Pros

It will teach you new language weather you want to learn or not. It will be Italian.

Cons

People might think I am biased but to be honest, I am kind of person who always tries to find way out of situation and most the time, I am very successful. This is the first company I have come across who likes to sit on problem rather then solving it and improve the methods of working for better tomorrow. Opportunity to climb the ladder for non Italian is null.

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.
