Pros

Most of the time I worked there, it went ok, not necessarily good, but ok. When I retired a few years back, my opinion was that it was starting to come apart at the seams.

Cons

Poor upper management in Denver--out of touch with the real oil and gas fields. The field supervisors and hourly that knew right from wrong were being pressured into doing foolish things, and lots of them were leaving. When I was working, DCP seemed to always put money where it didn't need to go. They didn't put it back where the profits were being made. In the last few years, some of which I was still working, their "fix" was to have layoffs. It might have gotten rid of some poor performers, but it overloaded who was left, and Denver acted clueless to it. I often wondered what percentage of upper management could pass a drug test. Maybe that's why it seemed that DCP practically stopped doing drug tests by 2015. During some of my latter years at DCP, even consultants that DCP had hired to go out to the fields, seemed to wonder what Denver management was thinking.
