BP Employee Reviews for Project Leader

What do you like about working at BP?

"The team spirit, the breadth and challenge of the projects, the empowerment given to people and the professional atmosphere in, general."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Be specific with your responses, point out simlar projects that you've managed or designed, SMILE, and work well with both the office and plant people, when you get the job."

What don't you like about working at BP?

"One or two abrasive personalities (you find them everywhere). I also felt that operations was not given the substantial opportunity to contribute during the scoping of the project."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"The one point is that they should hire an experienced project estimator so there is a consstency to the budgets. This should result in a more predictable cost control for projects and schedules. The Project Lead can still have control of the overall project execution via reviews and close coordination of daily activities."
