Business Outlook
Pros
Oil field services companies have deep pockets so you get company vehicle, good health and insurance benefits and some paid expenses.
Cons
The training program was not structured, basically you are an apprentice and there was no planned progression, no path. You move up if a different position opened and you had the skill for that position. This led to very high turn over, people quit almost every week but it didn't matter much to the company because it really is too big to fail. Overtime hours are great, an average week I worked 80hrs! So not much family time. After being certified in on certain jobs it was concluded that my mentors had to be retrained because they didn't know what they were doing.
