Pros

There are a few good people left after countless layoffs. Flex schedule (half-day Fridays, though most still work full day); Option to telecommute one day a week. Casual dress code M-F Nothing positive about content of work or company as a whole...

Cons

Toxic environment, no opportunities (drilling is not doing well so that’s not likely to change), poor leadership, lack of communication, hierarchical chain of command, low morale, not strategic in decision making, won’t progress if not willing to work 24/7....stay far away if looking to join. Not a good place to work. The next 12-18 months will continue to be hard with merger and the drilling industry being down so recommend looking elsewhere. Maybe things will change, but unlikely....

Pros

No pros for this company

Cons

1980's Peoplesoft operating system. System is not user friendly. Terrible work environment and bullying culture. People are afraid to speak out b/c company is Ensco strong. Your voice will never be heard. Payroll can't pay the lower level works correctly. pay slips are a joke as you don't see a complete pay breakdown of deductions or overtime hours worked. Too busy paying out bonuses to VP's and RM's as the company has sunk.
