Thread regarding Chicago Bridge & Iron layoffs

CB&I is no longer an engineering company

CB&I is not an engineering company. Matter of fact, they are a disgrace to engineering. They are a purchasing and construction company. They used to be an engineering company.

Instead of engineers running the show, project managers run over engineering due to the fact that they cannot schedule a job.

They cannot sell a job without cutting schedule and hours. Then they beat engineering up to produce junk and documents.

They will hire anyone as an engineer, all you have to do is be able to fill out forms. They let the vendors do the engineering. Look at the quality of their work, that says it all.

All true, @QvUDnxQ-3khf. It's really sad what we've become, from once amazing company.

They damn sure aren't a fabrication company either. What does that leave for them, after they sell tech?

I feel sorry for their customers, they have no idea what they are getting into. CB&I has created a hostile, stressful environment for their employees. Not a good environment to be in.

I second what is said. Schedulers, bean counters and project managers (under pressure by upper management) has destroyed CB&I. There is no way I would hire them or work for them again! There is more to life than just money. You need to be held accountable for your actions.
