Valaris

Since the merger we have been in a steady decline in almost every respect. Payroll has been unable to pay people on time or correctly. This has been going on for months. During the same time period the number of incidents offshore has dramatically increased. None of the new computer systems work correctly and we receive little support from the office. The workload offshore has doubled while support has been minimal. Many experienced, long term employees have been resigning. Most front line supervisors are looking for new employment. 

Due to the number of resignations Valaris is probably a good place to get your foot in the door.

Experience is valued much more than actual production. I'm currently paid a third of what one coworker makes even though we have nearly identical titles and half of what another makes. The oil industry is dying slowly and they're still paying the unskilled and under-educated like oil is $100+ a barrel. This company is destined for bankruptcy.

Although I actually enjoyed my job responsibilities at Valaris, the management styles and culture were very undesirable.  I acquired skills in certain areas that I didn't previously have (e.g. Guarantor Financial Statement preparation).

Don't expect to move up here. Clicks are real, and if you ain't a buddy, you will get looked over. Absolutely nothing good to say about Valaris. Unfair practices. Hostile work environment.

You try to move up on your rig and you'll just get looked over for someone (from a different rig) that has no experience on your rig. There are people who have been in this same position for 5+ years that have been ready to move up that get passed up by someone who has no idea how things work on the rig. 

I saw management indulge in favoritism. They changed policies all the time to fit the current situation. There was no consistency with policy. There are good people that work there. Just not in management 

Good pay and benefits, Training and career advancement opportunities for those that want it.
Long hours for those in the field. The industry as a whole can result in turnover. Nothing the company can do about that.

No support, unethical company. Laying off alot of people, believe they are going into bankruptcy. I do not recommend this company. No acknowledgement of work done. Sweat factory feeking.

Soon as I get to work I'm energetic and focused.Alert and happy to learn something new to add to all the amazing things I know already.l look forward to doing all the right things that are needed to make things at the job run on one accord..

Not a good to place to work.  The culture since the merger has changed and they have lost sight of the employees.  Alot of stress put on the employees and don't see to be looking to hire more people.
