Reports from the public and accounts from informed sources indicate the depth of a crisis in the National Drilling Company; where preferential and opaque appointments have replaced specialized criteria.
Managers' Private Playground
In this network of corruption, names such as Mohammad Hossein Jazayeri, Abdolrahman Nasaj, Reza Soltani, and Nasser Molaei stand out. Jazayeri, the head of training and human resources development, is particularly in the spotlight. It is reported that he has provided an organizational vehicle to his wife, who works in one of the company's departments.
It seems that the training department has turned into a private playground for some managers to exert influence in recent years. Meanwhile, Hanan Shahroodi, with her connections in the parliament, introduces herself as the "company's representative in the parliament," a position that has never been officially defined.
Employees of the company are concerned that the continuation of this trend will diminish the position of expertise and competence within the company and that career advancement will become dependent on informal relationships.
