Pros

Friendly relaxed atmosphere. Real sense of teamwork in the Department. High respect for our boss. Quite a high workload. All day to day work conducted in English (apart from lunchtime conversations and coffee time chats). I would work there again given the chance

Cons

Reviewing Vendor Documentation and the production of Engineering Comments Sheets (ECSs) to ensure Vendor Documentation complies with Contract Requirements sometimes was sometimes a little tedious.

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.
