BOG’s development is an inspiration. Her dedication to opportunities, growth in the oil and gas industry, standing out amongst her peers, establishing a Pipe threading and Valve assembly plant, and still standing after 20 years, especially through the numerous economic downturns, is worth celebrating.
Many companies have come and gone, but BOG, “the great place to work,” is still standing.
I joined BOG with zero knowledge of the oil and gas industry, fresh from school as a client relations officer.
One of BOG’s core values is ‘people development’ and BOG does very well at it. This is so much so that the Executive Directors from time to time facilitate the learning programs themselves – – imparting knowledge, developing, training, and grooming staff to become the best.
The university of BOG will teach you on and off the job, give you tasks irrespective of your current knowledge and, allow you to exhibit your can-and- will do spirit, test you through performance appraisals. and reward outstanding performance. Working in BOG puts you in the right stead to work and perform exceptionally anywhere you find yourself.
I have grown from a Client Relations officer to an Assistant manager and was awarded the most innovative and BOG employee of the year in 2010. I have experienced the company’s good, the bad, and the ugly times, but BOG has always come out shining brighter through it all.
May the journey of corporate success continue in the coming years.
Thank you for making a difference in my life and giving me the opportunity to shine with you.
Happy 20th anniversary.
