      Drilling Engineer

      Pros

      Competitive pay. Do not need to come into work every other Friday (9/80 schedule). People are friendly. Good benefits and training programs.

      Cons

      So many processes. So many acronyms. The work is essentially pre planned for you. The work flow for designing the wells is essentially laid out for you. There are essntially about 300 boxes that must be checked before certain deadlines, and as long as you do your little piece of the puzzle then everything will be ok. That may be true at other large companies, but it certainly doesn't make one feel like they're doing much on their own. Then there's the whole fact that we're drilling in the Arctic and all the corporate double talk that all the major O & G companies are guilty of.

      No Loyalty to employees

      Logistic coordinator
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      High pay. Decent health Benefits.

      Cons

      Poor Business decisions, no loyalty to employees. Management is underqualified for positions held. Leadership is appointed by who they know, not what they know.
