      Overworked & Underpaid

      Credit analyst
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good health benefits, 401k, health incentives. Working hybrid is great. Great company to train at and then move around to better opportunities.

      Cons

      Over worked, understaffed. You are practically working with old timers that have been with the company 5, 10, 20 years and you walk in with more experience than them as a new hire. You to have to train them and show them how to do their job, is beyond ridiculous! Zero training or procedures in every department. People with zero management skills are promoted to higher positions making it impossible to get things done correctly. Everyone has zero initiative or accountability for their work. Turnover is extremely high due to the lack of training. Every department runs themselves without keeping in mind the best interest of the company.

      Better than WilCo

      Quality assurance specialist
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      When NOV purchased WilCo, things began to improve. The regime was ill-equipped to manage anything, yet alone a manufacturing and fabrication plant.

      Cons

      The biggest con was the ineptitude of management. The "good old boy" mentality was strong with this one. And SOOOO much nepotism.
