Pros
1) Used to be a great place to work with a 'community spirit' buzz and reasonable opportunities to develop a career. 2) Management used to have good focus on personnel development and the company used to provide training opportunities for all levels.
Cons
1) Volatility of oil and gas industry in which the company operates 2) No loyalty to employees that have worked and contributed for 10, 20, 30, 40+ years. Sadly, soo many colleagues have been laid-off despite broad perception that the company could do more for its people or ride out the storm of the global pandemic / recession with less numbers axed! Some bold decisions were made to change market strategies, but no follow-through plan in place to retain or re-train majority of the loyal employees . 3) People are worked to the bone! Sadly it makes all the (otherwise good) HSE spiel seem like a crass joke especially w.r.t. mental health and well-being of employees
