Pros

They are willing to train employees at almost any cost and the training is top-notch. They took me from knowing absolutely nothing about the oilfield, fast tracked me from Field Specialist trainee to FS1 to FS2 to FS3 (senior field specialist) in just a little under 3 years.

Cons

They treated their field personel terrible. Passed company policies from the main office in Sugarland with little or no regard to their their employees. The layoffs (of which I survived) were extremely cruel. They wanted me to transfer away from my home of 15 years to an unknown location with a future that was uncertain at best. I quit to persue other possiblilties.
