Pros
It’s a great company to work for with excellent benefits!
Cons
Many projects are started with unrealistic deadlines that cannot be met and are abandoned before competition. This can lead to frustration for the team that worked hard to try to meet the deadline having put in many extra hours to try to get it completed.
Advice to Management
Don’t over promise to the business side.

Pros
Great benefits, free food, 1/2 day Fridays
Cons
Middle management disconnect, poor training, VERY poor system, overall disorganization.
Advice to Management
There's high turnover in accounting for a reason. Job duties and expectations are not accurately (or truthfully) disclosed in the interview. I would recommend Pioneer as a company, but would advise others to stay far away from accounting.

Pros
Great environment, the company hires extremly intelligent people so everyone is a go getter and very willing to work above and beyond expectations.
Cons
It's the oil & gas industry so there seems to be lots of volitility. They've sold off many assets and most recently had massive layoffs and divestitures of over 1000 people, who were all excellent and contibuted at higher levels ! There's a feeling of uncertainty at the present time.
Advice to Management
Its definitely better to cut out some of the perks over cutting people, which then increases the workload for those of us who are still here.
