Pros
Insurance and a steady paycheck
Cons
The I.T. department doesn't recognize outstanding performers only recognizes those who do just enough to get by. Over worked and under paid.
Advice to Management
Get it together! The turn over in the place is ridiculous, employees that don't know how to do their job or skim by are kept and the employees that give their all 24/7-365 are canned. Solutions to problems are brought up to managers and the input is not even taken into consideration, therefore, nothing will ever change. It's an un-organized mess. Pay attention, value and keep the hardworking employees you still have left, those kind of people are hard to come by...as far as the ones who got let go...it's Nabors loss and another companies gain.

Pros
I don't have any complaints about Nabors outside of working in the energy industry.

Only legitimate complaint is the volatility of the oil and gas industry.

Pros
You will get a ton of experience with Oracle, .NET, and SQL, plus learn all the business processes, because you'll be doing everyone else's work. Your manager (who will almost certainly be from India) will kindly relieve you of the burden of receiving any credit for your accomplishments.
Cons
So many! HB1 applicants who can't understand anything or perform the basic functions of the job they were hired to do, constant undertones of politics/backstabbing, developers and analysts clawing over each other trying to gain favor with management, flagrant nepotism, unethical hiring practices, unrealistic expectations, lack of vision, lack of communication, lack of common sense. I could go on all day. This place is like working in a real-life Dilbert comic! Realized my mistake on day 1 and found another job ASAP.
Advice to Management
Making the building look nice, rather than fixing the problems with the company really is the hallmark of where your priorities lie: status-symbols are more important than people.
