Pros

Working on the treating side is a Monday through Friday work week which is almost unheard of in the oil field. Also the local management looks out for their employees welfare.

Cons

It is a typical corporation, too many cheifs and not enough indians. All that uppper management seems to do is hire more managers and pat them selves on the back for it. Upper management has a very bad habit of lying to employees regardless if it is in writhing or not. I am legacy Champion and we are under paid compared to Legacy Nalco hands and were promised a raise to their level over a year ago an it never happened. Also for such a large corporation the health insurance is horrible. It was cheaper for me to find external insurance and the insurance was better.

Pros

At first it was a great place to work. We had a great support team and great communication to the field. We seamed to have a group that cared, and tried to all help out.

Cons

Lack of advancement opportunities due to new hires being promoted above Sr. personnel based on connections within the company. Newer upper management that values internal politics and internal connections over seniority and experience. Absolute dishonesty of leadership when faced with being in the wrong, or when faced with any type of difficult situation. Management that is extremely hard to reach and in a very short time forgot what it was like to be in the field. Management that is extremely not understanding when it comes to the differences from the office to the field.
