Pros

A collaborative environment where the majority of people want to help. Lots of international & racial diversity which can be seen in their approach to problem solving. A lot of company benefits that one could take advantage of such as Hinge or Omada virtual health. Plenty of community service activities.

Cons

This is a company with no work-life balance. Lives up to the reputation of consuming people and discarding them like trash. Boundaries are constantly violated. Majority of people have had heart attacks and other serious stress induced life threatening illnesses as a result. Constant layoffs despite performance has the employee morale low. People work extremely hard based out of fear and fear is the main fact of why they're still there. You also find the usual discrimination that you find at any corporate American oil and gas service company.

Pros

Good people at the local level. The work is engaging and challenging.

Cons

Too many to count. Career advancements are extremely limited. Pay raises are minimal and don't get close to keeping up with inflation even for top performers. At the corporate level they are using acquisitions to hide massive layoffs. They return billions in profit to investors consistently, but there is still a constant threat of layoffs and multiyear freezes on pay raises even with inflation and solid corporate profit.
