Pros

SAIPEM has mastered work-life balance like no other! Their 5-day workweek with 9-hour days is a revelation. Ample time for tasks and life. Plus, remote work options are a game-changer. Productivity meets comfort seamlessly. Kudos to a company that truly cares! ⚖️🏡 #WorkLifeBlis

Cons

The average market salary leaves room for improvement, impacting overall compensation satisfaction. Moreover, the irregular appraisal schedule deviates from industry norms, causing uncertainty. Strengthening management's vision to align with world-class standards would propel SAIPEM to even greater heights. Despite these aspects, SAIPEM remains dedicated to creating a positive work-life atmosphere.

Pros

Great responsibility for offshore operations and quay-side mobilizations. Less technical role (no direct engineering performed), but more so, practical experience-driven when executing onsite.

Cons

Lots of reading and writing (Purchase Requests>Purchase Orders>Final contracts). Bureaucratic procurement (SAP and Word/Excel heavy) and poor interdepartmental follow-up: you have to do the follow-up when the assigned project inspector and expeditor (POSE) don't follow up on your PO. High workload.
