A frozen foot in the door to the oil field.

Pros

One of the best benefit packages out there. When things are booming, there's plenty of overtime available. The field supervisors are very good to work for, however there tends to be some people who believe that there is favoritism occurring. Most of that is just sour grapes. If you work hard and have a good attitude you were treated very fair. Cathedral has been thinning the herd lately so that is helping get rid of some of the dead weight.

Cons

The starting pay is incredibly low for the amount of work required. Especially for the fact that you are out in the elements and away from home for such a long time. there are also some location supervisors who tend to supervise from the window of the office trailer.

Pros

Decent pay. Meet a lot of different people. Potential to make good money.

Cons

Gone for at least 4 weeks at a time, so you live at a camp or hotel and go home for vacation. Doesn't pay for you to travel to and from work when going on or coming off days off. Could live and start working in Pennsylvania and next time you go to work, could have you go to North Dakota and you have to pay for gas or the plane ticket. Pays less than most companies starting out. A lot of old equipment.

Pros

My ONE coworker was amazing. That is all.

Cons

Where to start... This was a horrible place to work. The company as a whole, is all talk and no doing. They talk about being fair, diverse, and equal... they are not. I never been treated so unfairly before. I was demeanded on a daily basis, told my opinion doesn't matter, and nothing I contributed was ever good enough for my boss or my management. I was promised advancement and empowerment and all I felt was a ceiling, a very low ceiling. I was restricted from creativity and constantly put in place when I thought outside of the box. Cathedral is 100% stuck in the 'old boys oil and gas club' from the 1960's and they need to snap out of it. The executive team struggles for power, and struggles to keep calm at th best of times. There were a number of times when I saw executives 'lose it' on their employees for reasons I don't want to get into on here. In the year that I was there, I saw them hire great people and those great people were either walked out because they were a threat or they left on their own terms because they easily found out what a joke this company was. The corporate culture is weak. So weak. The staff try to engage and be motivated to make it a great place to be but there is no hope. The executives are always too busy and there is no sense of team at the offices. People go days without talking to one another and quite frankly, administrative positons don't even want to be at headquarters due to it's toxic environment. Simply put, steer clear of this place. If you have goals, dreams and are ambitions you are better than this place.
