Cons

Managers are military like They do not like different ideas from their own plan to work 18-22 hours a day on an oil rig for 2-3 weeks straight without going home your personal life is shot to hell if you have children don't plan on having any quality time with them for the first 7 years

Pros

Very challenging projects, incredibly smart and talented co-workers, only recruit the best. Can be very rewarding if you have the support of your management and you're able to succeed. Extreme focus on safety.

Cons

Work:Life ratio very difficult especially if you have children. Lots of "red tape" to traverse at times. Some managers are EXTREMELY difficult to work for, and develop very large egoes.
