Pros

Management is good but mostly Italians. They talk in the Italian language even in the meeting. I had a good experience working for Saipem Canada and lots of opportunity to success throughout my four years of work there.

Cons

Management is not transparent to local employees. Sometimes local employee feels they are not part of the management.

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.
