Folks,I did one year in Kandahar,Afghanistan and 5 months in Taji,Iraq for this org.Anything less than a supervisory position is below your professional skill.Most new applicants will be washrats,get ready to kiss the ass of some dummy that the political management system likes.Experience is not necessary within KBR.Promotion is done by cronyism.A mob of foremen and Supervisors rule ruthlessly.Also get ready for 12 hour seven days a week of nickpicky rules and only two penalties,3 days off without pay for the slightest infraction or TERMINATION.I had no problems for I know how to put up with dimwits and didn't speed,5-10mph anywhere troops are and maniacal enforcement.Also No backing in without a "ground guide" and combat parking is required.
Good Luck!
