It could have been better

Pros

Great training emphasis on safety opportunities for promotion and growth

Cons

Extremely political Management changes every couple of years so you wind up with people who have no idea what they're doing and by the time they do they're moved elsewhere. Promise of growth and a variety of positions but those are limited to either sales or operations. Strong emphasis on culture but it's beat down by all the politics

Pros

Energetic, motivated environment, technology based, strong support of petrotechnical people (larger salaries, technical communities, technical career, strong training and development), You determine how far you want to go with the company. If your ambitions are high and you have the material, the company will support you all the way - and gives you more and more (responsibilities, work, etc.) until the employee says stop.

Cons

Work-life balance suffers, it is now a big company that follows many interests (such as those from share holders),
