Pros
Wonderful company to work for when the oil and gas industry is doing well. Amazing opportunities to advance in the company and international travel. Excellent educational opportunities.
Cons
The company needs to learn to manage their money better. When the oil and gas industry is good, the perks are amazing. However, they do not plan for when the industry goes down resulting in lay offs and significant budget crunching/panic. During this time, they are hiring new grads to take the place of tenured employees so that the teachers in their schools will have something to do. They will hire these new guys and pay them peanuts, spend thousands of dollars training them, pay them really well when things are good, then lay them off when the industry goes down. It's a vicious cycle and doesn't really make sense. Also, they are so worried about winning "the best place for women to work" award and priding themselves on diversity, that they let that cloud their best judgement. If you are a white male, even if you are more qualified and have worked at the company longer, you are the first to go. Period.
