Pros

It's oil. As long as you work harder than 70% of everyone else, you won't get laid off. Plenty of overtime during the good times, 30 hrs a week during the bad.

Cons

The pay is terrible. Anytime oil futures look bleak, which is all the time, is a good excuse not to give you a raise. Only thing that makes it worth it is the overtime. But when it slumps, you pay is cut into roughly 40% of your usual 65hrs a week.

Pros

Very work/life balance friendly. Very strong benefits package.

Cons

Very Siloed. NOV is the result of over 100 acquisitions and the fractured condition of systems and procedures is evident. Leadership is working on it.
