Pros

World class people at the district level, tons of support for any task encountered. Very collaborative environment on district levels. The absolute best structured training in the oilfield. Stock awards are great once they start vesting every qtr Majority of folks are workaholics Good benefits, good amount of vacation days

Cons

Same as any multinational corporate machine, no real surprise...politics, things take time to get done etc A surprisingly large amount of nepotism for a publicly traded company Anything related to Northbelt, “Hi, we’re from Northbelt and here to help”. Obnoxiously large amount of middle and upper management. I never understood why it was necessary to have so many ops mgmt layers for an organization that was so process driven. Terrible HR dept in general, getting someone hired was embarrassing. Any function that involved HR was slow, painful and too costly.
