Great to work with.
Trying to keep up with the changes in all the plans and procedures.
Training the employees and working with the HSE Steering – more... Committee. – less

One of my worst emplyment experiences was working in the Bellaire office.

Professionally speaking, WorleyParsons is a great place to grow with a growing company. If one is in a support role, a support role is all one will ever have. The supervisors tend to favor a few (which, I guess is normal in most companies) and does not stand behind their employees. The Human Resources department has a lot to be desired as they are unorganized – more... and are too busy covering their tracks as opposed to employee friendly.

WorleyParsons has great benefits and from a corporate view does try to offer their employees an enjoyable work environment (i.e., flex hours, 4-10 work schedule). From a local viewpoint, they are still stuck in the "80s - we've always done it like this" mentality. – less

Good people mostly, great benefits, not so great management. Dept heads don't care about you.

Norlam day is friendly
New information and development
Good co-workers

Working at WorleyParsons has increased my knowledge in the field of Procurement. Teamwork is key to the company's success, and I continue to learn new material as I continue to work at this company.

If management knows your capabilities then everything (every project) gets thrown in your lap no matter what. Very stressful. No guidance for policies or procedures. No manual for technical specifications.

Project engineers and some managers hired directly out of school. Fractured and conflicting lines of management.

Twice as many engineers as needed, lots of deadwood, had a proceedure for everything except getting it out the door.

Typical days are minimum 10 hours and range in workload according to project demands. I learned more in the first 5 months than I thought possible thanks to a fantastic project team and project leaders. Co-workers are usually very helpful and cohesive.

I would highly recomend this company to anyone searching for employment in this related field. Very nice atmosphere to work in.

I worked at WP as HR coordinator and recruiter, it was very interesting project, but project based work is not so good, it will be over some day...

A typical day for me would be to come in and check emails for new invoices, updates or important information from vendors or inter-company personnel. Review invoices and check for accuracy, payment detail and currency type. Scan invoices and upload images. Key invoices in Oracle and attach images for the designated persons to approve for payment. The – more... challenging part of my job is "chasing coding" which means to contact project managers for the correct coding so that invoices can be keyed for payment. I enjoy the people that I work with, and I love the work load because there is never boredom or down time. – less
