Current Employee – been working at Rowan Companies full-time for more than a year

Pros – This career is setting me off on a course for great success at an early age.
I have been given the ability to travel the world and work with people from all walks of life.
Currently I am working under a great leader who expects a spirit of excellence and is an example to all that surround them.

Cons – There is not always an adequate amount of time between projects and an unsure time that is known to be away from loved ones. Long stints of travel are expected and could be resolved with a backup and scheduled time to travel home.

Advice to Senior Management – Give more time between projects or hire more project employees. Allot adequate time to plan for an upgrade. This is not easy as Operations change day to day but it puts a hardship on the company when work needs to be done with an unclear scope of work expected to be completed in an already short amount of time.

Former Employee – worked at Rowan Companies

Pros – Solid company with good management and leadership overall. Each department had it's strengths and weaknesses, but overall it runs pretty well.

Cons – Depending on the team or department you're in, there may not be any room for advancement. Tuition reimbursement is relatively small compared to other companies that offer it. But there are also a lot of companies that don't offer it at all.

Advice to Senior Management – As with most companies, it is always important to truly listen to the people all the way down the corporate ladder and not just to the managers.
