Pros

I gained my first experience within local company, leant to meet flash deadlines, I was hardworking, but managed my time wisely

Cons

Disorganized workload, conflict of interests, no company procedures, distractions during the work, total mess with documentations, local style of management despite the fact that company is oriented on foreign customers

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.
