Pros

99.5% awesome people, very laid back, flexible time, compressed work week, stock, bonuses, yearly raises, business casual dress attire, matching 401k, paid holidays and plenty of vacation/sick time.

Cons

No cons if you have the right manager. Worst place to work if you're put under a manager who can hardly read and write at a 1st grade level, micromanages everything and doesn't know his job responsibilities or how to do their job, let alone yours.

Pros

The benefits were excellent, including medical, dental, and vision coverage. When I was hired in 2010, PTO was determined by a combination of age and tenure. By the time I left in December 2016, I had accumulated about five weeks of vacation.

Cons

In 2017, upper management decided to close the Tyler, TX division, which had been operating for at least 17 years. I had planned to retire from EOG, but that decision changed everything. I was given the choice to relocate or be laid off. Because I could not afford the cost of moving, I was laid off, which had a significant negative impact on my life. It took me more than two years to find another job in the oil and gas industry in Tyler, TX.
