Pros

National Oilwell Varco has always fostered a good balance of work and family. The company is consistently moving forward, and will be a force to be reckoned with in this industry for many years to come.

Cons

National Oilwell Varco seems to be a market follower on wages, but i dont have this info accross the board, so it may just be in my segment.

Pros

Management @ Corporate is very relaxed, they offer plenty of training, and are big in giving back to the community. CEO is very down to earth, and makes great business decisions, it's a shame he left the company.

Cons

Pay is decent, haven't been here long enough to get a detailed perspective. Wish there was more room to grow here.
