Pros

Opportunities abound if you are willing to move around. Wide variety of jobs touching all aspects of the oil and gas industry.

Cons

Lots of 'old school' thinking permiates the company. Very rigid, and slow to adapt to a fast changing market. Lots of 'leaders' lack leadership abilities, and vision is very short-sighted.
