Pros

Not a bad place to work Compensation is pretty decent Nice facilities to work in at corporate headquarters Small town feel of Midland is good for families

Cons

There are many areas for improvement in the employee relations aspect. At times it feels as if you are just an employee and that they're just trying to take as much from you as they can but such is the nature of the business environment
