Pros

BKV was in the right place at the right time. Deep pockets from Thai back company Aggressive spending at the right time - hopefully. Quiet office.

Cons

The CEO is from an ISP company and has no experience with the E&P industry, and it shows. No one is sure how he got the job. There seems to be no vision except to spend monstrous amounts of G&A to make up for poor decisions. Recent expansions to "The Cloud" slowed everything down and caused tremendous confusion. The CEO is combative if you question his poor decisions. He has no Oil/Gas background.

Pros

Wonderful people most of whom were legacy Devon employees. Safety commitment seems legitimate. Office culture among employees is cooperative not cutthroat.

Cons

Workload is consistently at 120% of capacity keeping people in a constant low level stress. Employees are expected to perform like “Olympic athletes” but even with bonus structure compensation is lower than industry average. Poor work/life balance. It can be difficult to utilize pto without falling further behind. Lack of admin and tech support. High turnover/burnout.
